Technical Details
Models
The module extends the hr.employee model with two new computed fields:
- zodiac_sign: Character field that stores the name of the zodiac sign
- zodiac_symbol: Character field that stores the symbol of the zodiac sign
Both fields are computed based on the employee's birth date using the _compute_zodiac method.
Zodiac Calculation Logic
The zodiac sign is determined by checking which date range the birth date falls into:
- Aries: March 21 - April 19 (♈)
- Taurus: April 20 - May 20 (♉)
- Gemini: May 21 - June 20 (♊)
- Cancer: June 21 - July 22 (♋)
- Leo: July 23 - August 22 (♌)
- Virgo: August 23 - September 22 (♍)
- Libra: September 23 - October 22 (♎)
- Scorpio: October 23 - November 21 (♏)
- Sagittarius: November 22 - December 21 (♐)
- Capricorn: December 22 - January 19 (♑)
- Aquarius: January 20 - February 18 (♒)
- Pisces: February 19 - March 20 (♓)
The implementation handles edge cases like leap years and the Capricorn sign which spans from one year to the next.
Views
The module extends the following views:
- hr.view_employee_form: Adds zodiac fields to the employee form view
- hr.view_employee_filter: Adds filtering and grouping options for zodiac signs
Testing
