Subject: Re: [Openerp-community] Draft Proposal for a new field type for OpenERP/Odoo 
 
Hi,

let me expand a bit with what Guewen said (I agree with him).

Configurable attributes and related issues got much attention, one reason being that they are important for e-commerce applications (see OCA project https://github.com/oca/product-attribute ;)

My advice is, before going any further with new work, give a thorough test starting with module product_custom_attributes on 7.0. 

In particular, you can decide to store attributes as normal columns or to serialize all of them as JSON. Furthermore, you can define different attribute sets for each product (i.e. the product shoe has attributes size and color, where the product computer has attributes disk and ram).

Yes that's it.
 
This field is stored by orm in xml schema the user doesn't have any control the way the data is store. This field is just added to the structure to allow the user put their own field. The user field are restricted, and this is the thing I want different opinions regarding what and how would be. For example, should we define a data as "integer", "float", "currency", or just "number". Because user might not know what is the difference.

what we should try to see, is what
May be intersting but we need to limit this feature in order to avoid end user mismatch.
Totally agree.  This is what I'm looking for, to improve the paper.
I think may be dangerous use no text data type, expecially python code like eval tag of xml file; I think we do limit node nesting level and, yes, I agree data cannot be related field. Perhaps we could use only text type.
For my point of view, whatever is there will be treated as text. From the point of view of the user  he only see a table on which e can add a field name and it's value. Also the fields are not allow to be used for any kind of operation like add, subs.
Did you think how these data can be used in report?
Good point! that's something to add to the proposal.  Since it's actually a pair (field name, value), assuming that for each         tuple, one can have  no metadata, one can have N. We would make this field be only available for loops (repeatIn). The it would be  just for the sake of more control we could do the following where to put the field name and its value:

object.xml_field_name.fieldName: would print all the existing         field names,
object.xml_field_name.fieldValue: would print all the existing         field values,

This would allow to control where and how I want to put this data. This would not allow indexing, since for each tuple we         don't know it's max size. so if there is data it will print all, inside a loop.

Imagine having spec for a car in database, which car is your product with its specs, and at the same time having also a car part with it's own spec.

Also to remember that for form view, the client will not necessarily know field as a name "field  name". It can be like " Property" or "Característic".  I would be adding those ins a widget just as a table, so the user will never write the xml. only the

Furthermore, this field should be searchable
