Which main steps to type when launching doodba template?

[LudLaf]

Hello there,

After typing the following in a terminal:

$ copier copy gh:Tecnativa/doodba-copier-template docker-odoo-base-v12--10805

and following with:

$ cd docker-odoo-base-v12--10805

$ ln -s devel.yaml docker-compose.yml # here this message shows up -> ln: failed to create symbolic link 'docker-compose.yml': File exists

$ chown -R $USER:1000 odoo/auto

$ chmod -R ug+rwx odoo/auto

$ export UID GID="$(id -g $USER)" UMASK="$(umask)"

$ docker-compose -f setup-devel.yaml run --rm odoo # and this other message here -> WARNING: Image for service odoo was built because it did not already exist. To rebuild this image you must use docker-compose build or docker-compose up --build

$ docker-compose build

• this line was missing from my original message: $ docker-compose up

CTRL+C

$ docker-compose down -v

$ docker-compose run odoo -i base --stop-after-init

$ docker-compose up

In the end I manage to make it work. Then, in a browser I type: "localhost:12069"

It seems to work properly, but I wonder if there's anything missing, or probably there are some lines that shouldnt' be typed.

Any ideas to clarify and make it work better?

Hi @LudLaf

Some of the steps you mention seem to be a part of the steps that were performed using the “old” Doodba Scaffolding. As explained here, that scaffolding method has been deprecated, and we are now maintaining https://github.com/Tecnativa/doodba-copier-template.

In the README in that project and in https://github.com/Tecnativa/doodba-copier-template/blob/main/docs/daily-usage.md, you should find all the information you need 😃

As you can see from there, a lot of the commands you mention (like symlinks and chmods) are no longer needed, as they are performed as part of the invoke helper tasks, and in a slightly different way to avoid the errors.

If you still find some information missing, please report back here 🙂

Hi @joao-p-marques

Thanks for your quick response. I'll check the info, and if I get stuck again, I'll write here.

Cheers,
