how to install odoo on linux

odoo.sh(w)

Step 1: Create Odoo User

sudo useradd -m -d /opt/odoo -U -r -s /bin/bash odoo

###Install PostgreSQL
sudo apt install postgresql postgresql-contrib
sudo su - postgres -c "createuser -s odoouser"
sudo su - postgres -c "createdb odoodb"
sudo -u postgres psql
grant all privileges on database odoodb to odoouser;
\q

####Installing Wkhtmltopdf 
wge https://github.com/wkhtmltopdf/wkhtmltopdf/releases/download/0.12.5/wkhtmltox_0.12.5-1.bionic_amd64.deb
sudo apt install ./wkhtmltox_0.12.5-1.bionic_amd64.deb

#####$$The first thing you’ll want to do is switch to the Odoo user account we created above by running the commands below:
sudo su - odoo

git clone https://www.github.com/odoo/odoo --branch 13.0 /opt/odoo/odoo13
cd /opt/odoo
python3 -m venv odoo-venv
source odoo-venv/bin/activate
pip3 install wheel
pip3 install -r odoo13/requirements.txt
deactivate

mkdir /opt/odoo/odoo13-custom-addons
exit
sudo nano /etc/odoo13.conf

[options]
; This is the password that allows database operations:
admin_passwd = type_new_password_here
db_host = False
db_port = False
db_user = odoouser
db_password = 123
addons_path = /opt/odoo/odoo13/addons,/opt/odoo/odoo13-custom-addons

Save your changes and exit



Step 6: Creating a Systemd Unit File

At this point, all should be set.. What you need to do now is to create a systemd unit file to control startup, restart and shutdown Odoo services…

sudo nano /etc/systemd/system/odoo13.service

Then copy and pastes the lines below into the file, save and exit

[Unit]
Description=Odoo
Requires=postgresql.service
After=network.target postgresql.service

[Service]
Type=simple
SyslogIdentifier=odoo
PermissionsStartOnly=true
User=odoo
Group=odoo
ExecStart=/opt/odoo/odoo-venv/bin/python3 /opt/odoo/odoo13/odoo-bin -c /etc/odoo13.conf
StandardOutput=journal+console

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target

sudo systemctl daemon-reload
sudo systemctl enable --now odoo13

sudo systemctl status odoo13
sudo journalctl -u odoo13
