Hi kumar,

   First you need to create a template for your email ,settings->email->template-> create -> Name-(User defined), Applies to- description to model, model- model for creating email, and you can give acces rights, on the content tab you need create the template. In email configuration you need to configure your email address for sender and receiver. And in advanced setting you have an option that you can add a attachment automatically by giving the optional report to print or attach and save the template.

Hi,

in function you call by pushing your button, when you call method send_mail of model email_template ((module email_template), add in context all informations you need to build your pdf and id of the email in a list with key 'add_pdf': [email_id, 'file_name.pdf', ....]. for function parameter 'force_send'  set value True, then the method send of mail_mail model module mail) will be called by inheriting the context.

In this function, variable attachments contains files to send with code:


# load attachment binary data with a separate read(), as prefetching all

# `datas` (binary field) could bloat the browse cache, triggerring

# soft/hard mem limits with temporary data.

attachment_ids = [a.id for a in mail.attachment_ids]

attachments = [(a['datas_fname'], base64.b64decode(a['datas']))

for a in ir_attachment.read(cr, SUPERUSER_ID, attachment_ids,

     ['datas_fname', 'datas'])]


you should override after this code in your module by overriding method send:

+ test if key 'add_pdf' is in the context

+ if yes test email_id of the key 'add_pdf' with current email_id of function send of the for loop.

+ if yes, call your function which genarates your pdf using informations you have in key 'add_pdf' and had tuple ('file_name.pdf', file) to the variable attachments list

bye

The answers provided here is for odoo 10 or below;

Here is a sample code done to generate Pdf and save to attachment using render_qweb_pdf for sending mail: 

def generate_report_file(self, id):
        pdf = self.env.ref('mymodule.action_report_labtest').render_qweb_pdf(id)[0]
        pdf = base64.b64encode(pdf)
        return pdf
So, you can return pdf as a binary to any binary field as this;
self.binary_field = self.generate_report_file(idoftherecord.id)

You can attach it to an attachment like this;
report_binary = self.generate_report_file(LabObj.id)
attachmentObj = self.env['ir.attachment'].create({
                'name': attachment_name,
                'type': 'binary',
                'datas': report_binary,
                'datas_fname': attachment_name + '.pdf',
                'store_fname': attachment_name,
                'res_model': self._name,
                'res_id': self.id,
                'mimetype': 'application/x-pdf'
            })
