In the previous examples, we have been extending the Odoo framework to include additional fields in the models and functionality in our views. Odoo also provides a powerful framework for creating your own websites and web services that can integrate easily with Odoo applications.
Let's see how we can create a simple web service that displays the rush orders on a page.

Create the controller file using the following command in your terminal window:
sudo nano controller.py

Place this code in the controller.py file:
from odoo import http
class Web_RushOrders(http.Controller):
@http.route('/orders/rush/', auth='public')
Def index(self, **kw):
