Model
=====
.. class:: Model([id[, \**kwargs]])
This is the base class that every kind of :ref:`model <topics-models>`
inherits. It defines common attributes of all models.
Class attributes are:
.. attribute:: Model.__name__
It contains the a unique name to reference the model throughout the
platform.
.. attribute:: Model.__rpc__
It contains a dictionary with method name as key and an instance of
:class:`trytond.rpc.RPC` as value.
.. attribute:: Model._error_messages
It contains a dictionary mapping keywords to an error message. By way of
example::
_error_messages = {
'recursive_categories': 'You can not create recursive categories!',
'wrong_name': 'You can not use " / " in name field!'
}
.. attribute:: Model._rec_name
It contains the name of the field used as name of records. The default
value is 'name'.
.. attribute:: Model.id
The definition of the field ``id`` of records.
Class methods:
.. classmethod:: Model.__setup__()
Setup the class before adding into the :class:`trytond.pool.Pool`.
.. classmethod:: Model.__post_setup__()
Setup the class after added into the :class:`trytond.pool.Pool`.
.. classmethod:: Model.__register__(module_name)
Registers the model in ``ir.model`` and ``ir.model.field``.
.. classmethod:: Model.raise_user_error(error[, error_args[, error_description[, error_description_args[, raise_exception]]]])
Raises an exception that will be displayed as an error message in the
client. ``error`` is the key of the error message in ``_error_messages``
and ``error_args`` is the arguments for the "%"-based substitution of the
error message. There is the same parameter for an additional description.
The boolean ``raise_exception`` can be set to ``False`` to retrieve the
error message strings.
.. classmethod:: Model.raise_user_warning(warning_name, warning[, warning_args[, warning_description[, warning_description_args]]])
Raises an exception that will be displayed as a warning message on the
client, if the user has not yet bypassed it. ``warning_name`` is used to
uniquely identify the warning. Others parameters are like in
:meth:`Model.raise_user_error`.

It requires that the cursor will be commited as it stores state of the
warning states by users.
..
.. classmethod:: Model.default_get(fields_names[, with_rec_name])
Returns a dictionary with the default values for each field in
``fields_names``. Default values are defined by the returned value of each
instance method with the pattern ``default_`field_name`()``.
``with_rec_name`` allow to add `rec_name` value for each many2one field.
.. classmethod:: Model.fields_get([fields_names])
Return the definition of each field on the model.
Instance methods:
.. method:: Model.on_change(fieldnames)
Returns the list of changes by calling `on_change` method of each field.
