Web Controllers

Controllers

Controllers need to provide extensibility, much like Model, but can’t use the same mechanism as the pre-requisites (a database with loaded modules) may not be available yet (e.g. no database created, or no database selected).

Controllers thus provide their own extension mechanism, separate from that of models:

Controllers are created by inheriting from Controller. Routes are defined through methods decorated with route():

class MyController(odoo.http.Controller):
    @route('/some_url', auth='public')
    def handler(self):
        return stuff()

To override a controller, inherit from its class and override relevant methods, re-exposing them if necessary:

class Extension(MyController):
    @route()
    def handler(self):
        do_before()
        return super(Extension, self).handler()

  • decorating with route() is necessary to keep the method (and route) visible: if the method is redefined without decorating, it will be “unpublished”

  • the decorators of all methods are combined, if the overriding method’s decorator has no argument all previous ones will be kept, any provided argument will override previously defined ones e.g.:

    class Restrict(MyController):
    @route(auth='user')
    def handler(self):
        return super(Restrict, self).handler()

    will change /some_url from public authentication to user (requiring a log-in)

API

Routing

@odoo.http.route(route=None, **routing)[源代码]

Decorate a controller method in order to route incoming requests matching the given URL and options to the decorated method.

警告

It is mandatory to re-decorate any method that is overridden in controller extensions but the arguments can be omitted. See Controller for more details.

参数

  • route (Union[str, Iterable[str]]) – The paths that the decorated method is serving. Incoming HTTP request paths matching this route will be routed to this decorated method. See werkzeug routing documentation for the format of route expressions.

  • type (str) – The type of request, either 'json' or 'http'. It describes where to find the request parameters and how to serialize the response.

  • auth (str) –

    The authentication method, one of the following:

    • 'user': The user must be authenticated and the current request will be executed using the rights of the user.

    • 'bearer': The user is authenticated using an “Authorization” request header, using the Bearer scheme with an API token. The request will be executed with the permissions of the corresponding user. If the header is missing, the request must belong to an authentication session, as for the “user” authentication method.

    • 'public': The user may or may not be authenticated. If he isn’t, the current request will be executed using the shared Public user.

    • 'none': The method is always active, even if there is no database. Mainly used by the framework and authentication modules. The request code will not have any facilities to access the current user.

  • methods (Iterable[str]) – A list of http methods (verbs) this route applies to. If not specified, all methods are allowed.

  • cors (str) – The Access-Control-Allow-Origin cors directive value.

  • csrf (bool) – Whether CSRF protection should be enabled for the route. Enabled by default for 'http'-type requests, disabled by default for 'json'-type requests.

  • readonly (Union[bool, Callable[[registry, request], bool]]) – Whether this endpoint should open a cursor on a read-only replica instead of (by default) the primary read/write database.

  • handle_params_access_error (Callable[[Exception], Response]) – Implement a custom behavior if an error occurred when retrieving the record from the URL parameters (access error or missing error).

Request

The request object is automatically set on odoo.http.request at the start of the request.

class odoo.http.Request(httprequest)[源代码]

Wrapper around the incoming HTTP request with deserialized request parameters, session utilities and request dispatching logic.

update_env(user=None, context=None, su=None)[源代码]

  • su (bool) – optional boolean to change the superuser mode

update_context(**overrides)[源代码]

Override the environment context of the current request with the values of overrides. To replace the entire context, please use update_env() instead.

csrf_token(time_limit=None)[源代码]

Generates and returns a CSRF token for the current session

参数

time_limit (Optional[int]) – the CSRF token should only be valid for the specified duration (in second), by default 48h, None for the token to be valid as long as the current user’s session is.

make_response(data, headers=None, cookies=None, status=200)[源代码]

Helper for non-HTML responses, or HTML responses with custom response headers or cookies.

While handlers can just return the HTML markup of a page they want to send as a string if non-HTML data is returned they need to create a complete response object, or the returned data will not be correctly interpreted by the clients.

参数

  • data (str) – response body

  • status (int) – http status code

  • headers ([(name, value)]) – HTTP headers to set on the response

  • cookies (collections.abc.Mapping) – cookies to set on the client

返回

a response object.

返回类型

Response

make_json_response(data, headers=None, cookies=None, status=200)[源代码]

Helper for JSON responses, it json-serializes data and sets the Content-Type header accordingly if none is provided.

