odoo-module-migrator

odoo-module-migrator is a python3 library that allows you to automatically migrate module code to make it compatible with newer Odoo version. for exemple:

• renaming __openerp__.py file into __manifest__.py
• removing # -*- encoding: utf-8 -*- since V11.0
• replacing openerp import by odoo import
• removing migrations folders
• changing <act_window> to <record model="ir.actions.window">
• ...

This library will so:

• (optionnaly) get commits from the old branch (if format-patch is enabled)
• apply automatically changes. (renaming, replacing, etc.)
• commit your changes.
• Display warnings or errors in log if your code belong obsolete code patterns.

This project is about migrating code. If you're looking for database data migration between Odoo versions, take a look at the https://github.com/OCA/OpenUpgrade project.

INFO log

It mentions that the lib automatically changed something. A priori you have nothing to do. For example, for a migration from 8.0 to a more recent version:

12:38:54 INFO Renaming file: '/my_module/__openerp__.py' by '/my_module/__manifest__.py'

WARNING log

It mentions that you should check something. There is maybe something to do to make the module working. For exemple:

19:37:55 WARNING Replaced dependency of 'account_analytic_analysis' by 'contract' (Moved to OCA/contract)

ERROR log

It mentions that you should change something in your code. It not, the module will not work for sure. (not installable, or generating error during the execution)

For example, if you have a 8.0 module that depends on 'account_anglo_saxon', that disappeared in more recent version, the following log will be displayed

12:38:54 ERROR Depends on removed module 'account_anglo_saxon'

Development and improvment

If you want to improve or complete this library, please read the DEVELOP.rst file and the 'Roadmap / Know issues' sections.

Installation

pip3 install odoo-module-migrator

Usage

Using Format Patch command

(Recommanded by the OCA)

If you want to migrate an Odoo module from a version 8.0 to 12.0, for exemple the module pos_order_pricelist_change in the OCA "pos" repository.

git clone https://github.com/OCA/pos -b 12.0
cd pos
odoo-module-migrate
    --directory             ./
    --modules               pos_order_pricelist_change
    --init-version-name     8.0
    --target-version-name  12.0
    --format-patch

Without format Patch command

(Mainly for your custom modules)

if you have created a new branch (for exemple 12.0) based on your 10.0 branch you can run the following command

odoo-module-migrate
    --directory             /path/to/repository
    --modules               module_1,module_2,module_3
    --init-version-name     10.0
    --target-version-name   12.0

This tools will operate the changes for each module.

--modules	-m	Default: All modules present in the directory	Module(s) to migrate. Note if format-patch option is enabled, you have to provide only one module.
--format-patch	-fp	disabled by default	Recover code, using git format-patch command.

--no-commit	-nc	Default: commit	If set the library will not git add and git commit changes.

Roadmap / Know issues

• replacement of tag <openerp><data> by <odoo> will fail in the case where there are many <data> occurency. We could fix that, using lxml lib instead of regular expression.
• Add a call to pre-commit run -a, if pre-commit is present in the repository.
