[ADD] import_odbc and base_external_dbsource from lp:openobject-extension/7.0

[Nicolas Bessi - Camptocamp (nbessi-c2c-deactivatedaccount)]

Hello,

Thanks for the revirew

Some comments below:

Please use explicit relative import: from . import

in __openerp__ remove the init key please it is unused

in base_external_source.py:

just a details but the order of import is not standard:
-atop should be standard lib call,
-below external used module,
-finally localy imported module

please use OpenERP/community convention to for the model:
from openerp.osv import orm, fields

class base_external_dbsource(orm.Model):

line 71: back slash is not needed
line 82 back slash an + is not needed

in conn_open
            if '%s' not in data.conn_string:
                connStr += ';PWD=%s'
I'm not sure this is a judicious choice.
What if password set in FREETDS config files

In function connexion_test you raise an exception to said that connection works.
It will be better to return an ir.act_windows.

A quick pass to a lynter to fix PEP8 will be nice.

In demo data used for yaml test

        <record model="base.external.dbsource" id="demo_postgre">
            <field name="name">PostgreSQL local</field>
            <field name="conn_string">dbname='postgres' password=%s</field>
            <field name="password">postgresql</field>
            <field name="connector">postgresql</field>
        </record>

Depends on postgres configuration. I have no better idea but a comment in test should be made to validate this first.

Thanks fro the patch. I will look if I can integrate it in connector_odbc.

Regards

Nicolas

Maxime: I can work on the cleanup of this code, if you like.

Use orm.execpt_orm instead

And at least split the l.43 in import_odbc/import_odbc

Cheers

+    'name': 'Import data from SQL and ODBC data sources.',
+    'version': '61.3',
+    'category': 'Tools',
+    'description': """
+Import data directly from other databases.
+
+Installed in the Administration module, menu Configuration -> Import from SQL.
+
+Features:
+ * Fetched data from the databases are used to build lines equivalent to regular import files. These are imported using the standard "import_data()" ORM method, benefiting from all its features, including xml_ids.
+ * Each table import is defined by an SQL statement, used to build the equivalent for an import file. Each column's name should match the column names you would use in an import file. The first column must provide an unique identifier for the record, and will be used to build its xml_id.
+ * SQL columns named "none" are ignored. This can be used for the first column of the SQL, so that it's used to build the XML Id but it's not imported to any OpenERP field.
+ * The last sync date is the last successfull execution can be used in the SQL using "%(sync)s", or ":sync" in the case of Oracle.
+ * When errors are found, only the record with the error fails import. The other correct records are commited. However, the "last sync date" will only be automaticaly updated when no errors are found.
+ * The import execution can be scheduled to run automatically.
+
+Examples:
+ * Importing suppliers to res.partner:
+      SELECT distinct
+            [SUPPLIER_CODE] as "ref"
+          , [SUPPLIER_NAME] as "name"
+          , 1 as "is_supplier"
+          , [INFO] as "comment"
+        FROM T_SUPPLIERS
+       WHERE INACTIVE_DATE IS NULL and DATE_CHANGED >= %(sync)s
+
+ * Importing products to product.product:
+      SELECT PRODUCT_CODE as "ref"
+           , PRODUCT_NAME as "name"
+           , 'res_partner_id_'+SUPPLIER_ID as "partner_id/id"
+        FROM T_PRODUCTS
+       WHERE DATE_CHANGED >= %(sync)s
+
+Improvements ideas waiting for a contributor:
+ * Allow to import many2one fields (currently not supported). Done by adding a second SQL sentence to get child record list?
+ * Allow "import sets" that can be executed at different time intervals using different scheduler jobs.
+ * Allow to inactivate/delete OpenERP records when not present in an SQL result set.
