Load image from url in odoo

In this blog we will give an example how to load image from url in odoo using http controller function

    so let us say that we made an integration with external api to get new customer data with is include image_url field and we want to save this image into odoo database , so first we must create function that takes the image_url as an input and return the image as data , second we can pass the image data to image field in res.partner object in odoo to create new customer with image , and the function can be just as bellow 

 

def load_image_from_url(self, url):
        data = base64.b64encode(requests.get(url.strip()).content).replace(b'\n', b'')
        return data

current url in odoo

 

if we want to get the server URL for the current odoo module we can get it as below
 

#for python model 

server_url = self.env['ir.config_parameter'].get_param('web.base.url')

 

#for http.controller

1/ from odoo.http import request

2/ server_url = request.env['ir.config_parameter'].get_param('web.base.url')

TypeError: Object of type datetime is not JSON serializable

 

This error "TypeError: Object of type datetime is not JSON serializable" happens when we try to convert data with date time into json dictionary , so to fix this error we have to convert the data to string first then put it in the dictionary and then we can convert the dictionary to json format
...
for example if we want to create api with odoo to return the data for sale order , so we can put the sale order data as bellow 

order_data = {
            'id':order_id.id,
            'name':order_id.name,
            'customer':{'id':order_id.partner_id.id,'name':order_id.partner_id.name},
            'salesperson':{'id':order_id.user_id.id,'name':order_id.user_id.name},
            'date_order':str(order_id.date_order),
            'state':order_id.state,
            'products':order_products,
            'untaxed_amount':order_id.amount_untaxed,
            'total_tax': order_id.amount_tax,
            'total_amount':order_id.amount_total,
     }

return Response(json.dumps(order_data),headers=headers)

Display current company data

 In this blog we will explain how to display current company data in web page in odoo 14

First we can get the current company in the web page template by using
request.env.user.company_id


so we can show the current company logo by using 

<img t-if="request.env.user.company_id.logo" t-att-src="image_data_uri(request.env.user.company_id.logo)" style="max-height:45pt;max-width:90%" alt="Company Logo"/>

 

and we can show the current company name by using

<span t-esc="request.env.user.name"/>

and so on to display each field in the model res.company
