Odoo is the world's easiest all-in-one management software.
It includes hundreds of business apps:
Hello all,
When a new user create an account on our site, what is the easier way to be sure that the zip code is alway entered like :
G8E 5M7 (with capitals letters an a space)
and not like :
g8e5m7
g8e 5m7
G8e 5M7
etc.
Do you have an idea of an easy method to manage it? Or should i dive in python once again?
You could do it using a mask on the input field and normally in combination with a regular expression to validate the format in js and in python to avoid mistakes, you will be ok

Thanks Axel. Would you know in which file I should work in odoo 8 to put this code?
I would say that I have to install myself the jQuery Mask Plugin. Is it the case?
I would try in base/static/src/js/apps.js because in base/res is res_partner so this is the best place to start or as separate module .... but i'm not an expert :) (i'm a total amateur)
thanks again. I'll see all of this.
Here is our complete solution. Thanks to Dr Obx and Axel.
1) Download jquery mask plugin
2) Install it in ourmodule/static/src/js
3) Load the script
<template id="ourmodule.assets_frontend" inherit_id="website.assets_frontend" name="Shop">
<xpath expr="." position="inside">
<script type="text/javascript" src="/website_lapagept/static/src/js/website_sale_clear_cart.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="/website_lapagept/static/src/js/jquery-mask-plugin-master/src/jquery.mask.js"></script>
</xpath>
</template>
4) Add this in the file ourmodule/static/src/js/jquery-mask-plugin-master/src/jquery.mask.js
$(document).ready(function(){// $('.zipcode').mask('A0A 0A0'); $('.zipcode').mask('Y9Y 9Y9', {'translation': { 9: {pattern: /[0-9]/}, Y: {pattern: /[A-Z]/}}
});
});
5) Add the correct .zipcode class to the field that should have the mask
<div t-attf-class="form-group #{error.get('zip') and 'has-error' or ''} col-lg-6"><label class="control-label" for="zip">Code postal</label>
<input type="text" name="zip" class="form-control zipcode" t-att-value="checkout.get('zip')"/></div>
AND ALSO
<div t-attf-class="form-group #{error.get('shipping_zip') and 'has-error' or ''} col-lg-6"><label class="control-label" for="shipping_zip" style="font-weight: normal">Zip / Postal Code</label>
<input type="text" name="shipping_zip" class="form-control zipcode" t-att-value="checkout.get('shipping_zip', '')" t-att-readonly=" 'readonly' if shipping_id >= 0 else ''"/></div>
And it works fine!
Exactly as you do it
1. Use the live chat to ask your questions.
2. The operator answers within a few minutes.
In my case (custom module) I did it that way:
post = record.buyer_postcode.strip(' ') code = "%s %s" %(post[:-3].strip(), post[-3:]) postcode = code.upper() record.write({'buyer_postcode': postcode.upper()})So if you want you can modify py, add action "Validate" or something ....But in your case it will be better use jQuery as Axel suggested.
Thanks a lot!
post = record.buyer_postcode.strip(' ')# striping postcode to get only string of characters and digits code = "%s %s" %(post[:-3].strip(), post[-3:])#joining it back with one space between postcode = code.upper()# changing to uppercase record.write({'buyer_postcode': postcode.upper()})# writing new value into the field or database
