Odoo and Lokavaluto addons installation

This document details the installation of Odoo 12.0 plus the addons created by Lokavaluto available here: https://github.com/Lokavaluto/lokavaluto-addons. In this installation, we use the branch 12.0-Exchange_counters_2. To use anther branch, just change the command in the MakeFile.

Make file
Activate the developer mode
Install the addons

Make file

The Makefile is used to download Odoo 12.0 and all of its requirements. To use it, the first step is to install make using sudo apt install make. It also requires bash sudo apt install bash.

Makefile content

The same Makefile is used to setup the environnement and to run. For now you have to chose the version of Odoo carefully before launching the installation. Once installed, you can not change easily Odoo's version. So if you do not want to use the version 12.0 as Lokavaluto does, change it in the Makefile just after the comment Change Odoo's version here.

For Lokavaluto's addons, you can chose the branch in the Makefile after the comment Change Addons' version here. If you wan to change the branch after the installation, you can rerun the installation or switch branch in the git folder using git checkout branch_name

Installation

Create the Makefile where you want to install the environnement. After the installation, 2 folders are created lokavaluto-addons and odoo containing respectively Lokavaluto's addons and Odoo's source files. The script installs the latest version of Python3, pip3, and postgresql. It also downloads all the dependencies listed here: https://www.odoo.com/documentation/12.0/setup/install.html#id7.

To install all the tools needed for the development run sudo make prepare (needs privileges). To start the installation, just run make install.

Run Odoo

To launch Odoo, run sudo make run. This calls a python command inside odoo's folder python3 odoo-bin --addons-path=addons,../lokavaluto-addons -d mydb. The arguments --addons-path adds the defaults addons folder from Odoo 12.0 and the Lokavakuto's addons downloaded during the installation.

Everything should be running without errors nor warnings.

Firefox should start and open the web interface. The WEB interface should be available at http://localhost:8069. You can login using the user admin and the password admin.
