For more information, read the documentation.

Quick start

Let's create a directory (/tmp/myaddons) containing addons a, b and c, where a depends on b and c, and b and c respectively depend on the contacts and mail core Odoo modules.

Using bash you can do it like this:

mkdir -p /tmp/myaddons/{a,b,c}
echo '{"name": "A", "version": "14.0.1.0.0", "depends": ["b", "c"], "license": "GPL-3"}' > /tmp/myaddons/a/__manifest__.py
echo '{"name": "B", "version": "14.0.1.0.0", "depends": ["crm"], "license": "Other Proprietary"}' > /tmp/myaddons/b/__manifest__.py
echo '{"name": "C", "version": "14.0.1.0.0", "depends": ["mail"], "license": "LGPL-3"}' > /tmp/myaddons/c/__manifest__.py

The manifestoo list command is useful to list all installable addons in a directory. This can be useful to install them all at once, for instance.

$ manifestoo --select-addons-dir /tmp/myaddons list
a
b
c

The list-depends command shows the direct dependencies. It is handy to pre-install a database before running tests.

$ manifestoo -d /tmp/myaddons list-depends --separator=,
crm,mail

The list-codepends command shows the transitive co-dependencies. It is handy to know which modules are impacted by changes in selected modules.

$ manifestoo --addons-path /tmp/myaddons --select a list-codepends --separator=,
b,c

You can explore the dependency tree of module a like this:

$ manifestoo --addons-path /tmp/myaddons --select a tree
a (14.0.1.0.0)
├── b (14.0.1.0.0)
│   └── contacts (14.0+c)
│       └── mail (14.0+c)
│           ├── base_setup (14.0+c)
│           │   └── web (14.0+c)
│           ├── bus (14.0+c)
│           │   └── web ⬆
│           └── web_tour (14.0+c)
│               └── web ⬆
└── c (14.0.1.0.0)
    └── mail ⬆

To check that licenses are compatibles, use the check-licenses command:

$ moo -d /tmp/myaddons check-licenses
a (GPL-3) depends on b (Other Proprietary)
