Reload kanban view after a wizards closes in ODOO 8 - odoo

Question

I am trying to execute an action after a wizard action is performed, i want to reload a kanban:
Python code:
return {'type': 'ir.actions.act_close_wizard_and_reload_view', }
Javascript code: (taken from the forum, i think for version 7)
openerp.bmwe_crm = function(instance, local) {
instance.web.ActionManager = instance.web.ActionManager.extend({
ir_actions_act_close_wizard_and_reload_view: function (action,options) {
if (!this.dialog) {
options.on_close();
}
this.dialog_stop();
this.inner_widget.views[this.inner_widget.active_view].controller.reload();
return $.when();
}
});
}
All this from a forum about 7.0 version, but i am using 8.0 and it does not seems to work. I've even trying executing a default action:
return { 'type': 'ir.actions.client', 'tag': 'reload'}
Does not reload the page neither

I can solved this right now as follow
static/src/js/your_module_name.js
openerp.yout_module = function (instance) {
instance.web.ActionManager = instance.web.ActionManager.extend({
ir_actions_act_close_wizard_and_reload_view: function (action, options) {
if (!this.dialog) {
options.on_close();
}
this.dialog_stop();
this.inner_widget.active_view.controller.reload();
return $.when();
},
});
}
views/your_module_name.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<openerp>
<data>
<template id="assets_backend" name="your_module_name assets" inherit_id="web.assets_backend">
<xpath expr="." position="inside">
<script type="text/javascript" src="/your_module_name/static/src/js/your_js_file_name.js"></script>
</xpath>
</template>
</data>
</openerp>
wizard/your_wizard.py
return { 'type' : 'ir.actions.act_close_wizard_and_reload_view' }

reference2
above the references, they are using
this.inner_widget.views[this.inner_widget.active_view].controller.reload();
but it is not working in v8. So, I modified it to
this.inner_widget.active_view.controller.reload();
Now, it is working.

To reload a view you can return a view like below. It will return & reload the desired view when wizard closes.
ir_model_data = self.env['ir.model.data']
view_id = ir_model_data.get_object_reference('module_name', 'view_name')[1]
return {
'name': 'view name',
'view_type': 'form',
'view_mode': 'kanban,tree,form',
'res_model': 'your.model.to.reload',
'view_id': view_id,
'context': self._context,
'type': 'ir.actions.act_window',
'target': 'current',
}

DISCALIMER: Not the best FIX, but it's a FIX.
NOTE: In teory odoo 8 web client engine must execute the Action that the Wizards returns in the python code function. This works in all views, except in Kanban views. So this is the workaround:
In the server, create a message in the odoo bus, every time you want to notify something happends:
bus = self.env['bus.bus']
message = {
'subject': '',
'body': 'Appointment Set',
'mode': 'notify',
}
bus.sendone('<CHANNEL-NAME>', message)
Then, in the frontend you must listen for a message on this channel:
First, register the channel (With out this, it wouldn't work)
openerp.bmwe_crm = function(instance, local) {
var bus = instance.bus.bus;
bus.add_channel("<CHANNEL-NAME>");
});
};
Second, reload the kanban when something happend in the channel:
openerp.bmwe_crm = function(instance, local) {
var bus = instance.bus.bus;
bus.add_channel("<CHANNEL-NAME>");
instance.bus.bus.on("notification", instance, function(notification){
instance.client.action_manager.inner_widget.views["kanban"].controller.do_reload();
});
};
DONE!

In my odoo this solution doesn't work...
[ironic mode on] It is one of those things I love about Odoo [ironic mode off]
To other person than the proposal solution doesn't work and need one solution, try this:
return {
'type': 'ir.actions.client',
'tag': 'reload',
}
where you return value, or close the wizard, put this code.
Seriously , good luck.
