anybox.recipe.openerp 1.8.4

A buildout recipe to install and configure OpenERP

This recipe for Buildout is a fully featured tool allowing you to define and deploy quickly OpenERP installations of any kinds, ranging from development setups to fully automated production deployments or continuous integration.

Some of its main features include:

• uniformity across OpenERP versions (from 5.0 onwards)

• installation of OpenERP server and, if meaningful, GTK and web clients.

• retrieval of main software and addons from various sources, including the major version control systems

• ability to pinpoint everything for replayability

• management of OpenERP configuration

• dedicated scripts creation for easy integration of external tools, such as test launchers

• packaging: creation of self-contained equivalents for easy deployment in tightly controlled hosting environmenents.

All these to be considered together with zc.buildout‘s general properties, such as an extensible configuration file format for easy variation or separation of concerns, native Python distributions installation, and of course the huge ecosystem of other recipes.

The full documentation is written with Sphinx, built continuously and uploaded to http://docs.anybox.fr/anybox.recipe.openerp by Anybox’ public buildbot. The Sphinx source tree is to be found under the doc subdirectory of this project.

The latest released version of the documentation is uploaded to PyPI alongside with the package. See PyPIDocumentationHosting for details.

1.7.3 (2013-10-17)

• Fixed the licence in setup.py and hence on PyPI page. The ZPL indicated was contradictory with what is stated on Launchpad’s project page, and plain non applicable, since the recipe does import from OpenERP.

• launchpad #1194887: ‘clean’ option for git and hg now use the native solution

1.6.3 (2013-06-23)

• launchpad #1192973: ‘clean’ option now based on bzr clean-tree (more powerful, and avoids in particular removing empty dirs, which is a local modification that prevents later on freezing)

1.6.2 (2013-06-15)

• launchpad #1189402: order of the addons_path is now deterministic

• launchpad #1189162: registry helping avoid double evaluaton of custom addons models (helps launching unittest2 tests directly)

• support for bzr stacked branches for the server branch in the same way as was already done in addons.

• launchpad #1152808: corrected parsing of options.log_handler in gunicorn setups (introduced a constant to treat comma-separated list options in gunicorn conf)
