Add import source capable of loading files from SFTP.

Source type provided at the moment: CSV.

Special feature: move files to another path when the import is finished.

You can configure input, error, success path.

Files are searched into input folder and if the flag move_file_after_import is enabled, the file will be moved to error or success path depending on the result of the import process.

AI-generated from the code · Odoo 18.0

Adds a new CSV import source that reads files from an SFTP server, and can automatically move each processed file to a success or error folder depending on the import result.

This module adds a new import source type called "CSV SFTP" that you can select when configuring an import in the Connector Importer. Instead of uploading a file manually, Odoo connects to an SFTP storage backend and picks up the first file whose name matches a pattern you define.

On the import source form you fill in: - the SFTP storage backend to use; - the input folder where files are looked for; - a filename pattern (a regular expression, by default any .csv file); - optionally, an error folder and a success folder.

If "Move file after import" is enabled, once the import finishes the file is moved to the success folder when records were created, updated or skipped, or to the error folder when at least one line failed. The move happens only after the database transaction is committed. If "Send back error report" is enabled and errors occurred, a CSV report of the failed lines is generated and written to the error folder.

The module extends the existing CSV import source and the import source selection, and adds a listener on import recordsets to trigger the file move and the error report. It relies on the SFTP storage backend and the component event system.
