Features

• progress reporting for all standard Odoo import and export operations
• sys tray menu that lists ongoing operations initiated by the logged user (all operations visible to Administrator)
• support for all operations initiated through UI and executed by planned activities (cron)
• generator-like method to simply add progress reporting to any iteration (support for sub-iterations)

For developers

Typically when your code executes any long-term operation there is a loop over a collection in your code.

In order to report progress of the operation, wrap the collection with self.web_progress_iter(collection, msg="Message")

Say, your action method looks as follows:

@api.multi
def action_operation(self):
    for rec in self:
        rec.do_somethig()

Then a progress-reporting-ready version would be:

@api.multi
def action_operation(self):
    for rec in self.web_progress_iter(self, msg="Message"):
        rec.do_somethig()

See the module's documentation for more information.
