Odoo - distributed business apps

[msbt]

@nj thanks for your packaging efforts! I just tried to run odoo and it wouldn't start, it was always looping the First run. Initializing DB... bit. I've jumped in the terminal and ran the cmds manually and eventually figured out, that the /app/data needed chowning to the cloudron-user before it worked - which it now does! So all we need to do is add /app/data/ to https://github.com/njsubedi/cloudron-odoo/blob/main/start.sh#L17

@msbt Odoo Community edition hosted on Cloudron would be a massive value add to the Cloudron portfolio. I totally recommend using Cloudron in a business to structure and improve processes. Unless your company has the budget to run Salesforce, or Service Now to do the same.

@makemrproper There is a large and active development community for Odoo. I think it would be quite excited to hear about a Beta of Odoo on Cloudron and they could contribute quite a lot. Hopefully, the other great applications available on Cloudron would catch their notice too, and people would join us.

@nebulon
I hope we are still making progress on supporting Odoo Community Edition on Cloudron.

I think Cloudron users are aware of how powerful a tool Cloudron is. Odoo is a bit like Cloudron, in that it offers one click deployment of modules.

Unlike Cloudron, all the modules on Odoo are built to be interoperable. They push data to each other as needed, populating fields and helping you with auto-fill and reducing laboriousness of many manual tasks.

If you are familiar with Nextcloud (which is of course on Cloudron) then you will be right at home with Odoo.

@LoudLemur I too hope to see odoo in Cloudron soon. A lot of things would be simplified for us.
