While we previously used fields_get() to query a model and have been using an arbitrary model from the start, Odoo stores most model metadata inside a few meta-models which allow both querying the system and altering models and fields (with some limitations) on the flyover XML-RPC. #odooexternalapi #xmlrpc #odooxmlrpc #Introspection #Inspection #Odoo #External #API #Odoo […]
Records can be deleted in bulk by providing their ids to unlink(). #odooexternalapi #xmlrpc #odooxmlrpc url = ” db = ‘test_local_enterprise_db’ username = ’14’ password = ’14’ import xmlrpc.client common = xmlrpc.client.ServerProxy(‘{}/xmlrpc/2/common’.format(url)) version = common.version() print(“version”, version) uid = common.authenticate(db, username, password, {}) print(“uid = “,uid) models = xmlrpc.client.ServerProxy(‘{}/xmlrpc/2/object’.format(url)) delete_rec = models.execute_kw(db, uid, password, ‘res.partner’, […]
fields_get() can be used to inspect a model’s fields and check which ones seem to be of interest. Because it returns a large amount of meta-information (it is also used by client programs) it should be filtered before printing, the most interesting items for a human user are ‘string’ (the field’s label), ‘help’ (a help […]
Records can be updated using write(), it takes a list of records to update and mapping of updated fields to values similar to create(). #odooexternalapi #xmlrpc #odooxmlrpc url = ” db = ‘test_local_enterprise_db’ username = ’14’ password = ’14’ import xmlrpc.client common = xmlrpc.client.ServerProxy(‘{}/xmlrpc/2/common’.format(url)) version = common.version() print(“version”, version) uid = common.authenticate(db, username, password, {}) […]
Odoo requires users of the API to be authenticated before they can query most data. The xmlrpc/2/common endpoint provides meta-calls that don’t require authentication, such as the authentication itself or fetching version information. To verify if the connection information is correct before trying to authenticate, the simplest call is to ask for the server’s version. […]
Records of a model are created using create(). The method will create a single record and return its database identifier. create() takes a mapping of fields to values, used to initialize the record. For any field which has a default value and is not set through the mapping argument, the default value will be used. […]
#odooexternalapi How to list records using Odoo external API using XML-RPC, this short video details listing records in odoo. Records can be listed and filtered via search(). external-api code: url = ” db = ‘test_local_enterprise_db’ username = ’14’ password = ’14’ import xmlrpc.client common = xmlrpc.client.ServerProxy(‘{}/xmlrpc/2/common’.format(url)) version = common.version() print(“version”, version) uid = common.authenticate(db, username, […]
