  • Re: Manage odoo automatic mails with recipients anti spam
    The first thing that I would do is look at the Message-Id and References headers in the response email to determine if you are suffering from an issue like

    """Issue: when using Amazon's SES SMTP service they rewrite the Message-Id of all
    outgoing messages. When someone replies, In-Reply-To contains the SES Message-Id
    which we don't know. Threading is therefore broken. Amazon requires to remember
    new Message-Id and handle it ourself, which is complicated [1]."""

    Dear OCA contributors,

    How do you manage automatic mailings from odoo when the recipient uses an anti-spam solution that requires the sender to be validated by a return mail that requires clicking on a link or filling a captcha ?
    I have a customer who uses the https://www.mailinblack.com/en solution.
    Mails returned by recipients who have mailinblack are not returned in Odoo in the original mail thread and are invisible in Odoo.

    What are the best practices in this case?

    Thanks a lot

  • Request for Review and Feedback on PR #3189: Enhancement to views_migration_17 Module

    Subject: Request for Review and Feedback on PR #3189: Enhancement to views_migration_17 Module

    Dear OCA Contributors,

    I hope this message finds you well. I am writing to kindly request your review and feedback on a recent pull request I have submitted to the server-tools repository: PR #3189.

    Pull Request Overview:

    • Title: [IMP] views_migration_17: support alternative output directory for transformed views instead of in-place write
    • Description: This improvement introduces the ability to specify an alternative output directory for transformed views in the views_migration_17 module, rather than performing in-place modifications. This enhancement aims to provide greater flexibility in managing transformed views for example when using doodba image from Tecnatica where addons path is readonly.

    Your insights and feedback are invaluable to ensure the quality and functionality of this enhancement. I would greatly appreciate it if you could take the time to review the proposed changes and share your thoughts or suggestions.

    Thank you for your attention and support.

    Best regards,

  • Re: Introducing pofiletranslate – A Tool for Translating PO Files

    Hi Tom,

    Thank you for sharing your approach!

    My tool is designed to be straightforward for anyone structuring their codebase in a workspace. You simply open the terminal in the i18n folder and run:

    pofiletranslate lang.po

    I've considered adding a caching system to avoid re-scanning PO files and integrating AI models (like transformer-based ones from Hugging Face) for the remaining untranslated terms. However, I found that this would complicate the tool while offering diminishing returns.

    Let me know if you have any thoughts!

    Best regards,
    Rachid

    Hi Rachid,

    I don't really have the time to take a look at what you made, but I've been using standard tools and some scripting to achieve the same, revolving around the following commands:

    1. Create "compendium" from existing translations:

    find ../../odoo -name nl.po | xargs msgcat --use-first | msgattrib --translated --no-fuzzy -o $HOME/odoo_nl.po

    2. Translate a module's PO file, making use of the compendium:

    msgmerge --no-fuzzy-matching --compendium $HOME/odoo_nl.po -o $dir/$module.new.po /dev/null $dir/$module.po

    It seems a similar method. I don't know if it can be of use to you

    On 3/12/25 12:37, Rachid Alassir wrote:

    Hi Antonio,

    By codebase, I mean the root directory of your workspace where your source code and existing translation files are located. The package searches for translations by analyzing the .po files in your project and reusing existing translations instead of relying on AI or Google Translate.

    By default, the tool starts from the directory of the provided .po file and backtracks up to 4 levels (configurable with --depth) to identify common translations within your project.

    Here’s an example to illustrate how it works:

    workspace17/  
├── hr/                # HR-related modules  
├── account/           # Accounting-related modules  
│   ├── my_module/     # Your custom module  
│   │   ├── i18n/      # Translation folder  
│   │   │   ├── fr.po  # French translation file (target file for translation)

    If you run:

    pofiletranslate account/my_module/i18n/fr.po

    The tool will search for translations in fr.po files up to 4 levels above in your workspace (workspace17/), ensuring better translation consistency across your project.

    Let me know if you need any further clarification!

    Rachid

  • Re: Tests failure when invoicing is involved after a change in Odoo upstream
    Well, that only fixes the problem in specific repositories OCA CIs, and you still needed to make some changes in tests. The problem we had was when using the modules in our own Ci, and the proposed patch was a good balance for not disturbing current OCA status and don't fail in our scenario.

  • Re: Tests failure when invoicing is involved after a change in Odoo upstream
    While fixing the 16.0 branch for l10n_belgium I have done some more research on this.

