How to disable days after current date in odoo datepicker?

Question

I have a view with a date field. The user must not select a date after today. How can I disable all days after the current date in Odoo datepicker?

Answer 1

The date picker maxDate is used to set the maximum selectable date which will disable days after the current date.

I did not find a way to pass the current date dynamically from XML, so I overrode fields_view_get to change options attribute and set the maxDate to the current date.

The following example set the maxDate option to the date_invoice:

class AccountInvoice(models.Model):
    _inherit = 'account.invoice'

    @api.model
    def fields_view_get(self, view_id=None, view_type='form', toolbar=False, submenu=False):
        res = super(AccountInvoice, self).fields_view_get(view_id=view_id, view_type=view_type, toolbar=toolbar, submenu=submenu)
        if view_type == 'form':
            doc = etree.XML(res['arch'])
            for node in doc.xpath("//field[@name='date_invoice']"):
                node.set('options', "{'datepicker': {'maxDate': '%sT23:59:59'}}" % fields.Date.today().strftime(DEFAULT_SERVER_DATE_FORMAT))
            res['arch'] = etree.tostring(doc)
        return res

Edit:

You can use or inside the XPATH expression to specify the second field name.

doc.xpath("//field[@name='date_invoice' or @name='date_due']")

Edit:

Try to specify a time at 23:59:59

node.set('options', "{'datepicker': {'maxDate': '%sT23:59:59'}}" % fields.Date.today().strftime(DEFAULT_SERVER_DATE_FORMAT))
