Read Only ByPass
================

This module provides a solution to the problem of the interaction between
'readonly' attribute and 'on_change' attribute when used together. It allows
saving onchange modifications to readonly fields.

Behavior: add readonly fields changed by `on_change` methods to the values
passed to write or create. If `readonly_by_pass` is in the context and
True then by pass readonly fields and save its change.

Installation
============

There are no specific installation instructions for this module.

Configuration
=============

There is nothing to configure.

Usage
=====

This module changes the behaviour of Odoo by propagating
on_change modifications to readonly fields to the backend create and write
methods.

To change that behavior you have to set context on ``ur.actions.act_window``::

    <record id="sale.action_quotations" model="ir.actions.act_window">
        <field name="context">{'readonly_by_pass': True}</field>
    </record>

or by telling fields allow to change::

    <record id="sale.action_quotations" model="ir.actions.act_window">
        <field name="context">
            {'readonly_by_pass': ['readonly_field_1', 'readonly_field_2',]}
        </field>
    </record>

Known issues / Roadmap
======================

 * At this point, bypass on a field on o2m field (like field on sale order line)
   are not working, because context from action is not take on consideration
   when loosing focus on the line in the ``BufferedDataSet`` js Class.
