Odoo offers a way to scaffold a module with the built-in command line. If you are new to Odoo development, the created module still lacks some features for reference. That’s why I create this Odoo module boilerplate.
List of features:
- Create a custom model with:
- Kanban, tree, and form.
- Search views with custom Group By, Filter, Search condition.
- Auto-generated sequence Name field.
- Inherit product.template table to add new field and show it in XML template.
- Add custom action to custom model.
- Add custom report (html format).
- Add fields to Settings page.
- Controllers to show detail custom model info.
- Confirmed working with Odoo 12.
What to do after downloading the source code:
- Change module folder’s name.
- Modify settings in
__manifest__.py
file. - Search and replace the custom model product.resource (product_resource for views) with yours.
- Remove the function you don’t use.
