jca_views_db_diff

Effortlessly diagnose and resolve view discrepancies by comparing your file-based XML views directly with their compiled versions in the database.

Description

The jca_views_db_diff module is an essential debugging tool for Odoo developers and administrators. It provides a direct comparison between the view definitions stored in your codebase (XML files) and the active, compiled views currently loaded in the Odoo database. This allows for the rapid identification of inconsistencies, synchronization errors, or unexpected overwrites that often cause views to malfunction or display incorrectly. By instantly highlighting these differences, the app significantly reduces debugging time, ensures view integrity, and streamlines the development and deployment process.
