unergy-odoo 0.5.0

Lightweight Odoo XML-RPC client with buit-in payroll novedades support

unergy-odoo

Lightweight Odoo XML-RPC client for Python. No Django required.

Installation

# From PyPI
pip install unergy-odoo

# With uv
uv add unergy-odoo

Configuration

Credentials are resolved from environment variables by default:

export ODOO_HOST="https://your-instance.odoo.com"
export ODOO_DB="your-database"
export ODOO_USERNAME="[e-mail]"
export ODOO_PASSWORD="your-api-key"

Multicompany support

Use OdooCredentials to bundle credentials for a specific company and pass them to any class. The library does not care where the values come from.

from unergy_odoo import Odoo, OdooCredentials

creds_a = OdooCredentials(
    host="https://company-a.odoo.com",
    db="company_a",
    username="[e-mail]",
    password="secret",
)
creds_b = OdooCredentials(
    host="https://company-b.odoo.com",
    db="company_b",
    username="[e-mail]",
    password="secret",
)

partners_a = Odoo("res.partner", credentials=creds_a)
partners_b = Odoo("res.partner", credentials=creds_b)

Credential resolution order for all classes:

1. credentials argument (OdooCredentials instance)
2. Individual keyword arguments (host, db, username, password)
3. Environment variables

Usage

Odoo — model client

from unergy_odoo import Odoo

# Query records
payslips = Odoo("hr.payslip").filter(
    fields=["name", "state", "employee_id"],
    filter=[["state", "=", "done"]],
    limit=50,
)

# Get a single record (raises Odoo.DoesNotExist if not found)
employee = Odoo("hr.employee").get(filter=[["identification_id", "=", "1234567890"]])

# Count
total = Odoo("hr.contract").count(filter=[["state", "=", "open"]])

# Create / update / delete
record_id = Odoo("res.partner").create({"name": "Acme", "email": "[e-mail]"})
Odoo("res.partner").update([record_id], {"phone": "[phone]"})
Odoo("res.partner").delete([record_id])

OdooExplorer — read-only introspection

Useful for discovering models, fields, and relations without risking writes.

from unergy_odoo import OdooExplorer

explorer = OdooExplorer()

# Find models by keyword
explorer.search_models("payslip")
explorer.search_models("nomina")

# Inspect fields
explorer.model_fields("hr.payslip")
explorer.model_fields("hr.payslip", field_type="selection")

# Inspect relational fields only
explorer.model_relations("hr.payslip")

# Count records (with optional domain)
explorer.count_records("hr.payslip")
explorer.count_records("hr.contract", [["state", "=", "open"]])

# Fetch sample records
explorer.sample("hr.payslip", limit=2)
explorer.sample("hr.payslip", fields=["name", "state", "employee_id"])

OdooManager — base connection

Use directly when you need raw execute_kw access.

from unergy_odoo import OdooManager

mgr = OdooManager()
uid = mgr.authenticate()
result = mgr._exec(mgr.db, uid, mgr.password, "hr.payslip", "search_count", [[]])

Novedades (payroll attachments)

High-level dataclasses for registering hr.salary.attachment records in Odoo.

TypePayment

Constants and helpers for payment period logic.

from unergy_odoo import TypePayment
from datetime import date

# Constants
TypePayment.MONTHLY          # "monthly"
TypePayment.FIRST_HALF       # "first_half"
TypePayment.SECOND_HALF      # "second_half"
TypePayment.BOTH_FORTNIGHT   # "both_fortnight"

# Determine the payment half from a date
tp = TypePayment.determine_type(date(2026, 4, 10))   # "second_half"
tp = TypePayment.determine_type(date(2026, 4, 1))    # "first_half"

# Get the actual payment date for a period
pd = TypePayment.determine_date(date(2026, 4, 10), TypePayment.SECOND_HALF)  # date(2026, 4, 30)
pd = TypePayment.determine_date(date(2026, 4, 1),  TypePayment.FIRST_HALF)   # date(2026, 4, 15)

Value	Quincena
TypePayment.MONTHLY	Mensual
TypePayment.FIRST_HALF	Primera quincena
TypePayment.SECOND_HALF	Segunda quincena
TypePayment.BOTH_FORTNIGHT	Ambas quincenas

Auto-closing previous novedades

By default, register() closes all active (state='open') novedades for the same employee and deduction_type before creating the new one, preventing double payments.

To disable this behaviour, pass complete_previous=False:

bono = BonoGimnasio(
    ...,
    complete_previous=False,
)
odoo_id = bono.register()

BonoGimnasio

from datetime import date
from unergy_odoo import BonoGimnasio, TypePayment

date_start = date(2026, 4, 1)
bono = BonoGimnasio(
    identification="1234567890",
    description="GIMNASIO JOHN DOE 2026-04-15 #10",
    monthly_amount=80_000,
    date_start=date_start,
    type_payment=TypePayment.determine_type(date_start),
)
odoo_id = bono.register()

Viatico

from datetime import date
from unergy_odoo import Viatico, TypePayment

viatico = Viatico(
    identification="1234567890",
    description="Viático viaje Bogotá",
    monthly_amount=150_000,
    date_start=date(2026, 4, 1),
    type_payment=TypePayment.FIRST_HALF,
    attachments=["soporte.pdf"],        # str, Path, or file-like object
)
odoo_id = viatico.register()

# Fixed total amount (single payment)
viatico = Viatico(
    identification="1234567890",
    description="Viático viaje Medellín",
    monthly_amount=0,
    date_start=date(2026, 4, 1),
    type_payment=TypePayment.MONTHLY,
    total_amount=300_000,
    has_total_amount=True,
    date_end=date(2026, 4, 30),
)

Deuda

from datetime import date
from unergy_odoo import Deuda, TypePayment

deuda = Deuda(
    identification="1234567890",
    description="Comidas 2026-04-01/2026-04-15 — D:3 A:5 C:0",
    monthly_amount=45_000,
    date_start=date(2026, 4, 1),
    type_payment=TypePayment.FIRST_HALF,
    date_end=date(2026, 4, 15),         # optional
)
odoo_id = deuda.register()

Credential overrides per novedad

Pass an OdooCredentials instance to target a specific company:

from unergy_odoo import BonoGimnasio, OdooCredentials

creds = OdooCredentials(host="https://staging.odoo.com", db="staging-db",
                        username="[e-mail]", password="staging-key")

bono = BonoGimnasio(..., odoo_credentials=creds)

Adding new novedad types

Subclass NovedadBase, set DEDUCTION_TYPE, and override _payload() for any extra fields:

from dataclasses import dataclass, field
from unergy_odoo import NovedadBase

@dataclass
class AuxilioTransporte(NovedadBase):
    DEDUCTION_TYPE: str = field(init=False, default="AUX_TRANSPORTE")

    def _payload(self) -> dict:
        return {}
