Iam currently creating a module and can get it working as Iam finding the developer manual wording hard to follow. basically i have a class called Products.py and I have a Webcall.py class that makes a GET request to my localhost to return to a json object. the json returns fine when I test the class. but when I try to run the whole module nothing happens. I want the module to prepopulate the database of products on load of the module, with the data from the GET request. Once this is done i want this data diplayed in a simple tree view. I have checked the server log but it does flag any errors. below is my Products.py module.

from openerp.osv import osv,fields
import WebCall

class Products(osv.Model):
    _name = "products.products",
    _columns = {
        "name": fields.text("Prod Name", size=100),
        "code": fields.text("Code"),
        "sku": fields.text("SKU"),
        "description": fields.text("Description"),
        "salepricewithvat": fields.float("Sale Price + VAT"),
        "group": fields.float("Group"),
        "id": fields.text("ID"),
        "applicationid": fields.text("App ID"),



    }
    _defaults = {}


    def init(self,cr):

        webcall = WebCall("my web url goes here!!")
        webcall.makecall()

        if webcall.checkrequest():
            print "test"
        else:
            webcall.createdict()
            self.uploaddictionary(webcall.dict["Resources"])

     def uploaddictionary(self, dictionary):

        for item in dictionary:
            self.create(item)

then i have the WebCall.py class which is just a regular python class

import json import urllib2 import exceptions

class WebCall(object):


 def __init__(self,url):
    self.url = url
    self.attdictionary = {}
    self.errors=[]
    self.response =""
    self.dict=""


 def makecall(self):

    request = urllib2.Request(self.url)

    try:
        self.response = urllib2.urlopen(request,  timeout=10)
    except urllib2.HTTPError, error :
        self.errors.append(error.code)
    except urllib2.URLError, error :
        self.errors.append(error.reason)
    except IOError,  error:
        self.errors.append(error.errno)

    return self.response


 def  checkrequest(self):
    return len(self.errors) > 0


 def createdict(self):

     if self.dict  == "":
         self.dict = json.load(self.response)

     return self.dict

then I have the .xml view file. I think this is where i have the issue because I dont really understand how to use the view correctly yet.

<?xml version="1.0"?>
  <openerp>
    <data>

    <record id="products_tree" model="ir.ui.view">
    <field name = "name">products.products.treeview</field>
    <field name= "model"> products.products</field>
    <field name="arch" type="xml">
    <tree string="prods" version="7.0">
        <field name="Name"   />
        <field  name="Code" />
        <field  name="SKU" />
        <field  name="Description" />
        <field   name="Sale Price + VAT" />
        <field   name="Group" />
        <field   name="ID" />
        <field   name="Application ID" />
     </tree>
    </field>
    </record>


    <record   model="ir.actions.act_window"
       id="myaction">
        <field name="name">products.products.action</field>
        <field name="res_model">products.products</field>
        <field name="view_type">tree</field>
        <field name="view_mode">form,tree</field>

    </record>



    <menuitem id="main_item"  name="List Of Products"/>
    <menuitem id="main_item_child"   name="Products" parent="main_item"/>
    <menuitem id="main_item_option"   name="Products List" parent="main_item_child" action="myaction" />

        </data>
  </openerp>

the module just doesnt display in installed modules Ive looked a the .log file and this is what is returned in the latest log

What about your __init__.py and __openerp__.py files ?
