Give the posibility to store media data in Odoo

auto_awesome What this module does

AI-generated from the code · Odoo 18.0

Lets you store and organise media files (images, videos, documents) in Odoo, with their own media types and storage backend, and replace a media file without losing its record.

This module adds a Media area to Odoo so you can keep media files inside the system instead of only on a disk or external service.

  • A new Storage Media screen lists all media with their name, media type, and whether they are public or private. You can search by name, media type, backend, or URL, filter Public/Private and Archived, and group by storage backend.
  • On a media record you can upload the file, see its URL, give it a name, choose a Media Type, and pick the storage backend. A Replace File button opens a small window where you upload a new file to replace the current one.
  • A Storage Media Type screen lets you define categories of media (for example image, video, document) with a name and a code.
  • When you save a media record, the file name is automatically cleaned up into a web-friendly form, and the file is marked as a media file. If no storage backend is chosen, the default one configured in settings is used.
  • Deleting a media record also deletes its underlying file.
  • A Swap Storage Backend action is available on media records to move their files to another backend.
  • Access is controlled by a Storage Media Manager group; regular users can read media, while only managers can create, change, or delete them and manage media types.
