Odoo Resource Assessor

This tool calculates the Odoo configuration based on the available system resources. It is designed to automate the configuration process by calculating the optimal number of worker processes and memory limits for Odoo based on the server's specifications.

Output example

$ resource-assessor

Enter the number of CPUs: 4
Enter the amount of RAM in GB: 34
Do you want to customize the time limits? (current: cpu=600, real=1200) [y/N]: N

limit_time_real = 1200

; Customize the Odoo memory limits
limit_memory_hard = 5637144576

; End of configuration generated by resource-assessor

Installation

To install the Odoo Resource Assessor, run the following command:

pip install odoo-resource-assessor

Usage

Interactive mode

To assess the resources and get a recommended Odoo configuration, simply execute the tool. It will prompt you to enter the number of CPUs and the amount of RAM in GB:

resource-assessor

Automatic mode

For assessing the current system automatically, use the --self flag to have the script determine the available system resources:

resource-assessor --self

In --self mode, you can pass extra flags to output specific values:

$ resource-assessor --self --workers

9

Valid flags are --workers, --soft, and --hard.

Output to file

To write the entire generated configuration to a file, use the --output flag:

resource-assessor --output odoo.conf

Help

You can check all the features by passing --help flag:

$ resource-assessor --help

usage: resource-assessor [options]

A tool to calculate Odoo configuration based on system resources.

Default values can be set using environment variables:
- LIMIT_TIME_CPU_DEFAULT
- LIMIT_TIME_REAL_DEFAULT
- CRON_WORKERS_DEFAULT


optional arguments:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  --cpu CPU             Number of CPUs (will prompt if not provided)
  --ram RAM             Amount of RAM in GB (will prompt if not provided)
  -o OUTPUT, --output OUTPUT
                        Output file path to write the configuration
  -s, --self            Run using the current machine's resources without prompting
  -w, --workers         Output the number of workers based on current machine's CPUs (only with --self)
  --soft                Output the calculated limit_memory_soft value (only with --self)
  --hard                Output the calculated limit_memory_hard value (only with --self)
  --limit-time-cpu <seconds>
                        Limit time CPU (default: 600)
  --limit-time-real <seconds>
                        Limit time real (default: 1200)
  --version             show program's version number and exit

Example: resource-assessor --self

Features

• Automatically calculates the number of HTTP workers for Odoo.
• Determines optimal memory limits based on system's RAM.
• Can use the current system's resources with the --self flag for convenience.
• Can output the calculated values for workers and memory limits.
