Hello everyone,

I am new in odoo (v.8) module developing and trying to make a custom module to add some functionality for my business. I have the following code

__init__.py

 # -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
import controllers
import models

__openerp__.py

 # -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
{
    'name': "Cambridge Weight Plan",

    'summary': """
        Cambridge Weight Plan Extra Features""",

    'description': """PRF informations and measurements are recorded for each customer.
    """,

    'author': "GDJ Club",
    'website': "http://www.gdjclub.com",

    # Categories can be used to filter modules in modules listing
 # for the full list 'category': 'Tools', 'version': '0.1', # any module necessary for this one to work correctly 'depends': ['base', 'sale', 'crm'], # always loaded 'data': [
 'templates.xml',  ], # only loaded in demonstration mode 'demo': [  ], }

models.py
 
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*- from openerp import models, fields, api class cambridge(models.Model): #Inhertis the model product.template _inherit = 'res.partner' #Creates two new fields (CostPrice and ShippingCost) in the model product.template measDate = fields.Date('Starting Date') measHeight = fields.Float('Height') measWeightStart = fields.Float('Starting Weight') measWaist = fields.Float('Waist') measBmi = fields.Float('BMI')

templates.xml

 <openerp>
    <data>
        <record id="view_product_form_inherit" model="ir.ui.view">
            <field name="name">res.partner.form.inherit</field>
            <field name="model">res.partner</field>
            <field name="inherit_id" ref="base.view_partner_form"/>
            <field name="arch" type="xml">
		<!--Adds a new page (tab) to the view after the tab Information -->
                <xpath expr="//page[@string='Internal Notes']" position="before">
                    <page name="Sample" string="PR">
			<group>
                            <group>
                                <field name="measDate"/>
                                <field name="measHeight"/>
                                <field name="measWeightStart"/>
                            </group>
		            <group>
                                <field name="measWaist"/>
                                <field name="measBmi"/>
                            </group>
                        </group>
		    </page>
		</xpath>
            </field>
        </record>
    </data>
</openerp>

When I try to install the module it throughs this in Trackback

Although it is not going on in the installation the fields from the models.py are added in the field list (Database Structure -> Fields)  But in the "Type" says "base" and the "In Modules" is empty. I cannot use them nor delete them.

Is it something wrong in the code? Anything you suggest will help.

Thank you in advance.

It seems the Waist and BMI fields were added later. Restart the server and upgrade the module. Usually, these fields should be added to product.template, not res.partner.

Hi Dimitris,

You made a big mistake

Your question is saying you want to add inherit product template and models and views you have used inherit partner.

Your code seems correct

Try to upgrade your module from terminal

when you start your server append these two attributes at the end

-d database_name -u module_name

Suggestion:

when you create or inherit model than give the file and class name related to it.

Here, In your case you have given your file name as models.py which is not good.

You have inherited res.partner model and you have given description that you are going to inherit product

You cannot mix everything togather.

If you are inheriting partner model than give the file name as the same name which is already given where that model has been defined.

which res_partner.py

give the class name res_partner

Otherwise your code is correct it will add those fields in partner view.

Hope this will helps.

Regards,

Anil.
