Hi, 

Is it possible in Odoo to export a list of records from a module and then import them from the data directory on when the module loads? So for example if you export a csv file, can you put that csv into the data directory of a module to automatically load those records when the module is installed? The use case is that we have several custom records that we want loaded whenever the database is installed so that we don't have to manually recreate them.

You can follow these steps:

Step 1: Put that csv file into the data folder of that module.

Step 2: Put the path to that csv file into the data command block of the __manifest__.py file of that module. For example:

'data': [
        'security/group.xml',
        'security/ir.model.access.csv',
        'security/security.xml',
        'data/res.country.state.csv',
        'data/account.account.type.csv',
        'data/account.group.csv'
    ],
    'installable': True,

Please contact me via email anhtuan.acoi@gmail.com if you need further assistance.
