bl-odoo 0.3.6

A command-line tool for managing Odoo dependencies.

bl

Why BL

Because ak is a bit slow and I was tired of waiting around

Install

pipx install bl-odoo

Usage

For all those command bl will try to look in the current directory. If it does find the spec file it will try to look in the child odoo directory. (i.e. you can launch bl in the root of you project)

Build

bl build -c <path_to_spec.yaml> -z <path_to_frozen.yaml> -j <concurrency>

What does it do

It does what ak build does

Params

• path_to_spec.yaml should be the path to your spec (default: spec.yaml)
• path_to_frozen.yaml should be the path to your spec (default: frozen.yaml)
• concurrency number of module clone simultaneously (default: 28)

How it looks

Freeze

bl freeze -c <path_to_spec.yaml> -z <path_to_frozen.yaml> -j <concurrency>

What does it do

It does what ak freeze does

Params

• path_to_spec.yaml should be the path to your spec (default: spec.yaml)
• path_to_frozen.yaml should be the path to your spec (default: frozen.yaml)
• concurrency number of module clone simultaneously (default: 28)

Clean

bl clean -c <path_to_spec.yaml>

What does it do

It asks you if you want to delete external-src and src and then deletes it

Params

• path_to_spec.yaml should be the path to your spec (default: spec.yaml)

Odoo is taking a really long time to clone

Yes !

You can add a locales entry to your odoo repo in spec.yaml like so:

odoo:
  modules:
    - account
    ...
  remotes:
    odoo: https://github.com/odoo/odoo
  merges:
    - odoo 14.0
  locales:
    - fr
    - en

It will only download the french and english translation instead of all of them

• without locales: 849MB and 40 seconds fresh build
• with locales fr, en: 169MB and 27 seconds fresh build

⚠️ WARNING: you must list all the odoo modules you need if you use the locales property

I have warnings about patch globs

There is a new property to handle "git am <patch_glob>"

Before:

folder_name:
  modules:
    ...
  remotes:
    ...
  merges:
    ...
  shell_command_after:
    - git am ../../patches/patch_folder/*

After:

folder_name:
  modules:
    ...
  remotes:
    ...
  merges:
    ...
  patch_globs:
    - ../../patches/patch_folder/*
