migration_search_target_source

To find breaking API changes during Odoo migration, search the target version source code for specific symbols, models, and fields to identify renames, removals, and behavioral modifications. This validates whether your custom modules remain compatible with the new target version.

You can check if a method exists in the target Odoo version by running a source code search with the specific method pattern, such as 'def action_invoice_open', and the relevant addons path. This parses Python code to confirm the symbol's presence and expected behavior.

Yes, Odoo migration compatibility validation requires direct access to the target version source code. The process parses Python code within the target sources to accurately identify API changes, removed fields, and renamed models that could impact your custom modules.

The best way to validate custom module compatibility is executing a targeted source search across the target Odoo version. This identifies breaking changes, removed methods, and altered APIs, ensuring your custom modules function correctly before completing the upgrade.

Custom Odoo modules fail after migration when target versions contain breaking changes like removed fields or renamed models. Searching the target source code identifies these specific API changes, allowing you to update Python code and restore compatibility.

Yes, you can use source code parsing to detect API changes across Odoo addons directories. By specifying a search pattern and a target path like 'addons/account', the tool parses Python code to locate methods, models, and fields within that specific addon scope.
