What are the main ORM methods this skill teaches?

This skill covers Odoo ORM methods including search(), browse(), create(), write(), and unlink() for reading and writing records, plus recordset methods like mapped(), filtered(), sorted(), search_count(), and with_context() to replace manual Python loops.

What's the correct way to pass dates in Odoo domain filters?

Dates must be passed as 'YYYY-MM-DD' strings in domain tuples, not as Python date or datetime objects, because the ORM serializes strings correctly but not raw date objects.

What performance anti-patterns does this skill help avoid?

The skill flags common performance killers including calling search() inside a loop, using raw datetime objects in domains, unnecessary sudo() use, and using len(search()) instead of search_count().

What does this skill NOT cover?

It does not cover cr.execute() raw SQL patterns in depth, partitioning strategies for stored computed fields at scale, or transient models and wizard patterns; for SQL-level optimization, use the Odoo performance tuner skill instead.

Overview

Odoo ORM Expert

This skill teaches Odoo's Object Relational Mapper (ORM) in depth, covering how to read and write records, build domain filters, work with relational fields, and avoid common performance pitfalls like N+1 queries. Use this when you need to learn Odoo ORM fundamentals including record operations, domain filter construction, relational field handling, and N+1 query avoidance.

What it does

This skill teaches Odoo's Object Relational Mapper (ORM) in depth. It covers reading and writing records, building domain filters, working with relational fields, and avoiding common performance pitfalls like N+1 queries.

When to use - and when NOT to

Use this skill when you need to learn Odoo ORM fundamentals including record operations, domain filter construction, relational field handling, and N+1 query avoidance.

Do not use this skill if you're working with Odoo's frontend framework or XML views without backend logic requirements. Do not use it if you need general Python ORM knowledge for non-Odoo frameworks like SQLAlchemy or Django ORM, as Odoo's ORM has its own specific syntax and conventions.

Inputs and outputs

You provide questions about Odoo ORM operations. You receive instruction on reading and writing records, building domain filters, working with relational fields, and avoiding N+1 query performance pitfalls.

Who it's for
