Why this module?

Odoo already lets you define static confirmation texts via confirm="message" in <button> tag. This module upgrades that behavior by letting you pass a Python method name directly via confirm_method="method_name". When the user clicks the button, the method runs, returning a message that reflects the current record state. The dialog always shows relevant guidance without maintaining dozens of XML variants.

Key capabilities

• Works on any button that already supports the confirm attribute.
• Re-computes the confirmation text every time the button is pressed.
• Fallbacks if the Python method returns an empty string (no dialog shown).
• Errors are reported to the user through the standard notification service.

How to configure

1. Create or reuse a button in XML.
2. Set confirm_method="your_python_method" in <button> tag to specify the method to call.
3. Implement your_python_method on the model. It must return a string representing the confirmation message. Returning an empty string skips the dialog.

Example use cases

• Warn users about outstanding tasks right before validating a document.
• Display contextual totals or dates inside the confirmation pop-up.
• Block the action if server-side checks fail by raising an exception.
