I have installed Odoo 10 on Ubuntu and it works fine

I'm following the tutorial 'building a module' from the Odoo website  

https://www.odoo.com/documentation/10.0/howtos/backend.html#build-an-odoo-module

I have created an empty module with the the command:

odoo-bin scaffold openacademy addons


but when I try to import a module in to the xml file openacademy.xml I get the following error: 


Model not found: openacademy.course
Error context:
View `course.form`[view_id: 4867, xml_id: n/a, model: openacademy.course, parent_id: n/a]None" while parsing /opt/odoo/odoo-10.0/addons/openacademy/views/openacademy.xml:6, near<record model="ir.ui.view" id="course_form_view"> <field name="name">course.form</field> <field name="model">openacademy.course</field> <field name="arch" type="xml"> <form string="Course Form"> <sheet> <group> <field name="name"/> <field name="description"/> </group> </sheet> </form> </field> </record>

here is my files:


openacademy.xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

<odoo>

<data>

      <record model="ir.ui.view" id="course_form_view">

         <field name="name">course.form</field>

         <field name="model">openacademy.course</field>

         <field name="arch" type="xml">

              <form string="Course Form">

                    <sheet>

                          <group> <field name="name"/> <field name="description"/> </group>

                  </sheet>   

          </form>

      </field>

    </record>  

     </data>

</odoo> 


models.py

from odoo import models, fields, api
class Course(models.Model):
_name = 'openacademy.course'
name = fields.Char(string="Title", required=True)description = fields.Text()


__init__.py

from . import models

just create a module with your code, and it installed smoothly,. .

just change the indent of the models.py.
from odoo import models, fields
class Course(models.Model):
     _name = 'openacademy.course'
     name = fields.Char(string="Title", required=True)
     description = fields.Text("Description")
   

just add a  __manifest__.py file. .

__manifest__.py

{    
    'name': 'test',
    'version': '1.0',
    'category': 'test',
    'description': """test""",
    # 'website': 'https://www.odoo.com/page/accounting',
    'depends': ['base'],
    'data': [ 'openacademy.xml' ],
    'installable': True,
}

arrange everything like this and then try,

openacademy/models/models.py

from odoo import models, fields, api
class Course(models.Model):
    _name = 'openacademy.course'
    name = fields.Char(string="Title", required=True)
    description = fields.Text()

openacademy/views/openacademy.xml

<odoo>    
    <data>
        <record model="ir.actions.act_window" id="course_list_action">
            <field name="name">Courses</field>
            <field name="res_model">openacademy.course</field>
            <field name="view_type">form</field>
            <field name="view_mode">tree,form</field>
            <field name="help" type="html">
                <p class="oe_view_nocontent_create">Create the first course</p>
            </field>
        </record>
     
        <menuitem id="main_openacademy_menu" name="Open Academy"/>
        <menuitem id="openacademy_menu" name="Open Academy" parent="main_openacademy_menu"/> 
        <menuitem id="courses_menu" name="Courses" parent="openacademy_menu" action="course_list_action"/>
     </data>
</odoo>

openacademy/__manifest__.py

{
     'name': "Open Academy",
     'author': "My Company",
     'version': '0.1',
     'depends': ['base'],
     'data': [
         'views/openacademy.xml',
     ],
     'demo': []

openacademy/models/__init__.py

from . import models

openacademy/__init__.py

from . import models

I hope this will help you.

You simply need to restart your Odoo server. It will solve the problem.

I've added the indentation,

added 'views/openacademy.xml' into __manifest__.py

but still the view can't recognize the model !!


ParseError: "Invalid model name u'openacademy.course' in action definition.

None" while parsing /opt/odoo/odoo-10.0/addons/openacademy/views/openacademy.xml:5, near

<record model="ir.actions.act_window" id="course_list_action">

    <field name="name">Courses</field>

    <field name="res_model">openacademy.course</field>

    <field name="view_type">form</field>

    <field name="view_mode">tree,form</field>

    <field name="help" type="html">

        <p class="oe_view_nocontent_create">Create the first course</p>

    </field>

</record>
