AI-generated from the code · Odoo 18.0

When someone posts a message in a Discuss channel, every other member instantly receives a pop-up notification in Odoo telling them there is a new message in that channel.

This module adds an automatic instant notification for chat channels. Whenever a new message is posted in a channel, Odoo sends a pop-up notice to all users who belong to that channel, so they do not have to keep the Discuss window open to notice new activity.

  • The notification text is "You have a new message in channel" followed by the channel name.
  • The person who wrote the message does not receive the notification; only the other channel members do.
  • The notification is delivered through the instant notification system provided by the web_notify module, so it appears as a standard Odoo notification.

The behaviour is triggered from the message posting process on discuss.channel, meaning it applies to messages posted in channels, including messages created automatically by Odoo. The module also adjusts how notifications are sent for users (res.users) so that these channel notifications are delivered with the appropriate permissions, ensuring the pop-up reaches the intended recipients.

No new menus, screens, buttons or reports are added. The change is purely a background behaviour on top of the existing Discuss and notification features.
