userMenu registry

Overview

The registry userMenu gathers the user menu dropdown elements.

Value type

(env: OdooEnv) => UserMenuItem;

where

interface UserMenuItem {
    description: string;
    callback: () => void | Promise<any>;
    hide?: boolean;
    href?: string;
    sequence?: number;
}

Thus each value of the registy is a function taking the environment in entry and returning a plain object with some keys:

• description: the item text,
• href: (optional) if given (and truthy), the item text is put in a a tag with given attribute href,
• callback: callback to call when the item is clicked on,
• hide: (optional) indicates if the item should be hidden (default: false),
• sequence: (optional) determines the rank of the item among the other dropwdown items (default: 100).

Example:

env.registry.userMenu.add("key", (env) => {
  return {
    description: env._t("Technical Settings"),
    callback: () => { env.services.action_manager.doAction(3); };
    hide: (env.browser.random() < 0.5),
  }
}
