wizard

Luis Filipe Castanheira

I'm trying to implement a wizard that will update a form a then (if possible, send a signal to workflow to change status of an object, but that will be for later). I'm trying and trying, but I'm doing something wrong since I get stuck with this annoying error!

I've got these two files inside the "wizard" folder:
reformulate_wizard.py:
from openerp.osv import osv
from openerp.osv import fields
from openerp.tools.translate import _

class ref_generic_request(osv.osv_memory):
    _name='ref.generic.request'

    _columns = {
        'reformulation_info': fields.text('Reformulation instructions', help='Instructions for the requestor justification the reformulation needs'),
            }


    def save_info(self, cr, uid, ids, context=None):
        if 'active_id' in context:
            info=self.browse(cr,uid,ids)[0].reformulation_info
            self.pool.get('project.task').write(cr,uid,context['active_id'],
                                                 {'remaining_hours' : remaining_hrs})
        return {
                'type': 'ir.actions.act_window_close',
         }
ref_generic_request()

reformulate_wizard.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<openerp>
    <data>
        <record id="view_reformulate_generic_request_wizard" model="ir.ui.view">
            <field name="name">reformulate_generic_request_wizard.form</field>
            <field name="model">ref.generic.request</field>
            <field name="type">form</field>
            <field name="arch" type="xml">
                <form string="Insert reformulation info" version="7.0">

                        <field name="reformulation_info" string="Reformulation info"/>
                        <newline/>
                    </group>
                    <separator string="" colspan="4" />
                    <group colspan="4" col="6">
                        <button icon="gtk-cancel" special="cancel" string="Cancel"/>
                        <button icon="gtk-ok" name="save_info" string="Send to reformulation" type="object" />
                    </group>
               </form>
            </field>
        </record>
        <record id="action_reformulate_generic_request" model="ir.actions.act_window">
            <field name="name">Reformulate Request</field>
            <field name="type">ir.actions.act_window</field>
            <field name="res_model">ref.generic.request</field>
            <field name="view_type">form</field>
            <field name="view_mode">form</field>
            <field name="view_id" ref="view_reformulate_generic_request_wizard"/>
            <field name="target">new</field>
        </record>

        <act_window id="action_reformulate_generic_request"
                name="Reformulate Request"
                res_model="generic.request"
                view_mode="form"
                target="new"
        />

    </data>
</openerp>

And I didn't forget the __init__.py with the "import reformulate_wizard" in it.

I am calling the wizard from my xml view like this (and I guess that's where I'm getting the error):

<button name="%(reformulate_generic_request_wizard)d" string="Button that calls wizard" type="object" />

In my base folder I'm importing the wizard folder inside the __init__.py:

import parecer
import pedido_generico
import tracing
import wizard

And here is the content of my __openerp__.py (The error might be from the order I'm loading things):

    'name': 'Processos UC',
    'version': '0.1',
    'category': 'Tools',

             ],
    'installable': True,
    'images': [],
}

Here is the error message from the server logs.

Any help is more than welcome!

Your button type needs to be "action" when executing an action and the name should be the id of the action to trigger.

See: https://doc.openerp.com/6.0/developer/2_6_views_events/views/design_element/#button

Thanks for your answer. It solved that problem (I wasn't reading correctly the code, and I read it many times, believe me!).

Now I'm getting this strange error message when I click my button (I say strange because I don't have any occurrence of '111' anywhere in my code. And I did a `grep -R 111 *` to be sure!):

2014-05-15 14:00:49,986 3108 ERROR may_9 openerp.osv.osv: Uncaught exception

Any idea of wath might be causing this exception?

---------------------------------------------------------------

Ok, got it! I had the wrong name in the button, plus the wrong type!

<button name="%(action_reformulate_generic_request)d" string="Button that calls wizard" type="action" />

Solved it, and it is working fine now. Thanks, all for your help!

Kazim Mirza | Founder at TechUltra Solutions

<button name="%(reformulate_generic_request_wizard)d" string="Button that calls wizard" type="action" />

you have to write action_reformulate_generic_request in "%(reformulate_generic_request_wizard)d"
