AI-generated from the code · Odoo 17.0

Adds a Bookstore area to Odoo where books are managed as products, with extra book details (author, editorial, genre, edition year) and separate lists for authors, editorials and genres.

This module turns Odoo products into books. On the product form you get a new "Is a book" checkbox; when it is ticked, an extra "Book Information" tab appears where you can fill in the Author, Editorial, Genre and Edition Year of the book.

A new "Bookstore" menu is added, containing: - Books: a list of products filtered to show only items marked as books. - Authors, Editorials and Genres: simple lists where you can record and maintain these reference values (each one is just a name).

The product search view is also extended: you can filter products by the "Books" filter, search by author, editorial, genre or edition year, and group products by any of those fields.

Access is controlled by two new groups, User and Manager, under a "Bookstore Management" category. Users can only read authors, editorials and genres; Managers can create, edit and delete them. The module depends on the standard Products app and does not add any automatic computation, validation or scheduled action.
