Try to get value of the selection field ::

categ = self.browse(cr, uid, ids[0]).sec_catoegory
categ_val = dict(self._columns['sec_catoegory'].selection).get(categ)
print categ_val

How do you format your code snippet as code?

This always gets the result in English.

If you also want the value to be translated:

Add this method to browse_record class in server/openerp/osv/orm.py:

    def sel_val(self, field):
        if field not in self._data.setdefault('sel_vals', {}):
            selection = dict(self.pool.get(self._table_name).fields_get(self._cr, self._uid, [field], context=self._context)[field]['selection'])
            self._data['sel_vals'][field] = selection
        return self._data['sel_vals'][field][getattr(self, field)]

And use it like this:

<t>

self.browse(cr, uid, id).sel_val('sec_catoegory')

</t>

Don't forget to specify the right language in the context of browse() if you want your selection values to be translated:

<t>

self.browse(cr, uid, id, context={'lang': some_partner.lang}).sel_val('sec_catoegory')

self.browse(cr, uid, id, context={'lang': 'ru_RU'}).sel_val('sec_catoegory')

</t>

This gets the translated result.

Any way to get something similar without changing the source code? I'd like to get the value in a specific language like you do.

Beto Martinez

I know it a little late but you can use this method

category_id = self.browse(cr, uid, id)

category = dict(category_id.fields_get(["sec_catoegory"],['selection'])['sec_catoegory']["selection"]).get(category_id.sec_catoegory)
