Readonly publishing of calendars

Alpha License: AGPL-3 OCA/server-backend Translate me on Weblate Try me on Runboat

This module allows administrators to configure iCalendars based on an arbitrary selection on arbitrary models.

Users can selectively subscribe to them by enabling them in their profile form.

This is useful for exposing Odoo data to calendaring application like Nextcloud.

Important

This is an alpha version, the data model and design can change at any time without warning. Only for development or testing purpose, do not use in production. More details on development status

Configuration

To configure this module, you need to:

  1. Go to Settings/Technical/iCalendars
  2. Create a iCalendar, fill in the model you want to expose and possibly a domain to restrict records. You can use the user variable to restrict things relative to the user using the iCalendar
  3. A iCalendar is only available to the allowed users. Use the Allow automatically to make the iCalendar available to all users
  4. See the examples below for a start

Examples

Simple example, for model calendar.event, you'd fill in record.allday and record.start_date or record.start as DTSTART and record.allday and record.stop_date or record.stop as DTEND.

Advanced example, for model calendar.event, you'd use calendar = record._get_ics_file() in the code.

Advanced example, for model hr.leave, you can use the following code and [("employee_id.user_id", "=", user.id)] in the domain to export the own time offs. This is a bit more complex because of the way Odoo handles the begin and end times of leaves, and you'll want the extra day as most clients interpret the end date as non-inclusive.:

confirmed = ("validate", "validate1")
if record.request_unit_half or record.request_unit_hours:
   event = {
      "dtstart": event["dtstart"].date(),
      "dtend": event["dtend"].date() + timedelta(days=1),
   }
else:
  event = {
      "dtstart": record.date_from,
      "dtend": record.date_to,
   }

event["summary"] = record.name
event["status"] = "CONFIRMED" if record.state in confirmed else "TENTATIVE"

Advanced example, for model mail.activity, you can use the following code and [("user_id", "=", user.id)] and domain to export all user activities.

todo = {
   "summary": record.display_name,
   "due": record.date_deadline,
   "description": html2plaintext(record.note) if record.note else ""
}

Usage

To use this module, you need to:

  1. Go to your profile form
  2. Click Enable on one of the calendars listed in tab Calendars
  3. Copy the URL to the application you use