参数

  • data – the data that will be json-serialized into the response body

  • status (int) – http status code

  • headers (List[(str, str)]) – HTTP headers to set on the response

  • cookies (collections.abc.Mapping) – cookies to set on the client

返回类型

Response

not_found(description=None)[源代码]

Shortcut for a HTTP 404 (Not Found) response

render(template, qcontext=None, lazy=True, **kw)[源代码]

Lazy render of a QWeb template.

The actual rendering of the given template will occur at then end of the dispatching. Meanwhile, the template and/or qcontext can be altered or even replaced by a static response.

参数

  • template (str) – template to render

  • qcontext (dict) – Rendering context to use

  • lazy (bool) – whether the template rendering should be deferred until the last possible moment

  • kw (dict) – forwarded to werkzeug’s Response object

reroute(path, query_string=None)[源代码]

Rewrite the current request URL using the new path and query string. This act as a light redirection, it does not return a 3xx responses to the browser but still change the current URL.

class odoo.http.JsonRPCDispatcher(request)[源代码]
classmethod is_compatible_with(request)[源代码]

Determine if the current request is compatible with this dispatcher.

dispatch(endpoint, args)[源代码]

JSON-RPC 2 over HTTP.

Our implementation differs from the specification on two points:

  1. The method member of the JSON-RPC request payload is ignored as the HTTP path is already used to route the request to the controller.

  2. We only support parameter structures by-name, i.e. the params member of the JSON-RPC request payload MUST be a JSON Object and not a JSON Array.

In addition, it is possible to pass a context that replaces the session context via a special context argument that is removed prior to calling the endpoint.

Successful request:

--> {"jsonrpc": "2.0", "method": "call", "params": {"arg1": "val1" }, "id": null}

<-- {"jsonrpc": "2.0", "result": { "res1": "val1" }, "id": null}

Request producing a error:

--> {"jsonrpc": "2.0", "method": "call", "params": {"arg1": "val1" }, "id": null}

<-- {"jsonrpc": "2.0", "error": {"code": 1, "message": "End user error message.", "data": {"code": "codestring", "debug": "traceback" } }, "id": null}
handle_error(exc: Exception) → collections.abc.Callable[源代码]

Handle any exception that occurred while dispatching a request to a type='json' route. Also handle exceptions that occurred when no route matched the request path, that no fallback page could be delivered and that the request Content-Type was json.

参数

exc – the exception that occurred.

返回

a WSGI application

class odoo.http.HttpDispatcher(request)[源代码]
classmethod is_compatible_with(request)[源代码]

Determine if the current request is compatible with this dispatcher.

dispatch(endpoint, args)[源代码]

Perform http-related actions such as deserializing the request body and query-string and checking cors/csrf while dispatching a request to a type='http' route.

See load() method for the compatible endpoint return types.

handle_error(exc: Exception) → collections.abc.Callable[源代码]

Handle any exception that occurred while dispatching a request to a type='http' route. Also handle exceptions that occurred when no route matched the request path, when no fallback page could be delivered and that the request Content-Type was not json.

参数

exc (Exception) – the exception that occurred.

Response

class odoo.http.Response(*args, **kw)[源代码]

Outgoing HTTP response with body, status, headers and qweb support. In addition to the werkzeug.wrappers.Response parameters, this class’s constructor can take the following additional parameters for QWeb Lazy Rendering.

参数

  • template (str) – template to render

  • qcontext (dict) – Rendering context to use

  • uid (int) – User id to use for the ir.ui.view render call, None to use the request’s user (the default)

these attributes are available as parameters on the Response object and can be altered at any time before rendering

Also exposes all the attributes and methods of werkzeug.wrappers.Response.

classmethod load(result, fname='<function>')[源代码]

Convert the return value of an endpoint into a Response.

参数

  • result (Union[Response, werkzeug.wrappers.BaseResponse, werkzeug.exceptions.HTTPException, str, bytes, NoneType]) – The endpoint return value to load the Response from.

  • fname (str) – The endpoint function name wherefrom the result emanated, used for logging.

返回

The created Response.

返回类型

Response

引发

TypeError – When result type is none of the above- mentioned type.

render()[源代码]

Renders the Response’s template, returns the result.

flatten()[源代码]

Forces the rendering of the response’s template, sets the result as response body and unsets template

The default expires in Werkzeug is None, which means a session cookie. We want to continue to support the session cookie, but not by default. Now the default is arbitrary 1 year. So if you want a cookie of session, you have to explicitly pass expires=None.
