Duplicated functionality

[etobella]

I found that there are 2 modules in the repository that provide the same functionality:

document_page_access_group: Since v14.0. Done by @manuelregidor @sygel-technology
document_page_group: Since v11.0 Done by @etobella @dixmit

We should need to merge them on a single one. I don't care if we take document_page_access_group because it has some extra functionalities.

My proposal, would be to do the merge on v18 and keep all the authors

I understand the confusion with both module and personally I think they should be merged in v18 in 1 or even in document_page (with different options at configuration level).

I think it is interesting to clarify how each module works.

document_page_group
"Visible to” is set (direct_group_ids) which allows to select groups (sales user for example). The group_ids field is also set with a compute.

A user will have access to a page if he/she does NOT have any group set and/or is part of one of them.

document_page_access_group
"Groups” (groups_id) and "Users" (user_ids) are set, neither of them is compute.
It is possible to set either Groups or Users (not both) on a page.

Several permissions are created:

• Document Page Access: The user will be able to view pages that do not have “Groups” and “Users” or if the user is one of the indicated or if the user is part of one of the indicated groups.
• Document Page Full Access: Has access to all pages.
