- apply OCA script migration with OpenUpgrade
In Odoo 14, the test bundle was renamed from web.qunit_suite to web.qunit_suite_tests. The old xpath also referenced kanban_tests.js which no longer exists at the expected path, causing an install error. Use expr="." position="inside" for a stable injection.

Odoo 14 validates the type field of ir.ui.view against a selection
list. Without extending the model to add ("diagram", "Diagram"),
installing any module with a diagram view raises:
"Wrong value for ir.ui.view.type: 'diagram'".
Follows the same pattern as OCA web_timeline.

Odoo 14's view postprocessor validates all <field> elements against the main diagram model via NameManager. Since <node> and <arrow> each declare their own 'object' model, their child fields must be validated against that model instead. Without this, installing any module with a diagram view raises a field-not-found error on the connector's source/destination fields.

BasicView._processNode traverses all <field> elements in the arch and looks them up in fv.viewFields (the main model's fields). For diagram views, <node> and <arrow> fields belong to their own object models, causing field to be undefined and crashing _getFieldWidgetClass at field.type. Stop traversal into those tags and guard field lookups in init against undefined. Generated by Claude Code 2.1.84 model claude-sonnet-4-6 Co-Authored-By: Mathieu Benoit <mathben@technolibre.ca>
ir.ui.view.graph_get() was dropped from Odoo core when the diagram view was removed in v14. The diagram controller still calls it to compute node positions and transitions. Port the Odoo 13 implementation into the module's own ir.ui.view override so the method is available.

odoo.tools.graph was dropped in Odoo 14 along with the diagram view. Port the Odoo 13 implementation into the module under tools/graph.py and update the import to use the local copy. Generated by Claude Code 2.1.84 model claude-sonnet-4-6 Co-Authored-By: Mathieu Benoit <mathben@technolibre.ca>
Odoo 15 dropped the `qweb` manifest key and the XML template inheritance pattern for assets. Assets must now be declared under the `assets` key in __manifest__.py using named bundles (web.assets_backend, web.assets_qweb, web.qunit_suite_tests). Remove the now-obsolete views/web_diagram_templates.xml. Generated by Claude Code 2.1.84 model claude-sonnet-4-6 Co-Authored-By: Mathieu Benoit <mathben@technolibre.ca>
In Odoo 15, NameManager.__init__ no longer accepts a validate flag, postprocess() was removed in favour of a stack loop inside _postprocess_view(), and check_view_fields() was renamed to check(). Replace the manual NameManager/postprocess pattern with a wrapper element passed to _postprocess_view() against the node/arrow object model, which handles the full processing pipeline correctly.

The legacy web framework (BasicView, AbstractModel, AbstractController, AbstractRenderer) was removed in Odoo 16. Rewrite all JS files as OWL components and ES6 classes. Replace web.assets_qweb (dropped in v16) by including the XML template directly in web.assets_backend. Replace the deprecated name_get() call with display_name. Bump version to 16.0.1.0.0.

Provides developer and user reference for the diagram view module: architecture overview, arch attribute reference, Odoo 16 migration notes, view switcher limitation with recommended workaround, and JSON-RPC endpoint signature.
