Cenit IO Integrations Client

Cenit IO Integrations Client allows you to integrate your Odoo system with many third party services available over the internet using the Cenit IO platform as data integrator.

Cenit IO (https://cenit.io) is an Open Platform for Data and Business Integration (iPaaS) to process, storage and move data in connection with Cloud or On-Premise services. It has been designed to orchestrate data flows that may involve several kind of endpoints (APIs, Datasets, EDI). It makes possible the automation of all operational processes in a company, connecting between organization's on-premises infrastructure and cloud provider services.

It allows the creation of custom data pipelines for process, storage and data movement between APIs –either cloud or on premises-. The flows could be trigger by data events or be scheduled.

Overview

  • The Cenit IO platform provides a set of models that allow you to map your data once and send it transparently to any service supported by the platform.
  • The Cenit IO platform is free and community friendly, and makes use of open source and standards so that community driven development is easier.

Requirements

The Cenit Integrations Client requires a few additional Python packages to be installed on your system. These dependencies can be easily installed using pip as follows:

$ pip install inflect
$ pip install requests[security]
$ pip install html2text

If not using pip you should manually install the following Python packages:

  • inflect
  • pyOpenSSL
  • ndg-httpsclient
  • pyasn1
  • html2text

Actual package names depend on your specific system.

Documentation

The Cenit Integrations Client groups its provided models in two categories describing what data you want to be able to send/receive and when you want to send/receive the data.

Data definitions

The models gathered here describe the what, they manipulate the Odoo data to shape it in a way that is consistent with supported third party services.

Libraries

Libraries are a mere logical organization of the data. They exist solely for the purpose of organizing Schemas and Data types.

Fields
  • name: string

    The name of the Library.

    Must be unique.

  • slug: string

    A sanitized string containing only lower case alphanumeric characters and underscores.

    It identifies the Library and must therefore be unique.

Schemas

Schemas are the fundamental stone of the cenit.io_ platform models. They define the way data is stored and transmitted.

Fields
  • library: reference

    The Library to which the Schema belongs.

  • name: string

    The name of the Schema.

    Must be unique for each Library.

  • slug: string

    A sanitized string containing only lowercase alphanumeric characters and underscores.

    Must be unique for each Library.

  • schema: string

    The actual JSON schema describing the data.

Data types

Data types represent a mapping between an existing Odoo model and a Schema.

Fields

  • name: string

    The name of the Data type.

  • model: reference

    The Odoo model that will by associated with the Data type.

  • library: reference

    The Library to which the Data type belongs.

  • schema: reference

    The Schema against which the model will be mapped.

  • enabled: boolean

    If unchecked the Data type will be stored but won't trigger any event. This is most useful when the mapping is intended to be used embedded from another Data type.

  • mapping: structure

    Describes how to translate the model to the schema. It consists of a series of mapping lines, describing which model data should go into which schema property.

    • name: string

      the name of the schema property that will store the value expressed in value.

    • value: string

      represents an actual value to use, depending on the type.

    • type: one of

      • Field: tells the Data type that the value expressed in value is the name of a field in the model (say name). This does not allow using nested fields (that is: rel_id.name will cause breakdown).

      • Model: tells the Data type that the value expressed in value is a reference to other Data type. This means that when sending/receiving the data, the related Odoo model will also be serialized/deserialized (according to the specified reference) and fully processed as if it were the one that triggered the action.

      • Reference: tells the Data type that the value expressed in value is a reference to other model not mapped by any Data type. In this case the field name of the related model is used as an identifier.

      • Default: tells the Data type that the value expressed in value should be treated as a string literal, which can contain replacement patterns in the form of {field_name} where field_name is the name of a field in the model.

        This form does allow the use of nested fields (e.g: {rel_id.name}), and also can be a json structure, in which case the JSON brackets should be doubled: {{ and }} (e.g: {{client: "{client.name}"}}).

      • Python code: tells the Data type that the value expressed in value should be evaluated (it is actually processed by a call to Python's eval builtin function). The special variable obj refers to the object being mapped.

    • reference: reference

      used when type is Model.

      This refers to a Data type against which the value is mapped.

    • cardinality: one of

      • 2one: the value represents a single object.

      • 2many: the value represents a list of objects.

      used when type is Model or Reference.

    • primary: if checked, the field will be used as an identifier when receiving data.

  • triggers: one of

    • On creation: every time an instance of model is created on Odoo, a serialization to schema will be performed.

    • On update: every time an existing instance of model is modified in Odoo, a serialization to schema will be performed.

    • On creation or update: every time instance of model is created or modified, a serialization to schema will be performed.

    • On interval: every 10 minutes all instances of model will be serialized to schema.

    • Only manually: serialization will only be performed when specifically requested to Odoo.

  • Conditions: structure

    • field: string

      The name of a field in model.

    • condition: one of

      • Equal: the value of field for the instance of model being serialized must be equal to value.

      • Different: the value of field for the instance of model being serialized must be different than value.

      • In: the value of field for the instance of model being serialized must be present in value.

      • Not in: the value of field for the instance of model being serialized must not be present in value.

    • value: string

      If condition is one of In or Not in, value will be splitted by commas to form a list
