What is Odoo?

Odoo is a suite of web based open source business apps. Odoo Apps can be used as stand-alone applications, but they also integrate seamlessly so you get a full-featured Open Source ERP when you install several Apps.

Why use Bitnami Images?

Bitnami closely tracks upstream source changes and promptly publishes new versions of this image using our automated systems.
With Bitnami images the latest bug fixes and features are available as soon as possible.
Bitnami containers, virtual machines and cloud images use the same components and configuration approach - making it easy to switch between formats based on your project needs.
Bitnami images are built on CircleCI and automatically pushed to the Docker Hub.
All our images are based on minideb a minimalist Debian based container image which gives you a small base container image and the familiarity of a leading linux distribution.

Prerequisites

To run this application you need Docker Engine 1.10.0. Docker Compose is recomended with a version 1.6.0 or later.

How to use this image

Run Odoo with a Database Container

Running Odoo with a database server is the recommended way. You can either use docker-compose or run the containers manually.

Run the application using Docker Compose

This is the recommended way to run Odoo. You can use the following docker compose template:

version: '2'

services:
  postgresql:
    image: 'bitnami/postgresql:latest'
    volumes:
      - 'postgresql_data:/bitnami'
  odoo:
    image: 'bitnami/odoo:latest'
    ports:
      - '80:8069'
      - '443:8071'
    volumes:
      - 'odoo_data:/bitnami'
    depends_on:
      - postgresql
volumes:
  postgresql_data:
    driver: local
  odoo_data:
    driver: local

Run the application manually

If you want to run the application manually instead of using docker-compose, these are the basic steps you need to run:

Create a new network for the application and the database:

$ docker network create odoo-tier

Start a PostgreSQL database in the network generated:

$ docker run -d --name postgresql --net odoo-tier bitnami/postgresql:latest

Note: You need to give the container a name in order to Odoo to resolve the host

Run the Odoo container:

$ docker run -d -p 80:8069 -p 443:8071 --name odoo --net odoo-tier bitnami/odoo:latest

Then you can access your application at http://your-ip/

Persisting your application

If you remove the container all your data and configurations will be lost, and the next time you run the image the application will be reinitialized. To avoid this loss of data, you should mount a volume that will persist even after the container is removed.

For persistence you should mount a volume at the /bitnami path. Additionally you should mount a volume for persistence of the PostgreSQL data.

The above examples define docker volumes namely postgresql_data and odoo_data. The Odoo application state will persist as long as these volumes are not removed.

To avoid inadvertent removal of these volumes you can mount host directories as data volumes. Alternatively you can make use of volume plugins to host the volume data.

Mount host directories as data volumes with Docker Compose

This requires a minor change to the docker-compose.yml template previously shown:

version: '2'

  postgresql:
    image: 'bitnami/postgresql:latest'
    volumes:
      - '/path/to/postgresql_persistence:/bitnami'
  odoo:
    image: bitnami/odoo:latest
    depends_on:
      - postgresql
    ports:
      - 80:8069
      - 443:8071
    volumes:
      - '/path/to/odoo-persistence:/bitnami'

Mount host directories as data volumes using the Docker command line

In this case you need to specify the directories to mount on the run command. The process is the same than the one previously shown:

Create a network (if it does not exist):

$ docker network create odoo-tier

Create a PostgreSQL container with host volume:

$ docker run -d --name postgresql \
  --net odoo-tier \
  --volume /path/to/postgresql-persistence:/bitnami \
  bitnami/postgresql:latest

Note: You need to give the container a name in order to Odoo to resolve the host

Create the Odoo container with hist volumes:

$ docker run -d --name odoo -p 80:8069 -p 443:8071 \
  --net odoo-tier \
  --volume /path/to/odoo-persistence:/bitnami \
  bitnami/odoo:latest

Upgrade this application

Bitnami provides up-to-date versions of PostgreSQL and Odoo, including security patches, soon after they are made upstream. We recommend that you follow these steps to upgrade your container. We will cover here the upgrade of the Odoo container. For the PostgreSQL upgrade see https://github.com/bitnami/bitnami-docker-postgresql/blob/master/README.md#upgrade-this-image

Get the updated images:

$ docker pull bitnami/odoo:latest

Stop your container

For docker-compose: $ docker-compose stop odoo
For manual execution: $ docker stop odoo

Take a snapshot of the application state

$ rsync -a /path/to/odoo-persistence /path/to/odoo-persistence.bkp.$(date +%Y%m%d-%H.%M.%S)

Additionally, snapshot the PostgreSQL data

You can use these snapshots to restore the application state should the upgrade fail.

Remove the stopped container

For docker-compose: $ docker-compose rm odoo
For manual execution: $ docker rm odoo

Run the new image

For docker-compose: $ docker-compose start odoo
For manual execution (mount the directories if needed): docker run --name odoo bitnami/odoo:latest

Configuration

Environment variables

When you start the odoo image, you can adjust the configuration of the instance by passing one or more environment variables either on the docker-compose file or on the docker run command line. If you want to add a new environment variable:

For docker-compose add the variable name and value under the application section:

odoo:
  image: bitnami/odoo:latest
  ports:
    - 80:8069
    - 443:8071
  environment:
    - ODOO_PASSWORD=my_password
  volumes:
    - 'odoo_data:/bitnami'
  depends_on:
    - postgresql

For manual execution add a -e option with each variable and value:

$ docker run -d -p 80:8069 -p 443:8071 --name odoo \
  --env ODOO_PASSWORD=my_password  \
  --net odoo-tier \
  --volume /path/to/odoo-persistence:/bitnami \
  bitnami/odoo:latest

Available variables:

ODOO_EMAIL: Odoo application email. Default: user@example.com
ODOO_PASSWORD: Odoo application password. Default: bitnami
POSTGRESQL_USER: Root user for the PostgreSQL database. Default: postgres
POSTGRESQL_PASSWORD: Root password for the PostgreSQL.
POSTGRESQL_HOST: Hostname for PostgreSQL server. Default: postgresql
POSTGRESQL_PORT_NUMBER: Port used by PostgreSQL server. Default: 5432

SMTP Configuration

To configure Odoo to send email using SMTP you can set the following environment variables:

SMTP_HOST: SMTP host.
SMTP_PORT: SMTP port.
SMTP_USER: SMTP account user.
SMTP_PASSWORD: SMTP account password.
SMTP_TLS: Use TLS encription with SMTP. Default true

This would be an example of SMTP configuration using a GMail account:

docker-compose:

  odoo:
    image: bitnami/odoo:latest
    ports:
      - 80:8069
      - 443:8071
    environment:
      - SMTP_HOST=smtp.gmail.com
      - SMTP_PORT=587
      - SMTP_USER=your_email@gmail.com
      - SMTP_PASSWORD=your_password

For manual execution:

$ docker run -d -p 80:8069 -p 443:8071 --name odoo \
  --env SMTP_HOST=smtp.gmail.com \
  --env SMTP_PORT=587 \
  --env SMTP_USER=your_email@gmail.com \
  --env SMTP_PASSWORD=your_password \
  --net odoo-tier \
  --volume /path/to/odoo-persistence:/bitnami \
  bitnami/odoo:latest
