Yes, dispatcher is sort of what I'm looking for. What you suggest is ingenious! Me coming from languages like Java/Pascal/C/Assembler would never think of approach you suggested :-) I mean dynamically calling method name like that. I wanted to do this by standard inheritance chaining of the same method where only the appropriate one would process the request.

Thanks for the eye-opener!

Best regards

Hi,

It sounds to me like you are suggesting a standard dispatcher.

There is already plenty of this in Odoo. Company specific headers, company specific pricelists, bank specific imports, EDI processing orders, mail.channel specific commands (those are dynamically defined and executed, probably best example for this).

Just define a parent module with a standard API dispatcher and a selection field (or Char) where it makes sense.

e.g in base module - very pseudo if its python, if it is web based or you just need a URL for standard data maybe it may be different but you get the idea.
class Company:
field = fields.Selection(base)

class Partner:
def complete:
  ensure_one()
  return getattr(self, 'complete_{self.env.user_id.company_id.field}', self.complete_base)()

def complete base

extension module
add field to selection say modb
def complete_modb()

Hi,

the question was meant more towards good design of something that covers the 
same area functionally (in this case partner autocomplete) but needs to 
provide more implementations that are chosen based on certain criteria.

So in my case I need to have more than one different implementation of the same 
functionality present in the system and choose the appropriate one - in my 
case based on current company being active and configuration for that company.

That leads me to some kind plugin system and was wondering if there was 
anything like that existing in Odoo / OCA already.

Best regards
