Project description

Beta License: AGPL-3 OCA/reporting-engine Translate me on Weblate Try me on Runboat

This module provides a basic report class to generate csv report.

Table of contents

Configuration

In case the exported CSV report should be encoded in another system than UTF-8, following fields of the report record (Settings > Technical > Reports) should be populated accordingly.

  • Encoding: set an encoding system (such as cp932)

  • Encode Error Handling: select ‘Ignore’ or ‘Replace’ as necessary.

    • ‘Ignore’: in case of an encoding error, the problematic character will be removed from the exported file.

    • ‘Replace’: in case of an encoding error, the problematic character will be replaced with ‘?’ symbol.

    • Leaving the field blank: in case of an encoding error, the report generation fails with an error message.

Usage

An example of CSV report for partners on a module called module_name:

A python class

from odoo import models

class PartnerCSV(models.AbstractModel):
    _name = 'report.report_csv.partner_csv'
    _inherit = 'report.report_csv.abstract'

    def generate_csv_report(self, writer, data, partners):
        writer.writeheader()
        for obj in partners:
            writer.writerow({
                'name': obj.name,
                'email': obj.email,
            })

    def csv_report_options(self):
        res = super().csv_report_options()
        res['fieldnames'].append('name')
        res['fieldnames'].append('email')
        res['delimiter'] = ';'
        res['quoting'] = csv.QUOTE_ALL
        return res

A report XML record

<report
    id="partner_csv"
    model="res.partner"
    string="Print to CSV"
    report_type="csv"
    name="module_name.report_name"
    file="res_partner"
    attachment_use="False"
/>

Update encoding with an appropriate value (e.g. cp932) as necessary.
