Re: Editing/Viewing attachments (mainly Word and Excel) directly on server without the need to download locally
Looking for alternatives I found these 2 articles that summarize exactly what I would need:
https://mikekaganski.wordpress.com/2016/10/29/first-blog-post/
https://mikekaganski.wordpress.com/2016/11/20/integrating-libreoffice-with-sharepoint-part-2/
So the alternatives (protocol - wise) that I can see are (talking about editing in desktop version of LibreOffice / MS Office):
- WebDAV
- CMIS
I have been looking for WebDAV already and mentioned it in initial email. Looking for CMIS I found this: https://github.com/OCA/connector-cmis
However that is for integration with external CMIS server such as Alfresco. So I would need to implement CMIS server as Odoo module to achieve what I want. Will research that.
Best regards

Editing/Viewing attachments (mainly Word and Excel) directly on server without the need to download locally
Hello,
I am investigating a possibility of allowing somehow editing and viewing of attachments without the need to download and reupload them locally. I would like for Odoo to replace any local storage and save users from need to download/upload the files. DMS module comes to mind as a good base for orgnaizing that. I can see multiple building blocks for this but I am interested if anyone has taken this idea any further. Some of the possible building blocks could be:
- WebDav support - like https://github.com/OCA/server-backend/pull/61
- integration with Google Docs / Microsoft Web Suite / LibreOffice Online
- CMIS
- SharePoint or SharePoint like services
- possibly LibreOffice ActiveX control to stay in browser (there's similar thing for Microsoft)
I was able to access demo of Odoo 14.0 Enterprise with new possibility to create "live" spreadsheets. Don't know how that is done (is it 14.0's module google_spreadsheets?) but that won't allow for opening your own Excel nor Word files :-(
Has anyone attempted anything like this succesfully? Can you give any pointers please? Thank you
Best regards
