How to call the existing fields of a record using a Wizard?

How to take the existing values in the content of the fields of a record when implementing a Wizard?

Previously we received help to save the records. Our query now, is a little different.

PURPOSE:

To develop a Wizard that allows to use the existing current values in the fields of a record.

THE EXPECTED

It is expected that the wizard will be able to call the values of the fields of a record and manage to update them.

DIFFICULTY:

We have our ‘incidents’ model with records that we want to update.
It has been tried with two methods: Pool(), Transaction().
(Please see the example codes)

  • With the Pool method, we are not able to take the values of incident.observations
  • With the Transaction().context.get( ‘observations’) method we are not successful either.

Both methods generate error.

ENVIRONMENT:

  • OS: Ubuntu 20.04.1 LTS
  • Python: 3.8.5
  • Trytond: 5.8.1
  • Tryton: 5.8.1
  • Module: 5.8
  • Postgresql: 12.5

EXAMPLE CODE:

start_state = 'parameters'
   parameters = StateView(
       'incidents.solve_incidents.parameters',
       'incidents.solve_incidents_parameters_view_form', [
           Button('Cancelar', 'end', 'tryton-cancel'),
           Button('Resolver', 'solve', 'solve', default=True)
       ])
   solve = StateTransition()
   open_incidents = StateAction('incidents.act_state_resolved_list')

Option with the Pool() method

def default_parameters(self, name):
       pool = Pool()
       Incident = pool.get('incidents')
       incidents = Incident.browse(Transaction().context['active_ids'])
       for incident in incidents:
           self.parameters.observations = incident.observations

Option with the Transaction() method

def default_parameters(self, name):
       self.parameters.observations = Transaction().context.get(
           'observations')
 

The rest of the code stores the record. It works well.

 
   def transition_block(self):
       pool = Pool()
       Incident = pool.get('incidents')
       incidents = Incident.browse(Transaction().context['active_ids'])
       for incident in incidents:
           incident.observations = self.parameters.observations
           incident.sub_state = self.parameters.sub_state
       Incident.save(incidents)
       return 'end'

We thank you for your guidance in implementing it in the right way.

happy holidays!
:snowman:

See example here : http://hg.tryton.org/modules/purchase_request_quotation/file/tip/purchase.py#l459

You should use self.records instead of Incident.browse(…)

Thank you Maxime !

The link guided us to implement your help.

Best regards.
