Colorize field in tree views

Beta License: AGPL-3 OCA/web Translate me on Weblate Try me on Runbot

This module aims to add support for dynamically coloring fields in tree view according to data in the record.

It provides attributes on fields with the similar syntax as the colors attribute in tree tags.

Further, it provides a color_field attribute on tree tags’s colors to use a field’s value as color.

Features

Table of contents

Usage

options='{"fg_color": "red:red_color == True; green:green_color == True"}'

Example:

...
 <field name="arch" type="xml">
     <tree string="View name">
         ...
         <field name="name" options='{"fg_color": "red:red_color == True; green:green_color == True"}'/>
         ...
     </tree>
 </field>
 ...

 With this example, the content of the field named `my_color` will be used to
 populate the `my_color` CSS value. Use a function field to return whichever
 color you want depending on the other record values. Note that this
 overrides the rest of `colors` attributes, and that you need the tree
 to load your field in the first place by adding it as invisible field.

Note that you should always use single quotes for fields’ ``options`` and wrap nested values in double quotes since ``options`` is a JSON object.
