Feature Request / Question of File Templates and Images

[renzo1974]

Hi

Images
It would be very nice to add images into generated package.
As example we have to add our company logo and a base product logo into every odoo module which is generated. And this is forgotten to many times...

File generation
Another problem that I have is to generate the __init__.py files based on selected folders.

An odoo Module has the following structure:

• /module
  • __init__.py
  • /models/__init__.py
  • /controllers/__init__.py
  • /wizards/__init__.py

Now when I do not need e.g. the wizards folder, I disable this folder in package template Popup.
But in root __init__.py I have to add (or remove) all (not) needed imports for sub packages.
Is there a possibility to automize the generation of __init__.py in root by selected folders?

Regards
Renzo

Hi, thx for feedback. I will try to develop some features for your request. P.S. What you mean by imports for sub packages, TextInjections?

[renzo1974]

I mean the root __init__.py file should look like:

import models
import controllers
import wizards

or when e.g. controllers folder is not used:

import models
import wizards

Something like a live template which can loop over subfolders...

Oh.. i miss this feature too and already have some ideas about possible solution. Currently you can use dummy variables + Velocity engine (Supported in FileTemplates by default) as temporary solution.
e.g. global var ADD_WIZZARD

then in FileTemplate check value of variable:

#if (${ADD_WIZZARD} && ${ADD_WIZZARD} != "")import wizards#end

If ADD_WIZZARD isn't empty import will be added, but approach with variables still independent from selecting folders, so you should manually control both conditions.

Oh nice to read that you already have some ideas...

The usage of variables is a solution but not not realy one that I will use... I don't like to set twice to not use a folder...

So I will wait for another solution of you ;-)))

Thanks a lot for this time saving plugin!
