The output steps available in Pentaho Kettle and Talend have a few limitations. They do not support XML Ids and the same output step can perform only either create or write operations, not both (related to https://github.com/odoo/odoo/pull/2258).
This module provides a server side proxy model, import.loader, that solves those limitations. New records created should have a data field with the payload to import. This payload is parsed and then imported into the target model, using the load() method. This means that serialization rules that apply to CSV file import are apply here.
The ETL tools can then perform naive create operations on import.loader, providing a data string with the payload, and this model will do the necessary handling and loading.
The payload is string representing a list of rows. Each row is a dictionary of field names/values, and must include an additional _model key indicating the target model.
This means that the same payload can load one or more records, into one or more models.
Here is an example of a date payload to create or update a new contact:
` { "_model": "res.partner" , "id": "res_partner_eric" , "name": "Eric" , "is_company": false , "user_id/id": "base.user_root" } `
A usage example for Pentaho Kettle is provided in the import_loader_demo.ktr file.
