This project provides a reproducible, script-driven setup for Odoo 18 and PostgreSQL using Docker Compose. Configuration is controlled via .env and odoo.conf.

• compose.yml – Docker Compose definition (Odoo + Postgres, persistent volumes, variable substitution).
• setup.sh – Idempotent setup script for database initialisation and service orchestration.
• .env – Environment variables (Postgres user, password, db, Odoo port).
• odoo.conf – Odoo server configuration.
• addons/ – Local Odoo addons directory (mounted in container).

• Docker
• Docker Compose plugin (docker compose)
• Bash shell

1. Edit .env Set your Postgres/Odoo details:

   POSTGRES_USER=odoo_dev
   POSTGRES_PASSWORD=yourpassword
   POSTGRES_DB=custom_odoo_db_1
   ODEV_PORT=8018
   

2. Edit odoo.conf as needed Ensure port and paths align with .env and volumes.

3. Run setup

   ./setup.sh
   

4. Access Odoo Open http://localhost:8018 (or your configured port).

• Loads .env variables
• Brings down and cleans previous Docker containers/volumes
• Starts only the database, waits for readiness
• Runs Odoo initialisation (--init=base) in an isolated step
• Brings up full stack in detached mode

• View logs: docker compose logs -f

• Stop services: docker compose down

• .env values must have no spaces before or after =.
• Only Odoo 18 and PostgreSQL 17 tested.
• All data is persisted via Docker named volumes.

• If setup fails:

  • Check .env for whitespace or missing variables.
  • Inspect logs: docker compose logs -f
  • Review output of setup.sh for early errors.

• To add Odoo modules: Mount them in addons/ and adjust the setup script’s init command if needed.
