'like':

[('input', 'like', 'open')]

Returns case sensitive (wildcards - '%open%') search.

Output: open, opensource, openerp, Odooopenerp


'not like':

[('input', 'not like', 'open')]

Output: Openerp, Opensource, Open, Odoo, odoo, OdooOpenerp


'=like':

[('name', '=like', 'open')]

Returns exact (= 'open') case sensitive search.

Output: open


'ilike':

'not ilike':

[('name', 'not ilike', 'open')]

'=ilike':

[('name', '=ilike', 'open')]

when name = 'odoo' parent_id = False

[('name', 'like', name), ('parent_id', '=?', parent_id)]

when name = 'odoo' parent_id = 'openerp'

[('name', 'like', name), ('parent_id', '=?', parent_id)]

Returns name domain result & parent_id domain result

'=?' is a short-circuit that makes the term TRUE if right is None or False, '=?' behaves like '=' in other cases


'in':

[('value1', 'in', ['value1', 'value2'])]

in operator will check the value1 is present or not in list of right term


'not in':

[('value1', 'not in', ['value2'])]

not in operator will check the value1 is not present in list of right term While these 'in' and 'not in' works with list/tuple of values, the latter '=' and '!=' works with string


'=':

when value = 10

[('value','=',value)]

term left side has 10 in db and term right our value 10 will match


'!=':

when value = 15

[('value','!=',value)]

term left side has 10 in db and term right our value 10 will not match


'child_of':

when parent_id = '1' #Agrolait 'child_of':

[('partner_id', 'child_of', parent_id)]

return left and right list of partner_id for given parent_id


'<=', '<', '>', '>='

These operators are largely used in openerp for comparing dates - [('date', '>=', date_begin), ('date', '<=', date_end)]. You can use these operators to compare int or float also.
