Enterprise Module Structure In Odoo, a module represents a unit of functionality that can be added to the Odoo system to extend its features or customize its behavior. Each module typically consists of various components, such as models, views, controllers, security rules, data files, and more. Lets dive into the structure of a module in Odoo 17
Enterprise
Enterprise Module Manifest File (__manifest__.py) Every module in Odoo must have a manifest file, which is a Python file named __manifest__.py. This file contains metadata about the module, such as its name, version, dependencies, description, and other information required by Odoo.
Enterprise Models (models directory) The models directory contains Python files defining the data models used by the module. Each model typically corresponds to a database table and defines the fields and behavior of the objects stored in that table.
Enterprise Views (views directory) The views directory contains XML files defining the user interface components associated with the module. Views define how data from the models is presented to users in the Odoo interface, including forms, lists, kanbans, and other UI elements.
Enterprise Controllers (controllers directory) The controllers directory contains Python files defining controllers, which handle HTTP requests and responses for web pages associated with the module. Controllers allow you to define custom web routes and handle user interactions with the module's functionality.
Enterprise Security Rules (security directory) The security directory contains XML files defining access control rules for the module. Security rules specify who can read, write, create, or delete records in the module's models based on user roles and permissions.
Enterprise Data Files (data directory) The data directory contains XML files used to import or export data associated with the module. Data files can include sample records, default values, configurations, and other data needed for the module to function properly.
Enterprise Assets (static directory) The static directory contains static assets such as CSS, JavaScript, images, and other files used for styling and scripting the module's user interface. Static assets are typically used in custom views or web pages associated with the module.
Enterprise Wizard (wizard directory) The wizard directory contains Python files defining wizards, which are user interfaces used to gather information or perform actions in a step-by-step manner. Wizards are typically used for complex operations that require user input or confirmation
Enterprise Report (report directory): The report directory contains XML files defining reports generated by the module. Reports can include PDF documents, Excel spreadsheets, or other formats presenting data from the module's models in a structured format.
Enterprise Localization Files (i18n directory) The i18n directory contains translation files for the module. Localization files allow you to provide translations for the module's user interface elements and other text strings in multiple languages.
Enterprise Tests (tests directory) The tests directory contains Python files defining unit tests for the module. Unit tests help verify that the module's components (models, controllers, views, etc.) function correctly and handle various scenarios as expected. Unit testing is crucial for ensuring the reliability, robustness, and maintainability of the module's codebase.
