Extended view inheritance

This module was written to make it simple to add custom operators for view inheritance.

Table of contents

Usage

Change a python dictionary (context for example)

<field position="attributes">
    <attribute name="context" operation="update">
        {
            "key": "value",
        }
    </attribute>
</field>

Note that views are subject to evaluation of xmlids anyways, so if you need to refer to some xmlid, say %(xmlid)s.

Add text after and/or before than original

<attribute name="$attribute" operation="text_add">
    $text_before {old_value} $text_after
</attribute>

Add domain with AND/OR join operator (AND if missed) allowing conditional changes

<attribute name="$attribute" operation="domain_add"
           condition="$field_condition" join_operator="OR">
    $domain_to_add
</attribute>

Wrap loose text in an element for further processing

<wraptext expr="//some/node" position="text" element="span" />
<wraptext expr="//some/node/other_node" position="tail" element="div" />

which transforms

<some>
    <node>
        plain text 1
        <other_node />
        plain text2
    </node>
</some>

<some>
    <node>
        <span>plain text 1</span>
        <other_node />
        <div>plain text2</div>
    </node>
</some>

making those texts accessible for further operations

Known issues / Roadmap

Support an eval attribute for our new node types.
