Base module to add video on records

auto_awesome What this module does

AI-generated from the code · Odoo 14.0

Lets you store videos (with provider, identifier, URL and thumbnail) in Odoo and link them to any record that uses the video mixin. A Video menu is added under the Custom menu.

This module adds a small video library inside Odoo. Under the Custom menu you get a new Video menu with two screens: Video Provider and Video.

  • In Video Provider you define a source such as YouTube, with a code and two URL patterns: one for the video link and one for the thumbnail. A YouTube provider is pre-loaded.
  • In Video you create video entries: a name, a provider, and the provider's video identifier. The full video URL and thumbnail URL are calculated automatically from the provider's patterns, so you do not type them by hand.
  • Videos can be shown as a list, a form, or a kanban gallery with thumbnails and an Open button that launches the video in a new tab. You can search by name and group videos by provider.

A reusable mixin named video.link.mixin provides a Video field (many-to-many to video.video), so other modules can attach videos to their own records. Regular users can only read videos and providers; only administrators (system group) can create, edit or delete them.
