Thanx for info. What I wanted to achieve was to somehow upload batch of images 
into website so they could be used in HTML of blog posts we are migrating from 
old site. Or generally have the option in Media selection dialog in web editor 
to upload  a batch of images. However I found that this would be rather 
complicated because the URL of those images would be something like /web/
image/107007/image.png The number is generated so not much of a prediction 
where it'd go. 

I solved it in another way. I create a simple module that only contains 
static/src/img directory with all the images from original blog. That way it 
was easy to update the HTML content to point to these as the path would be 
fixed to /module_name/static/src/img/

Still I think it would be beneficial if it was possible to upload media in 
batch into website editor to be used later because now you have to upload them 
one by one.

S pozdravom

Hello Radovan,

If I got you right you are asking for a one-time import job for
migration, not for a front end based user friendly solution, right?

If that’s the case the best way to do it is using the python shell
interface for odoo and writing import scripts.

Usual way we do stuff like this is to dump data from the old system in
some structured way (access old DB, export to CSV/XML etc.) and read and
transform using python scripts.

Example for writing:
```
image_path = "/".join([self.image_base_path, path])
try:
    with Image.open(image_path) as image:
        buf = io.BytesIO()
        image.save(buf, format=image.format)
        b64_image = base64.b64encode(buf.getvalue())
        return b64_image, basename(image_path)
except FileNotFoundError as e:
    _logger.warning(
        f"Could not import image {image_path}",
        exc_info=_no_traceback(e))

```

Attached is a simple script for reading.
It just reads an image from a custom model. Doesn’t make sence for your
case, but you can use this as a minimal starting example for the script
and combine with the above code.

If you use Odoo with buildout simply call:
`bin/python_odoo <your_script.py> [your script arguments]`
to run it.


regards, Peter

Nobody has anything on this? I really hate repetitive tasks - in this case 
uploading images one by one. Isn't there a way for example to import 
attachments? I've seen something like base64 encoding the content of image and 
the provide it as content. But still needs to set Resource Model to ir.ui.view 
which seems to be read only? Am I missing somethin crucial here? Any advice is 
highly appreciated. Thank you.

Best regards
