OdooJsonRpcClient

OdooJsonRpcClient is a C# library (.NET Standard) for communication with Odoo.

Installation

Use the package manager console, nuget package manager or check on NuGet.org

Install-Package PortaCapena.OdooJsonRpcClient

First steps

Start your work with check version of Odoo. To this request You need only a valid url address.

var config = new OdooConfig(
        apiUrl: "https://odoo-api-url.com", //  "http://localhost:8069"
        dbName: "odoo-db-name",
        userName: "admin",
        password: "admin"
        );

var odooClient = new OdooClient(config);
var versionResult = await odooClient.GetVersionAsync();

When U can connect to odoo, try use login method. (There is no need to use this method later. Logging is going on in the background e.g. OdooClient, OdooRepository)

var loginResult = await odooClient.LoginAsync();

If You have correct data to login, its time to get model that U intrested off.

var tableName = "product.product";
var modelResult = await odooClient.GetModelAsync(tableName);

var model = OdooModelMapper.GetDotNetModel(tableName, modelResult.Value);

Method GetModelAsync returns model with odoo specification. Method GetDotNetModel() from class OdooModelMapper returns string of class declaration that U can create and paste to Your project. Please don't use the models from the example project. Models are different depending on odoo version and added extensions.

[OdooTableName("product.product")]
[JsonConverter(typeof(OdooModelConverter))]
public class OdooProductProduct : IOdooModel
{
    [JsonProperty("id")]
    public long Id { get; set; }

    [JsonProperty("display_name")]
    public string DisplayName { get; set; }

    [JsonProperty("price")]
    public double? Price { get; set; }

    // product.template
    [JsonProperty("product_tmpl_id")]
    public int ProductTmplId { get; set; }
    
    [JsonProperty("activity_exception_decoration")]
    public ActivityExceptionDecorationOdooEnum? ActivityExceptionDecoration { get; set; }
    
    ...
}

[JsonConverter(typeof(StringEnumConverter))]
public enum ActivityExceptionDecorationOdooEnum
{
    [EnumMember(Value = "warning")]
    Alert = 1,

    [EnumMember(Value = "danger")]
    Error = 2,
}

OdooRepository

Read

var repository = new OdooRepository<ProductProductOdooModel>(config);
var products = await repository.Query().ToListAsync();

In Repository U can use OdooQueryBuilder to create queries.

  var products = await repository.Query()
                .Where(x => x.Name, OdooOperator.EqualsTo, "test product name")
                .Where(x => x.WriteDate, OdooOperator.GreaterThanOrEqualTo, new DateTime(2020, 12, 2))
                .Select(x => new
                {
                    x.Name,
                    x.Description,
                    x.WriteDate
                })
                .OrderByDescending(x => x.Id)
                .Take(10)
                .ToListAsync();

Create

var model = OdooDictionaryModel.Create(() => new ProductProductOdooModel()
{
    Name = "test product name"
});

var result = await repository.CreateAsync(model);

Update

U can update only this fields that U are intrested in. For updating many records use UpdateRangeAsync.

var model = OdooDictionaryModel.Create(() => new ProductProductOdooModel()
{
    Name = "test product name updated"
}); 
var result = await repository.UpdateAsync(model, productId);

Delete

var deleteProductResult = await repository.DeleteAsync(productId);

OdooClient

OdooRepository is a wrapper for OdooClient. This class give option for building more advanced requests or not implemented in this library.

IOdooCreateModel

If we create an object instance that we want to pass to odoo but do not fill all fields, they will be automatically assigned default values (Create and update methods). In this case is impossible to distinguish whether we want to set null value or not touch this property. The first solution for that is create models based on odoo model with only fields that we want to use. To that use IOdooCreateModel interface. To not create multiple models use OdooDictionaryModel.

[OdooTableName("product.product")]
public class OdooCreateProduct : IOdooCreateModel
{
    [JsonProperty("name")]
    public string Name { get; set; }
}

var model = new OdooCreateProduct()
{
     Name = "Prod test Kg",
};

var createResult = await repository.CreateAsync(model);

OdooDictionaryModel

This class is second solution for the problem of passing models with default or null values to odoo.

var model = OdooDictionaryModel.Create(() => new ProductProductOdooModel()
{
    Name = "test name",
    Description = "test description",
});

if(condition)
    model.Add(x => x.WriteDate, new DateTime());

var createResult = await odooRepository.CreateAsync(model);

or

 var model2 = new OdooDictionaryModel("res.partner") {
                { "name", "test name" },
                { "country_id", 20 },
                { "city", "test city" },
                { "zip", "12345" },
                { "street", "test address" },
                { "company_type", "company" },
            };
var odooClient = new OdooClient(TestConfig);

var createResult = await odooClient.CreateAsync(model2);

OdooContext

Context is mainly used to send to odoo values such as language or time zone, but U can use it for more advanced requests. U can set it in OdooConfig for multiple usage or only once adding it to request as parameter (also in repository query).

var context = new OdooContext("pl_PL");
context.Language = "nl_BE";

var id = await odooRepository.CreateAsync(model, context);

Advanced queries

To make Your queries faster use Select method and get only fields that U are interested of. If U reduced the amount of field in your models use SelectSimplifiedModel().

OdooFilter

For more advanced queries U can use OdooFilter or OdooFilterOfT. To use or try:

var filter = OdooFilter<ResCompanyOdooModel>.Create()
                .Or()
                .EqualTo(x => x.Name, "My Company (San Francisco)")
                .EqualTo(x => x.Name, "PL Company");    

var filter = OdooFilter.Create()
                .Or()
                .EqualTo("name", "My Company (San Francisco)")
                .EqualTo("name", "PL Company");

var products = await repository.Query()
               .Where(filter)
               .ToListAsync();

Deep where

Get ProductProductOdooModel where CountryCode is "BE" in ResCompanyOdooModel (CompanyId)

var repository = new OdooRepository<ProductProductOdooModel>(config);
var products = await repository.Query()
               .Where<ResCompanyOdooModel>(
                  x => x.CompanyId, 
                     y => y.CountryCode, OdooOperator.EqualsTo, "BE")
               .FirstOrDefaultAsync();

var products = await repository.Query()
               .Where<ResCompanyOdooModel, AccountTaxOdooModel>(
                  x => x.PropertyAccountExpenseId, 
                     y => y.AccountSaleTaxId, 
                        z => z.CountryCode, OdooOperator.EqualsTo, "BE")
               .FirstOrDefaultAsync();
