Odoo is the world's easiest all-in-one management software.
It includes hundreds of business apps:
Say I have a python class from odoo that inherits 'res.partner' to add a number of fields to the model.
To improve overall code clearness I want to separate that file into two pieces. So in my module I will have two python files that both inherit res.partner. However, when I inherit res.partner again I get an error saying that there is a column missing (the first field in the second python file).
How can I inherit from the same model twice within the same custom module?
Already solved my own problem:
It is possible to inherit the same base model in the same custom module. Just make sure your xml import (If you split those up as well) are in the correct order.
You can inherit the same base model twice or thrice or any number of times, just ensure the class name is different from other, that way inheritance will not be overlapped..
For example
class ResPartner(models.Model):
_inherit = 'res.partner'
...
class ResPartner2(models.Model):
_inherit = 'res.partner'
...
class ResPartner3(models.Model): _inherit = 'res.partner'
...
