Re: New module for uuid fields

Hi,

I’ve had the need to use an uuid column in the past. The column was not meant to be filled by users. The table was built manually and a Char field was used to display the content.

I believe the server-tools repository is the place to put a module adding UUID fields.

Regards,

  • New module for uuid fields

    Hello everyone,

     

    I am currently working on a project where I wanted to use the native postgres type uuid, instead of storing the uuids in plain char fields. Since such a field does not seem to be available in Odoo yet, I threw together a very simple module: https://github.com/mkoeck/base-uuid-field/

     

    Since I saw that there are some existing OCA modules using uuid’s (but storing them in plain char fields), I thought this module might also be interesting to others. I would be happy to integrate this into an existing OCA repo, if someone guides me what the best direction for this would be.

    Do note, that I am quite the novice with JS / owl, so any feedback, but especially on that is appreciated J

     

    Best regards,

    Michael
