Hello,

You can override create and write method for an object.

Ex:

class MyClass(...):

    def create(cr, uid, vals, context=None):
        # Your logic goes here or call your method
        res_id = super(MyClass, self).create(cr, uid, vals, context=context)
        # Your logic goes here or call your method
        return res_id

    def write(cr, uid, ids, vals, context=None):
        # Your logic goes here or call your method
        super(MyClass, self).write(cr, uid, ids, vals, context=context)
        # Your logic goes here or call your method
        return True

Create method will be called when you are creating a new record.

If you are updating any existing record, write method will be called.

In odoo 9 ,


            create a button in xml view file,

<button string="details" type="object" class="oe_highlight oe_right" name="save" icon="fa-fire" ></button>

     

Create a save method in py file


@api.multi

def save(self):

 ... your code...

    a = self._cr

     print a

    if a:

         print "success"

    else:

         print "false"

    return a


Output:

success: <openerp.sql_db.Cursor object at 0x7f74a07149d0>

Thanks for your help;

In the fact I mean the "save" button is not created by us;

I mean when user click the "create" button which exits on every app/module, then the user go into the "form" view and use will get a "save" button which is not created by us but Odoo;

Now I want to execute some certain function when user clicks this "save" button.

I am using a compute field for this purpose.

add simply the following in the model


def _perform_compute_action(self):
     # Your Statements
     pass
action_compute = fields.Char(compute='_perform_compute_action')

thanks for your reply;

it is ok most time; but it can't work when you set "action_compute" as "readonly"="1";

The compute field becomes readonly field automatically. The purpose of "action_compute" is only to work the method. You don't use that field for other purpose .
