What it does
Viindoo Unified Routing Framework (to_geo_routes) provides a unified routing framework for Odoo/Viindoo, allowing the system to request directions, distance, duration, polyline geometry, and multi-leg routes from different providers through a single standardized API.
The module acts as the core abstraction layer for all mapping/routing integrations (Google, Mapbox, HERE, SeaRoutes, Vietmap, etc.) and enables any business module (Fleet, Logistics, Delivery, VRP, Booking, Field Services) to compute routes in a provider-independent, reliable, and extensible way.
Key Features
- Unified Routing API
- Standardized output for distance, duration, polylines, steps, and legs.
- Abstract models for routes, sections, points, and transport modes.
- Clean isolation between business modules and external providers.
- Multi-provider Architecture
- Plugin architecture for adding routing providers.
- Automatic fallback and provider selection logic.
- Support for different modes: driving, trucking, walking, cycling.
- Foundation for Fleet & Logistics Optimization
- Provides normalized route data for VRP optimizers.
- Supports trip planning, booking allocation, dispatching, and transport cycles.
- Works seamlessly with routing provider modules such as: - to_geo_routes_google - to_geo_routes_mapbox - to_geo_routes_here - to_geo_routes_searoutes - to_geo_routes_vietmap
- Designed for Large-scale Operations
- Efficient caching and low-latency lookup.
- Provider switching by country, use-case, or cost strategy.
- Fully extensible for enterprise-grade logistics applications.
Note
This is a core module for complex routing requirements. Detailed functionalities like delivery, passenger, or employee travel management require additional modules to leverage the full potential of this foundation.
Technical Requirements
This module requires Google's ortools library version 9.11.4210 and polyline version 2.0.3. You could install it with pip
pip install ortools==9.11.4210 pip install polyline==2.0.3
Editions Supported
- Community Edition
- Enterprise Edition
Installation
- Navigate to Apps.
- Find with keyword to_geo_routes.
- Install it as usual then you are done.
Concepts
- Route Section: is a section defined by two addresses where each Address (aka From and To) is a partner record. This design model to ensure short learning curve and easy to extend and fully integrated with existing features in the system.
- Waypoint: also known as Route Waypoint, is a model that presents an instance of an Address which creates a data link between a Route and an Address in the system.
- Segment: also known as Route Section, is a model that presents an instance of a Section which creates a data link between a Route and an Route Section in the system.
- Route: is a model to present a route that defined by Waypoints and Sections. Then the system will automatically find and link the related Sections and Addresses for the Route.
Instructions
- Without other modules that extending this module, you are required to be a system administrator to access the module's menu: Settings > Geo-Routes. If you have other modules that developed on top of this, there should be other ways to access the features. For example, if you have the module viin_fleet_planning installed, you may access the features through Fleet Booking > Routes & Waypoints which does not required administrator access rights. In this document, it is assumed that you have administration access rights.
- Define a new Route:
- Navigate to Settings > Geo-Routes > Routes to see the routes list view.
- Press Create to open the route form view, on which you can input:
- The name of the route. For example: Hanoi to Ha Long Bay via Hai Phong City.
- In the Waypoint tab, press Add a line to add waypoints for your route.
- In the Segments tab, you can add information about distance and average speed. The estimated time will be automatically computed.
