My custom module does not appears on my openerp 7 installation
module, odoo, python, ubuntu-12.04
Solution
You module work perfectly. "Update modules list" and searched through "Not installed" filters not include "Extra", you will find your module.
There are many changes from 6.1 to 7 version. First when you intall your module in 7, then you have to do some changes in your module. Like:
Change in you openerp.py file, Now
"update_xml" replace with "data"
"init_xml" removed,used in directly in data just put <data noupdate="1"> in xml
"demo xml" replace with "demo"
"active" removed, installable is ok
And from your view.xml file remove `" <field name="type">tree</field>"`
Your code work perfectly.
Thanks
Problem
I have a custom module i made for openerp 6.1 originally, i wanted to install it on another openerp server i got, using the latest openerp 7 version. I already did "Update modules list" and searched through "Extra" and "Not installed" filters, but no success. I've read somewhere that openerp 6.1 modules aren't exactly the same on openerp 7 Could omebody show some light on this? Also the documentation about custom modules on openerp 7 is really poor at the moment. Here's my `__init__.py` ``` import schoolsout ``` `__openerp__.py` ``` { "name" : "Student Information", "version" : "6.0.1", "author" : "Koci", "website" : "http://www.tuespacioweb.com.ve", "category" : "General", "depends" : ["base"], "description" : "Certificados de NO Produccion Grafibond", "init_xml" : [], "demo xml" : [], "update_xml" : [ "schoolsout_view.xml"], "installable": True, "active": False, "certificate" : "" ``` } `schoolsout.py` ``` from openerp.osv import fields, orm class student(orm.Model): _name = 'student.student' _columns = { 'name' : fields.char('Student Name', size=16, required = True, translate=True), 'age' : fields.integer('Age',readonly = True), 'percent' : fields.float('Percentage',help = 'This field will add average marks of student out of 100.'), 'gender' : fields.selection([('male','Male'),('female','Female')],'Gender'), 'active' : fields.boolean('Active'), 'notes' : fields.text('Details'), } _defaults = { 'name' : 'Atul', 'active' : True, } ``` student_student() and finally the schoolsout_view.xml ``` <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> ``` ``` <!-- Student search view --> <record model="ir.ui.view" id="student_search"> <field name="name">student.search</field> <field name="model">student.student</field> <field name="type">search</field> <field name="arch" type="xml"> <search string="Student Information Search" version="7.0"> <field name="name" string="Student Name" /> <field name="gender" string="Gender" /> <field name="age" string="Age" /> </search> </field> </record> <!-- Student tree view --> <record id="student_student_tree" model="ir.ui.view"> <field name="name">student.result.tree.new</field> <field name="model">student.student</field> <field name="type">tree</field> <field name="arch" type="xml"> <tree string="Student_result" version="7.0"> <field name="name" /> <field name="age" /> <field name="percent" /> <field name="gender" /> <field name="active" /> </tree> </field> </record> <!--Student Form View--> <record id="student_student_form" model="ir.ui.view"> <field name="name">student.result.form</field> <field name="model">student.student</field> <field name="type">form</field> <field name="arch" type="xml"> <form string="Student_result" version="7.0"> <field name="name" /> <field name="age" /> <field name="percent" /> <field name="gender" /> <field name="active" /> <field name="notes" /> </form> </field> </record> <!-- Student Action--> <record id="action_student_student" model="ir.actions.act_window"> <field name="name">Student Information</field> <field name="res_model">student.student</field> <field name="view_type">form</field> <field name="view_mode">tree,form</field> </record> <!--Student Menu--> <menuitem id="student_parent" name="Student" icon="terp-partner"/> <menuitem id="menu_student_parent" name="Student Management" parent="student_parent"></menuitem> <menuitem action="action_student_student" id="menu_student_student" parent="menu_student_parent" string="Result"/> </data> ``` Any advice would be very appreciated, thank you very much
