Modules for read only User Groups 

Hello!

I remember seeing some modules, or at least some discussion, to provide 
User Groups with read only access.
But I'm not able to find anything.

Does anyone remember this or knows how to point me in the right direction?

Thanks

    If you want a user with readonly for all models, you can create a group "readonly" and inherit the "ir_model_access.check" method to check if the user has this group so the permission is just read.

    Something like this:

    You can use the current groups way to enable menus and models permissions, but if you assign the new readonly group so, this user only will can read (not write, create, unlink) even if the original groups allow.

    I hope this can be helpful for you.
    Feel free to contribute it to OCA if you think that it is helpful

    Disclaimer1: It is only a POC without a depth analysis.
    Disclaimer2: Readonly group apply for all models. Maybe, it could be configurable making a few changes.

    For me the good OCA module is one that allows this as a general switch, not having to create an specific module for each area (and leaving out possible specific modules). I think this can be done at ORM level overriding write/create or even lower layers, or _check_access.

    Regards.

    I wonder if it could make sense to have this under the OCA.

    Yes, why not !
     
    Maybe that discussion already happened in the past.

    No, it hasn't been discussed in the past. I feel that these modules never received any attention from the community (or maybe some people use it, but I never got any feedback because it "just works"). But I find them very useful.

    I confirm that I continue to maintain my viewer-groups modules in this Akretion project : https://github.com/akretion/odoo-viewer-groups
    It is only available on v8, v10 and v12, according to Akretion's policy to work on even versions of Odoo.
    I use those modules on almost all my deployments ; I find it very useful. I'll certainly port these module to Odoo v14.

    AFAIK, nothing has reached OCA repositories yet about that.
