Odoo 10: Change datetime picker options for a field

This is with Odoo 10 and the default bootstrap-datetimepicker.

I have a field in my view that has a "Start of event" datetime. I'd like the date picker that shows up to work in 5 minute intervals (minuteStepping: 5) and to show the time picker along with the date picker (sideBySide: true).

I've confirmed that this works as I want it to by editing addons/web/static/src/js/widgets/date_picker.js manually.

However, I'd prefer to just give the two options I want to change as a parameter to my <field ..> definition under my <form> tag in the view XML. The source Widget accepts an options parameter in its init method that it extends to end up with the final options object, but I've been unable to insert my configuration options into this object.

I tried giving it as <field ... options="{...}" and as .. t-field-options='..', but I'm guessing the latter won't work since I'm not in a qweb context in my view, and the first one isn't read by widgets.

Is there any way I can do this without creating a new widget? (and hopefully without subclassing or extending the existing widget, but keep it as a pure view configuration option instead)?

You can see a great example in this module. https://github.com/OCA/web/tree/10.0/web_m2x_options

In the file. static/src/js/form.js.

The module has overridden the fields Many2one to add different options can be set in the XML declaration of field.

Example : <field name="partner_id" options="{'search_more':true}" />

In this example. The search more button is visible in all cases.

You can use the logic of this module as a base of your widget extension.

Installation:

In a First time, you must download the Github repository.

https://github.com/jo541/web

Select the branch 10.0. In the repository, there are a named module "web_widget_datepicker_options". This module gives you the possibility to specify any options as you want for a specific field.

After download and install the module on Odoo. You needing to reload the cache of your browser to be sure.

Modification:

Now you can modify your form view. For an example, I will use the view form sale.order.

In the form view sale.order, you have a field "date_order". If you would like to have the time step 5 by 5. 

<field name="date_order" options="{'datepicker':{'minuteStepping': 5}}" attrs="{'invisible': [('state', 'in', ['sale', 'done', 'cancel'])]}"/>

All the options in the dict of the key datepicker will be adding to the option of the bootstrap datepicker.
