How to use this image
This image requires a running PostgreSQL server.
Start a PostgreSQL server
$ docker run -d -e POSTGRES_USER=odoo -e POSTGRES_PASSWORD=odoo -e POSTGRES_DB=postgres --name db postgres:13Start an Odoo instance
$ docker run -p 8069:8069 --name odoo --link db:db -t odooThe alias of the container running Postgres must be db for Odoo to be able to connect to the Postgres server.
Stop and restart an Odoo instance
$ docker stop odoo
$ docker start -a odooUse named volumes to preserve data
When the Odoo container is created like described above, the odoo filestore is created inside the container. If the container is removed, the filestore is lost. The preferred way to prevent that is by using a Docker named volume.
$ docker run -v odoo-data:/var/lib/odoo -d -p 8069:8069 --name odoo --link db:db -t odooWith the above command, the volume named odoo-data will persist even if the container is removed and can be re-used by issuing the same command.
The path /var/lib/odoo used as the mount point of the volume must match the odoo data_dir in the config file or as CLI parameters.
Note that the same principle applies to the Postgresql container and a named volume can be used to preserve the database when the container is removed. So the database container could be started like this (before the odoo container):
$ docker run -d -v odoo-db:/var/lib/postgresql/data -e POSTGRES_USER=odoo -e POSTGRES_PASSWORD=odoo -e POSTGRES_DB=postgres --name db postgres:13Stop and restart a PostgreSQL server
When a PostgreSQL server is restarted, the Odoo instances linked to that server must be restarted as well because the server address has changed and the link is thus broken.
Restarting a PostgreSQL server does not affect the created databases.
Run Odoo with a custom configuration
The default configuration file for the server (located at /etc/odoo/odoo.conf) can be overriden at startup using volumes. Suppose you have a custom configuration at /path/to/config/odoo.conf, then
$ docker run -v /path/to/config:/etc/odoo -p 8069:8069 --name odoo --link db:db -t odooPlease use this configuration template to write your custom configuration as we already set some arguments for running Odoo inside a Docker container.
You can also directly specify Odoo arguments inline. Those arguments must be given after the keyword -- in the command-line, as follows
$ docker run -p 8069:8069 --name odoo --link db:db -t odoo -- --db-filter=odoo_db_.*Mount custom addons
You can mount your own Odoo addons within the Odoo container, at /mnt/extra-addons
$ docker run -v /path/to/addons:/mnt/extra-addons -p 8069:8069 --name odoo --link db:db -t odooRun multiple Odoo instances
$ docker run -p 8070:8069 --name odoo2 --link db:db -t odoo
$ docker run -p 8071:8069 --name odoo3 --link db:db -t odooPlease note that for plain use of mails and reports functionalities, when the host and container ports differ (e.g. 8070 and 8069), one has to set, in Odoo, Settings->Parameters->System Parameters (requires technical features), web.base.url to the container port (e.g. 127.0.0.1:8069).
Environment Variables
Tweak these environment variables to easily connect to a postgres server:
HOST: The address of the postgres server. If you used a postgres container, set to the name of the container. Defaults todb.PORT: The port the postgres server is listening to. Defaults to5432.USER: The postgres role with which Odoo will connect. If you used a postgres container, set to the same value asPOSTGRES_USER. Defaults toodoo.PASSWORD: The password of the postgres role with which Odoo will connect. If you used a postgres container, set to the same value asPOSTGRES_PASSWORD. Defaults toodoo.
Docker Compose examples
The simplest docker-compose.yml file would be:
version: '3.1'
services:
web:
image: odoo:14.0
depends_on:
- db
ports:
- "8069:8069"
db:
image: postgres:13
environment:
- POSTGRES_DB=postgres
- POSTGRES_PASSWORD=odoo
- POSTGRES_USER=odooIf the default postgres credentials does not suit you, tweak the environment variables:
version: '3.1'
services:
web:
image: odoo:14.0
depends_on:
- mydb
ports:
- "8069:8069"
environment:
- HOST=mydb
- USER=odoo
- PASSWORD=myodoo
mydb:
image: postgres:13
environment:
- POSTGRES_DB=postgres
- POSTGRES_PASSWORD=myodoo
- POSTGRES_USER=odooHere's a last example showing you how to
- mount custom addons located in
./addons - use a custom configuration file located in
.config/odoo.conf - use named volumes for the Odoo and postgres data dir
- use a
secretsfile namedodoo_pg_passthat contains the postgreql password shared by both services
version: '3.1'
services:
web:

file: odoo_pg_passTo start your Odoo instance, go in the directory of the docker-compose.yml file you created from the previous examples and type:
docker-compose up -dHow to upgrade this image
Odoo images are updated on a regular basis to make them use recent releases (a new release of each version of Odoo is built every night). Please be aware that what follows is about upgrading from an old release to the latest one provided of the same major version, as upgrading from a major version to another is a much more complex process requiring elaborated migration scripts (see Odoo Enterprise Upgrade page or this community project which aims to write those scripts).
Suppose you created a database from an Odoo instance named old-odoo, and you want to access this database from a new Odoo instance named new-odoo, e.g. because you've just downloaded a newer Odoo image.
By default, Odoo 14.0 uses a filestore (located at /var/lib/odoo/filestore/) for attachments. You should restore this filestore in your new Odoo instance by running
$ docker run --volumes-from old-odoo -p 8070:8069 --name new-odoo --link db:db -t odooYou can also simply prevent Odoo from using the filestore by setting the system parameter ir_attachment.location to db-storage in Settings->Parameters->System Parameters (requires technical features).
