OdooRPC

OdooRPC is a Python module providing an easy way to pilot your Odoo servers through RPC.

Features supported:

• access to all data model methods (even browse) with an API similar to the server-side API,
• use named parameters with model methods,
• user context automatically sent providing support for internationalization,
• browse records,
• execute workflows,
• manage databases,
• reports downloading,
• JSON-RPC protocol (SSL supported),

How does it work? See below:

import odoorpc

# Prepare the connection to the server
odoo = odoorpc.ODOO('localhost', port=8069)

# Check available databases
print(odoo.db.list())

# Login
odoo.login('db_name', 'user', 'passwd')

# Current user
user = odoo.env.user
print(user.name)            # name of the user connected
print(user.company_id.name) # the name of its company

# Simple 'raw' query
user_data = odoo.execute('res.users', 'read', [user.id])
print(user_data)

# Use all methods of a model
Order = odoo.env['sale.order']
order_ids = Order.search([])
for order in Order.browse(order_ids):
    print(order.name)
    products = [line.product_id.name for line in order.order_line]
    print(products)

# Update data through a record
user.name = "Brian Jones"

See the documentation for more details and features.
