Mail template to show destiny records in chatter.

Project description

Beta License: LGPL-3 OCA/server-ux Translate me on Weblate Try me on Runboat

This module provides an email template to show which target records have been modified by a source record.

Example: When a purchase order generates an invoice, the invoice contains a message indicating its origin with a link to the purchase order. However, the purchase order does not log any message stating that it has generated an invoice. This module allows developers to implement that functionality by providing a ready-to-use template.

⚠️ This module does not add functionality by itself. It is part of the server-ux repository and is intended for developers, who can implement the provided template as needed. The module includes an example code snippet to illustrate how to use it.

Use Cases / Context

This module has been created to obtain a reverse template of message_origin_link (which allows you to link the origin record in the chatter).

Usage

To use this module, make sure that the template you are going to write the message inherits from mail.thread.

You can call the template like this:

def custom_function(self):
    """Adds a chatter message to origin and destiny records"""
    for record in self:
        destiny_records = record._create_destiny_records()  # A bunch of Destiny Records
        mt_note_subtype_id = self.env['ir.model.data']._xmlid_to_res_id('mail.mt_note')

        # Add note to chatter that indicates destiny records
        record.message_post_with_view(
            'mail_message_destiny_link_template.message_destiny_link',
            values={'self': record, 'destiny': destiny_records, "edit": False or True},
            subtype_id=mt_note_subtype_id,
        )

        # Origin Link common usage to show differences
        for destiny_record in destiny_records:
            destiny_record.message_post_with_view(
                'mail.message_origin_link',
                values={'self': destiny_record, 'origin': record, "edit": False or True},
                subtype_id=mt_note_subtype_id,
            )
