Please share your thoughts on the use of `x_` prefix for custom fields in Odoo
Hello Odoo contributors,
I'd love to hear your opinion on whether or not one should consistently prefix custom fields and models with `x_`. While there are valid reasons to do so, this convention is either not general or often overlooked in the community. Please share your insights on ir ir when it is required and why it may be missing from some guidelines (e.g., https://www.odoo.com/documentation/17.0/contributing/development/coding_guidelines.html#). I'd really love discuss this topic to enhance our common understanding and best practices in the Odoo ecosystem. Thank you for sharing your opinions
Best regards,
Frederik
Hint: Daniel Reis for instance claims "The field name field entry must start with the
x_prefix. This is mandatory for models and fields created from the developer tools. Customizations made through addon modules don't have this limitation." in https://subscription.packtpub.com/book/business-and-other/9781800200067/2/ch02lvl1sec09/adding-a-custom-field-to-a-model and Odoo itself pretends "Custom model names must start withx_." in https://www.odoo.com/documentation/17.0/developer/reference/external_api.html but leaves the convention unaddressed in https://www.odoo.com/documentation/17.0/contributing/development/coding_guidelines.html#For whom it may concern: SAP is requiring similar prefixes since very early versions of its ABAP programming and costumization iterface https://help.sap.com/doc/saphelp_snc700_ehp01/7.0.1/en-US/c5/e4ade6453d11d189430000e829fbbd/content.htm?no_cache=true
