Support OCA components
Just discovered this stuff through the talk Patterns and antipatterns in Odoo module development in Odoo Experience 2022 and the article https://dev.to/guewen/introduction-to-odoo-components-bn0.
My only regret is that "Introduction to Odoo Components" article is not detailed enough. I would love to read more and have more info and examples. Also it leaves you hanging after talking about Connectors but not giving any insight.
Hi @jcfernandez-890825
That talk was the first time I heard about the Odoo Components. Regarding the article, I think it would be better if the author first gives a specific problem and solves it using two different ways: (1) using AbstractModel (2) using Component. Finally, compare the code of the two ways and point out the better points of using Component.
Should you, me or anyone else find related info worth mentioning, he/she should leave the link here. I think this approach would improve our code by removing methods and stuff to avoid bloated models. A lot of functionality in Odoo should be implemented by composition rather than inheritance, this approach gives us tools to do so IMHO.
