web_nocreatedb: Trying to port to v8, unsuccessfully about web HOT 8 CLOSED

In xpath, you need to prefix attributes in predicates with an @. Try
<xpath expr="//div[@class='oe_single_form_footer']" position="replace">

But in the template, you'll see that the database manager part is wrapped in
<t t-if="not disable_database_manager">
why don't you simply that this flag from the module?

from web.

I thought about it, but... how do I set that flag? t-set? Shouldn't it be done inside the t-call (which I do not know how to reference)?

@hbrunn Got it!
This is working:

<openerp>
    <data>
        <template id="login_layout_no_db" inherit_id="web.login_layout" name="Login Layout">
            <xpath expr="//div[@class='oe_single_form_footer']" position="before">
                <t t-set="disable_database_manager" t-value="1"/>
            </xpath>
        </template>
    </data>
</openerp>

I will prepare the pull request in the afternoon for review.

No, it is not working, though it worked once. But reloading it, just make it reappear.
I will work on it.

from web.

It is only working if I select the database in which I installed manually the module.
If I choose another database, it shows again.
Therefore, either --load=web,web_nocreatedb or auto_install = True are failling.

Any clue?

from web.

makes sense: auto_install = True only has an effect if you update your module list and upgrade modules. v8 style templates only live in the database, so they must be installed in every database you want this to be in effect, and --load only causes the code to load, not database changes being done.

What to do? As it's only a cosmetic module anyways (we can still access the database manager by url), it's fine to install this in every database where it's supposed to be effective

from web.

So auto_install and --load ares almost useless in this situation.
OK, I will explain it in module description.

Solved and made a pull request here: #89
