ERPpeek 0.11

Overview

ERPpeek carries three completing uses:

1. with command line arguments

2. as an interactive shell

3. as a client library

Key features:

• single executable erppeek.py, no external dependency

• wrappers for search+read, for data model introspection, etc…

• simpler syntax for domain and fields

• full API accessible on the Client object for OpenERP 5.0 through 6.1

• the module can be imported and used as a library: from erppeek import Client

• supports Python 3 and Python 2 (>= 2.5)

1. Command line arguments

See the introduction on this page or:

erppeek --help

2. Interactive use

Edit erppeek.ini and declare the environment(s):

[DEFAULT]
host = localhost
port = 8069
database = openerp
username = admin

[demo]
username = demo
password = demo

Connect to the OpenERP server:

erppeek --list
erppeek --env demo

This is a sample session:

demo >>> model('res.users')
<Model 'res.users'>
demo >>> client.ResUsers is model('res.users')
True
demo >>> client.ResUsers.count()
4
demo >>> read('ir.cron', ['active = False'], 'active function')
[{'active': False, 'function': 'run_mail_scheduler', 'id': 1},
 {'active': False, 'function': 'run_bdr_scheduler', 'id': 2},
 {'active': False, 'function': 'scheduled_fetch_new_scans', 'id': 9}]
demo >>>
demo >>> client.modules('delivery')
{'uninstalled': ['delivery', 'sale_delivery_report']}
demo >>> client.upgrade('base')
