A open series on Business specific Applications
A show about downloading and installing extra Odoo addons.
There are 18780 lines of Python code in the core of Odoo (18)
The standard set of available apps are usually installed in /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/odoo/addons/
Take note of the Linux File Hierarchy Standard
So install your own stuff somewhere under /usr/local.
For this show we standardize on /usr/local/lib/python3/odoo/addons
But some use /opt/odoo.
Edit /etc/odoo/odoo.conf and add:
addons_path = /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/odoo/addons, /usr/local/lib/python3/odoo/addons
Find extra apps for example in: https://apps.odoo-community.org/shop
First example:
"Web Responsive", "https://github.com/OCA/web/", subdirectory "web_responsive"
Next go to:
Menu->Settings->Enable developermode->Goto Apps app->Update list of apps: to scan for all apps
Install the app you just installed in /usr/local/lib/python3/odoo/addons
Some more apps:
"Web No Bubble" ,"https://github.com/OCA/web/", subdirectory "web_no_bubble"
"Remove odoo.com Bindings", "https://github.com/OCA/server-brand/", subdirectory "disable_odoo_online"
