Qweb XML Reports
================
This module was written to extend the functionality of the reporting engine to
support XML reports and allow modules to generate them by code or by QWeb
templates.
Installation
============
To install this module, you need to:
* Install lxml_ in Odoo's ``$PYTHONPATH``.
* Install the repository `reporting-engine`_.
But this module does nothing for the end user by itself, so if you have it
installed it's probably because there is another module that depends on it.
Configuration
=============
No manual configuration is needed.
Usage
=====
If you are a user
-----------------
You will be able to download XML reports from the *Print* menu found on form
and list views.
If you are a developer
----------------------
To learn from an example, just check the `sample module`_.
To develop with this module, you need to:
* Create a module.
* Make it depend on this one.
* Follow `instructions to create reports`_ having in mind that the
``report_type`` field in your ``ir.actions.report.xml`` record must be
``qweb-xml``.
In case you want to create a `custom report`_, the instructions remain the same
as for HTML reports, and the method that you must override is also called
``render_html``, even when this time you are creating a XML report.
You can make your custom report inherit ``report_xml.xsd_checked_report``, name
it like your XML ``<template>`` id prepended by ``report.``, add a ``xsd()``
method that returns a XSD in a string, and have XSD automatic checking for
free.
You can visit ``http://<server-address>/report/xml/<module.report_name>/<ids>``
to see your XML report online as a web page.
