I want to have a send by mail action to a model attaching the binary field to the mail.
It should be able to send to a custom mail (not only from the users list)
it should delete the attachment after send.
So far i have:
@api.multi
def action_send_mail(self):
self.ensure_one()
attachment = {
'name': ("%s" %self.filename),
'datas': self.get_file_data(),
'datas_fname': self.filename,
'res_model': 'my.model',
'type': 'binary'
}
id = self.env['ir.attachment'].create(attachment)
email_template = self.env.ref('my.email_template_example')
email_template.attachment_ids = False
email_template.attachment_ids = [(4,id.id)]
ir_model_data = self.env['ir.model.data']
try:
template_id = ir_model_data.get_object_reference('my', 'email_template_example')[1]
except ValueError:
template_id = False
try:
compose_form_id = ir_model_data.get_object_reference('my', 'email_compose_message_wizard_form')[1]
except ValueError:
compose_form_id = False
ctx = dict()
ctx.update({
'default_model': 'my.model',
'default_res_id': self.ids[0],
'default_use_template': bool(template_id),
'default_template_id': template_id,
'default_composition_mode': 'comment',
'attachment_ids': [(4,id.id)],
})
return {
'type': 'ir.actions.act_window',
'view_type': 'form',
'view_mode': 'form',
'res_model': 'mail.compose.message',
'views': [(compose_form_id, 'form')],
'view_id': compose_form_id,
'target': 'new',
'context': ctx,
}
And I have created mail template like this:
</record>
<!--Email template -->
<record id="email_template_my_module" model="mail.template">
<field name="name">Example - Send by Email</field>
<field name="email_from"></field>
<field name="subject"></field>
<field name="email_to"></field>
<field name="model_id" ref="model_my_module"/>
<field name="auto_delete" eval="True"/>
<field name="attachment_ids"></field>
<field name="body_html"><![CDATA[
<p>
I'm sending you the file as attachment
</p>
]]></field>
</record>
The mail get send only if I select a recipient from the existing users. I cannot make it send to custom mail, I've been trying to override 'mail.compose.message' and 'mail.message' but no success.
Where can I execute code for deleting the attachment after send?
