If you look in module 'website_crm' you will find it does a very similar thing. you can follow same procedure based on your need. It creates leads from contact form, code looks like:
@http.route(['/crm/contactus'], type='http', auth="public", website=True)
def contactus(self, **kwargs):
def dict_to_str(title, dictvar):
ret = "\n\n%s" % title
for field in dictvar:
ret += "\n%s" % field
return ret
_TECHNICAL = ['show_info', 'view_from', 'view_callback'] # Only use for behavior, don't stock it
_BLACKLIST = ['id', 'create_uid', 'create_date', 'write_uid', 'write_date', 'user_id', 'active'] # Allow in description
_REQUIRED = ['name', 'contact_name', 'email_from', 'description'] # Could be improved including required from model
post_file = [] # List of file to add to ir_attachment once we have the ID
post_description = [] # Info to add after the message
values = {}
values['medium_id'] = request.registry['ir.model.data'].xmlid_to_res_id(request.cr, SUPERUSER_ID, 'crm.crm_medium_website')
values['section_id'] = request.registry['ir.model.data'].xmlid_to_res_id(request.cr, SUPERUSER_ID, 'website.salesteam_website_sales')
for field_name, field_value in kwargs.items():
if hasattr(field_value, 'filename'):
post_file.append(field_value)
elif field_name in request.registry['crm.lead']._fields and field_name not in _BLACKLIST:
values[field_name] = field_value
elif field_name not in _TECHNICAL: # allow to add some free fields or blacklisted field like ID
post_description.append("%s: %s" % (field_name, field_value))
if "name" not in kwargs and values.get("contact_name"): # if kwarg.name is empty, it's an error, we cannot copy the contact_name
values["name"] = values.get("contact_name")
# fields validation : Check that required field from model crm_lead exists
error = set(field for field in _REQUIRED if not values.get(field))
if error:
values = dict(values, error=error, kwargs=kwargs.items())
return request.website.render(kwargs.get("view_from", "website.contactus"), values)
# description is required, so it is always already initialized
if post_description:
values['description'] += dict_to_str(_("Custom Fields: "), post_description)
if kwargs.get("show_info"):
post_description = []
environ = request.httprequest.headers.environ
post_description.append("%s: %s" % ("IP", environ.get("REMOTE_ADDR")))

post_description.append("%s: %s" % ("REFERER", environ.get("HTTP_REFERER")))
values['description'] += dict_to_str(_("Environ Fields: "), post_description)
if kwargs.get('feedback') == 'i':
lead_id = self.create_lead(request, dict(values, user_id=False), kwargs)
else:
lead_id = self.create_claim(request, dict(values, user_id=False), kwargs)
values.update(lead_id=lead_id)
if lead_id:
for field_value in post_file:
attachment_value = {
'name': field_value.filename,
'res_name': field_value.filename,
'res_model': 'crm.lead',
'res_id': lead_id,
'datas': base64.encodestring(field_value.read()),
'datas_fname': field_value.filename,
}
request.registry['ir.attachment'].create(request.cr, SUPERUSER_ID, attachment_value, context=request.context)
return self.get_contactus_response(values, kwargs)
