[ADD] 8.0 - New module 'base_user_role' to manage user roles efficiently by sebalix · Pull Request #608 · OCA/server-tools

sebalix · 2016-11-15T13:40:18Z

Note : we are using this module on version 6.0, 7.0 and 8.0 I just added the support for dates recently on the 8.0 version. I'll migrate it to 9.0 and 10.0 soon.

Related issue: #146

User roles

This module was written to extend the standard functionality regarding users and groups management. It helps creating well-defined user roles and associating them to users.

It can become very hard to maintain a large number of user profiles over time, juggling with many technical groups. For this purpose, this module will help you to:

define functional roles by aggregating low-level groups,
set user accounts with the predefined roles (roles are cumulative),
update groups of all relevant user accounts (all at once),
ensure that user accounts will have the groups defined in their roles (nothing more, nothing less). In other words, you can not set groups manually on a user as long as there is roles configured on it,
activate/deactivate roles depending on the date (useful to plan holidays, etc)
get a quick overview of roles and the related user accounts.

That way you make clear the different responsabilities within a company, and are able to add and update user accounts in a scalable and reliable way.

Configuration

To configure this module, you need to go to Configuration / Users / Roles, and create a new role. From there, you can add groups to compose your role, and then associate users to it.

About Travis: flake8 errors and tests failure not related to this module.

jcdrubay · 2016-11-16T06:58:07Z

Very good contribution (high quality of code, useful, well documented).
I hope it can be reviewed and merged soon 👍

This is awesome, thanks @sebalix

You can remove this key. base dependency is implicit.

No, you should depend on your module at least in base, but base is implicit when depending on other module.

There shouldn't be need for this guard, mapped will just return an empty Recordset that should work with the other method just fine due to record loop

+    date_from = fields.Date(u"From")
+    date_to = fields.Date(u"To")
+    is_active = fields.Boolean(u"Active", compute='_compute_is_active')


active is the Odoo norm for this col - although I'm with you on prefixing bool cols with linking verbs like is, has, etc. It also comes with some defaults filters and such, so makes it worth using despite the hurt to naming OCD

That said, it also needs to be store=True to allow all of that

Indeed, but I was unable to set a working domain on the XML views to display all the lines (as we don't want to hide them from the administrator in any case, we just want to filter them when setting groups). If I set the domain on the Python field, it works fine, but then it does not dispense to filter the lines in the ResUsers.set_groups_from_roles method. And as I've seen no benefit to use the standard active field I ended up adding my own.

Or I could rename it to 'is_enabled'?

I like the is_enabled idea - it is far enough away from active that people won't be trying to change it all the time. I know I would have probably done this during a migration had I not already gotten the reasoning behind it.

Oh please also check Travis and Runbot 😉

From travis https://travis-ci.org/OCA/server-tools/jobs/176051212#L1703

The model res.users.role.line has no access rules, consider adding one. E.g.

Thank you for the review, I'll fix these points soon

Date from may be default the date now of the create moment.
Good contribution.
👍

Dates are optional, no dates = role activated immediately

sebalix · 2016-11-18T13:12:13Z

I think all the points are fixed.

lasley · 2016-11-18T17:42:33Z

Travis is still mad 🔴

sebalix · 2016-11-18T20:46:13Z

You mean I have to fix lint errors of others modules in this one? Tests fail on fetchmail_notify_error_to_sender.

lasley

Hmm yeah ok the build looks broken on 8.0 branch in the same way, so you are correct that we should not be fixing it here.

sebalix · 2016-11-19T18:21:02Z

I fixed the other modules in #616 to get green builds.

@adrienpeiffer you should have a look at this.

Tested functionality on runbot 👍

andhit-r · 2016-12-09T02:26:07Z

@mikevhe18 @azmimr67 you guys should take a look at this PR and help review

lasley · 2016-12-09T05:45:40Z

We're approved for merge. @sebalix - do you prefer to squash your own commits or would you rather me do it? I don't think I've gotten this preference from you yet, but sorry if I'm double asking.

sebalix · 2016-12-09T08:22:27Z

@lasley You can squash them, no trouble

lasley · 2016-12-09T17:07:03Z

Thanks for the awesome new module @sebalix! Do you have any plans to migrate it forward?