    In 16.0, something like `odoo -i l10n_be` gives you two companies with main company without CoA (that's the problem mentioned in OP)

    - Your Company (base.main_company), country=US, no CoA
    - BE Company, country=BE, BE CoA

    In 17.0 and 18.0, the generic CoA is loaded on main_company even though a localization was loaded:

    - Your Company (base.main_company), country=US, Generic CoA
    - BE Company, country=BE, BE CoA

    This is why we only see the problem in 16.

    So I now think pre-loading l10n_generic_coa before running the tests in 16.0 is an easy fix, and also a good solution (and the one I prefer), because it sets up the main company identically to what we get in later versions.

    IMO, tests that really depend on a CoA should use a company initialized with that CoA, and not base.main_company.

    This is what I did in l10n_belgium: https://github.com/OCA/l10n-belgium/pull/243

    Best regards,

    -Stéphane

    Stefan and Denis, the reason for the Odoo patch may be legit, and it is. The problem is that it comes too late for the lifecycle of this version IMO, and more having in version 17 integrated the generic CoA into account for better practices. Anyway, this is just undisclosing a problem that has been hidden in the design of our OCA tests, them not being deterministic and really unit tests, as they are relying on previous state of data for being successful:

    - The company used is the one populated by default instead of using a full set of data including the company. This may be reasonable for execution times, and that's why the decision to just fix this condition installing an existing CoA instead of populating on each test a new company.
    - There's no guarantee a CoA is loaded at the time of performing the tests, but creating an invoice requires it. That's why the post-install thing (and it's also a requirement if inheriting AccountTestInvoicingCommon).


    Inheriting from AccountTestInvoicingCommon, as explained in the commit message I linked in my first message, it's not improving the thing (at least in 16, in 17 it's more ironized), because it still requires `l10n_generic_coa` installed (and installed before the execution of this test), and its setup is very heavy, creating 2 companies (even if you only require one), so this would increase the test execution times a lot in the best case, or skipped without you really noticing in the worst (when generic CoA is not available).

    The added code is NOT boilerplate. It's legit code for making deterministic tests, the same as you may remove currency rates for having a deterministic environment. And it's totally harmless if you don't need it, because starting with, it's in test code, not in business code, and if you keep the previous status quo, the if it's not executed, so it doesn't affect any previous condition. This can only uncover other hidden defects on the modules being executed in post-install, and this is being patched at the same time.

    Replying to other threads answers, I don't think this will reverted, as AFAIK Odoo.sh is auto-installing the modules that hides the problem, and not installing any localization module, but I'm not expert of that platform, so I may be wrong.

    Regards.

    I don't really have the time to take a look at what you made, but I've been using standard tools and some scripting to achieve the same, revolving around the following commands:

    1. Create "compendium" from existing translations:

    find ../../odoo -name nl.po | xargs msgcat --use-first | msgattrib --translated --no-fuzzy -o $HOME/odoo_nl.po

    2. Translate a module's PO file, making use of the compendium:

    msgmerge --no-fuzzy-matching --compendium $HOME/odoo_nl.po -o $dir/$module.new.po /dev/null $dir/$module.po

    It seems a similar method. I don't know if it can be of use to you

    Hi Antonio,

    By codebase, I mean the root directory of your workspace where your source code and existing translation files are located. The package searches for translations by analyzing the .po files in your project and reusing existing translations instead of relying on AI or Google Translate.

    By default, the tool starts from the directory of the provided .po file and backtracks up to 4 levels (configurable with --depth) to identify common translations within your project.

    Here’s an example to illustrate how it works:

    workspace17/  
├── hr/                # HR-related modules  
├── account/           # Accounting-related modules  
│   ├── my_module/     # Your custom module  
│   │   ├── i18n/      # Translation folder  
│   │   │   ├── fr.po  # French translation file (target file for translation)

    If you run:

    pofiletranslate account/my_module/i18n/fr.po

    The tool will search for translations in fr.po files up to 4 levels above in your workspace (workspace17/), ensuring better translation consistency across your project.

    Let me know if you need any further clarification!

    Best regards,
    Rachid

    Hi Rachid,

    it is very interesting but what do you mean for Codebase?

    I cannot understand where package search for tranlsation.

    Thanks

    Dear Odoo Community,  

    I’ve developed a straightforward tool to translate PO files directly from a local codebase. I noticed that translations often follow a pattern within each project, and leveraging existing translations tends to produce better results than relying on Google Translate or AI-based tools.

    Hi Antonio,

    By codebase, I mean the root directory of your workspace where your source code and existing translation files are located. The package searches for translations by analyzing the .po files in your project and reusing existing translations instead of relying on AI or Google Translate.
