Need to override the write() function to update the 'content' field. The value to be updated is returned by a function "read_from_doc". I get the value in text. But content field is not updated.Is this the right way of doing it?

Question

content = fields.Text('Content') @api.multi
def write(self, values):
library_write = super(Library, self).write(values)
text = self.read_from_doc()
values['content'] = text
print 'Passed this function. passed_override_write_function value: ' + str(
library_write)
return library_write

Hi,
Rewrite the function like this,
@api.multi
def  write ( self , values):
text = self .read_from_doc()
values[ 'content' ] = text
library_write = super (Library ,  self ).write(values)
return library_write
Thanks

After Calling super() you are trying to update values with 'content' it's wrong.
Before Calling the super()  you have to update values with 'content' field
@api.multi
def write(self, values):
values['content'] = self.read_from_doc()
return super(Library, self).write(values)
