MuK REST API for Odoo
A customizable Restful API for Odoo
MuK IT GmbH - www.mukit.at
Overview
Enables a REST API for the Odoo server. The API has routes to authenticate and retrieve a token. Afterwards, a set of routes to interact with the server are provided. The API can be used by any language or framework which can make an HTTP requests and receive responses and works with both the Community and the Enterprise Edition.

In case the module should be active in every database just change
the auto install flag to
True
. To activate the routes even if no database is selected the module
should be loaded right at the server start. This can be done by
editing the configuration file or passing a load parameter to the
start script.
Parameter:
--load=web,muk_rest

Custom Endpoints
In addition to the existing API endpoints, more can easily be added. It is not necessary to write any kind of code. New endpoints can be created in the backend and are immediately available through the API.
Different types of endpoints can be created. The domain evaluation can be used to query certain data and return it via the API. The second type calls a particular server action that is defined in the system. And if you have a more complex case, you can enter a Python code directly in the backend.
Extend the API
Even if the API is extended using Python code, the REST API framework provides a number of helpers. Keep in mind that if these extensions are included in a new module, it may also have to be loaded as a global module to make the created endpoints available without a selected database.
from odoo import http from odoo.http import request, Response from odoo.addons.muk_rest import tools from odoo.addons.muk_rest.utils.json import ResponseEncoder class ModelController(odoo.http.Controller): @odoo.http.route([ '/api/myapp/myroute' ], auth="none", type='http', methods=['GET'], csrf=False) @tools.common.parse_exception @tools.common.ensure_database @tools.common.ensure_module() @tools.security.protected() def myroute(self, **kw): result = ... content = json.dumps(result, sort_keys=True, indent=4, cls=ResponseEncoder) return Response(content, content_type='application/json;charset=utf-8', status=200)

Restful API
Enables a REST API for the Odoo server. The API has routes to authenticate and retrieve a token. Afterwards, a set of routes to interact with the server are provided.
Requirements
OAuthLib
A generic, spec-compliant, thorough implementation of the OAuth request-signinglogic for Python. To install OAuthLib please follow the instructions or install the library via pip.
pip install oauthlib
Installation
To install this module, you need to:
Download the module and add it to your Odoo addons folder. Afterward, log on to your Odoo server and go to the Apps menu. Trigger the debug mode and update the list by clicking on the "Update Apps List" link. Now install the module by clicking on the install button.
Another way to install this module is via the package management for Python (PyPI).
To install our modules using the package manager make sure odoo-autodiscover is installed correctly. Then open a console and install the module by entering the following command:
pip install --extra-index-url https://nexus.mukit.at/repository/odoo/simple <module>
The module name consists of the Odoo version and the module name, where underscores are replaced by a dash.
Module:
odoo<version>-addon-<module_name>
Example:
sudo -H pip3 install --extra-index-url https://nexus.mukit.at/repository/odoo/simple odoo11-addon-muk-utils
Once the installation has been successfully completed, the app is already in the correct folder. Log on to your Odoo server and go to the Apps menu. Trigger the debug mode and update the list by clicking on the "Update Apps List" link. Now install the module by clicking on the install button.
The biggest advantage of this variant is that you can now also update the app using the "pip" command. To do this, enter the following command in your console:
pip install --upgrade --extra-index-url https://nexus.mukit.at/repository/odoo/simple <module>
When the process is finished, restart your server and update the application in Odoo. The steps are the same as for the installation only the button has changed from "Install" to "Upgrade".
You can also view available Apps directly in our repository and find a more detailed installation guide on our website.
For modules licensed under OPL-1, you will receive access data when you purchase the module. If the modules were not purchased directly from MuK IT please contact our support (support@mukit.at) with a confirmation of purchase to receive the corresponding access data.
Upgrade
To upgrade this module, you need to:
Download the module and add it to your Odoo addons folder. Restart the server and log on to your Odoo server. Select the Apps menu and upgrade the module by clicking on the upgrade button.
If you installed the module using the "pip" command, you can also update the module in the same way. Just type the following command into the console:
pip install --upgrade --extra-index-url https://nexus.mukit.at/repository/odoo/simple <module>
When the process is finished, restart your server and update the application in Odoo, just like you would normally.
Configuration
In case the module should be active in every database just change the auto install flag to True. To activate the routes even if no database is selected the module should be loaded right at the server start. This can be done by editing the configuration file or passing a load parameter to the start script.
Parameter: --load=web,muk_rest
To configure this module, you need to:
- Go to Settings -> Restful API -> Dashboard. Here you can see an overview of all your APIs.
- Click on Create or go to either Restful API -> OAuth1 or Restful API -> OAuth2 to create a new API.
Usage
This module provides a set of routes to interact with the system via HTTP requests. Currently it is not possible to send requests with the content type "application/json" due to a limitation of the Odoo framework. Take a look at the clients and examples or open the documentation to get a detailed description of every available route.

Any abuse of this reporting system will be penalizedDoes not support the PKCE for native app ?
Public native app clients MUST implement the Proof Key for Code Exchange (PKCE [RFC7636]) extension to OAuth. Best Practice OAuth 2.0 for Native Apps : https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc8252.txt this module allow authorization code using only client authentification is not secure for distributed native apps because the client secret is embedded in the client and is sent with requests
Perfect
Perfect module and perfect technical support. Thanx!
nice
nice module
See tests at: muk_rest/tests/test_database_rest.py
Therefore I think it is very unlikely that it is due to the REST API. So either the error is already in your used Odoo version or you have specified several databases. Please report bugs and errors to Github, as the Odoo App Store does not inform me when a new comment is posted. https://github.com/muk-it/muk_docs/tree/12%2C0/muk_rest Or write an email to support@mukit.at
The drop route executes the following code: http.dispatch_rpc('db','drop', [ master_password, database_name]) which is the same as Odoo does with an rpc call or if you delete a database in the database manager.
uggly error!!!!!!!!!1
hey did you tested your code well? we just tried to delete a database using /api/database/drop path with only one database name but it deleted all!! databases in our postgresql instance! how do we restore our data now??!
uid
How I can fetch uid? I have this line in 3rd party module: customer_group = self.env['res.users'].sudo().browse(uid).customer_grp_id if uid else request.website.user_id.sudo().customer_grp_id When I fetch data from rest api, I have not UID.
How to fetch User_id of current logged
How can I get Uid of current logged user just in case to use it in search criteria?
Which languages are supported?
The REST API can be used by any language/framework which can make/receive an HTTP requests/responses with JSON payloads.
How to connect to the Demo System?
How to connect to the Demo System?
== Javascript == $.ajax({ method: "POST", url: "https://muk-rest-demo.mukit.at/api/authenticate", data: { db: "O11-muk-rest-demo.mukit.at", login: "demo", password: "demo", } }).done(function(msg) { alert(msg); }); == Python == import requests def authentication(self): response = requests.post( "https://muk-rest-demo.mukit.at/api/authenticate", data = { 'db': "O11-muk-rest-demo.mukit.at", 'login': "demo", 'password': "demo" } ) return response.json()['token']
Does it work on CE and EE?
Our test system runs on the Odoo Community Edition, but since the module doesn't use any features exclusively provided by the Community Edition, it will run on both versions.
