An Odoo Ansible Provisioning Role

This an Ansible role for provisioning Odoo. It supports:

  • Odoo 12
  • Odoo 11
  • Odoo 10

I has not been tested yet with Odoo 13.

Requirements

A PostgreSQL(9.5+).

By now this role only supports peer authentication for PostgreSQL database access.

So you need to create a database in PostgreSQL, one user with access to that database, and one system user with same username.

For instance, you can create an odoo user in PostgreSQL with access to the created database, and an user named odoo in your system.

Role Variables

Available variables are listed below, along with default values:

  • Edition

This role supports installing Odoo following two different strategies: git (from a git repository) and tar (a package or compressed release file).

  • Force update odoo modules In order to force update an odoo module or a list of modules execute provisioning with the command
-e "odoo_role_modules_force_update=['l10n_es']"
  • Development mode

Odoo has a mode to auto-reload the server when the code changes and read the views from the code to agile the development process. Using the command line parameter --dev we can run Odoo in a development mode.

odoo_role_dev_mode: true

If this mode is active, the systemd unit is not created and you need to run the Odoo process manually. You can start it with the following command:

./odoo-bin -c /etc/odoo/odoo.conf --dev all

If you need to use the Rest Framework and want to start the server in development mode, use:

odoo_role_enable_rest_framework: true

This option add to the Odoo configuration file the section and option to development mode: https://github.com/OCA/rest-framework/tree/12.0/base_rest#configuration

If you need to use the module queue_job, use:

odoo_role_enable_queue_job: true

This option add to the Odoo configuration file the option to enable queue_job as a new thread/process: https://github.com/OCA/queue/blob/12.0/queue\_job/README.rst#id12

  • Server-wide modules

If you need to install some wide-server modules apart from db_filter and queue_job, use:

odoo_role_odoo_server_wide_modules: ['module1', 'module2']

By default, it configures as a server-wide modules web and base -as long as they are mandatory from Odoo v12- in every case and db_filter and queue_job if the corresponding variables are set to true .

  • Workers configuration

You can also define how many workers you want to use to execute the jobs:

odoo_role_channels: root:2

If you want to use the module setnry, use:

odoo_role_enable_sentry: true
odoo_role_sentry_dsn: https://your_sentry_url
  • i18n Overwrite

We can force the i18n overwrite using the next variable:

odoo_role_i18n_overwrite: true

You can define this var in the inventory or use it when execute a playbook:

ansible-playbook playbooks/provision.yml -i ../my-inventory/inventory/hosts --ask-vault-pass --limit=host -e "{odoo_role_i18n_overwrite: true}"
  • Environment variables

If you need to define a set of environment variables for your server, you can use the environment_variables dict var:

environment_variables:
  var_name1: "var_value1"
  var_name2: "var_value2"
  var_name3: "var_value3"

This option add a file in /etc/default/odoo with the vars and add to the Systemd service the EnvironmentFile attribute pointing to `/etc/default/odoo.

Role Tags

  • Using the only-modules Tag

This tag helps you install or update Odoo modules without performing a full setup. Run the playbook with the --tags option:

ansible-playbook playbook.yml --tags "only-modules"

Developer aids

You can skip this by setting the odoo_role_dev_helpers var to false.

odoo_role_dev_helpers: true

x Community Roles

Deploy

To use community roles, you need to deploy this modules in the server. This role manage the modules deployment with pip.

You can define a requirements.txt file to manage the modules and ensure the version installed:

# requirements.txt
odoo11-addon-contract==11.0.2.1.0
odoo11-addon-contract-sale-invoicing==11.0.1.0.0
odoo11-addon-contract-variable-qty-timesheet==11.0.1.0.0
odoo11-addon-contract-variable-quantity==11.0.1.2.1

The default requirements.txt file path is "{{ inventory_dir }}/../files/requirements.txt".

You can change it with the odoo_role_community_modules_requirements_path var.

This allows you to have different requirements.txt files and use them on a conditional way.

For example, you could set it {{ inventory_dir }}/../files/requirements-dev.txt and use it for dev envs redefining the variable at host_vars level.

Install

Once the modules are in the server, you need to install them in the database.

Define a odoo_role_odoo_community_modules var with the list of the modules names you want to install.

# inventory/group_vars/all.yml
odoo_role_odoo_community_modules: 'contract,contract_sale_invoicing'

Dependencies

This role is not depending on other roles (yet).

Example Playbook

- hosts: odoo_servers
  roles:
    - role: coopdevs.odoo-role
      vars:
        odoo_role_odoo_db_name: odoo-db
        odoo_role_odoo_db_admin_password: "{{ odoo_admin_password }}"
        odoo_role_download_strategy: tar
        odoo_role_odoo_version: 11.0
        odoo_role_odoo_release: 20180424

Developing & Testing

For developing and testing the role, we use devenv to manage local virtual machines in Linux environments.

You can use the .devenv file in tests folder to create a virtual machine.

devenv

Then, you can test the role with the following command:

ansible-playbook devenv.yml -i inventory

It will provision a virtual machine with postgresql and then, execute the role.
