Odoo is an open source ERP and CRM platform, formerly known as OpenERP, that can connect a wide variety of business operations such as sales, supply chain, finance, and project management.

Overview of Odoo

$ helm repo add bitnami https://charts.bitnami.com/bitnami
$ helm install my-release bitnami/odoo

This chart bootstraps a Odoo deployment on a Kubernetes cluster using the Helm package manager.

Odoo Apps can be used as stand-alone applications, but they also integrate seamlessly so you get a full-featured Open Source ERP when you install several Apps.

Bitnami charts can be used with Kubeapps for deployment and management of Helm Charts in clusters.

• Kubernetes 1.19+
• Helm 3.2.0+
• PV provisioner support in the underlying infrastructure
• ReadWriteMany volumes for deployment scaling

To install the chart with the release name my-release:

$ helm install my-release bitnami/odoo

The command deploys Odoo on the Kubernetes cluster in the default configuration. The Parameters section lists the parameters that can be configured during installation.

Tip: List all releases using helm list

To uninstall/delete the my-release deployment:

$ helm delete my-release

The command removes all the Kubernetes components associated with the chart and deletes the release.

If persistence.resourcePolicy is set to keep, you should manually delete the PVCs.

The above parameters map to the env variables defined in bitnami/odoo. For more information please refer to the bitnami/odoo image documentation.

Specify each parameter using the --set key=value[,key=value] argument to helm install. For example,

$ helm install my-release \
  --set odooPassword=password,postgresql.postgresPassword=secretpassword \
    bitnami/odoo

The above command sets the Odoo administrator account password to password and the PostgreSQL postgres user password to secretpassword.

NOTE: Once this chart is deployed, it is not possible to change the application's access credentials, such as usernames or passwords, using Helm. To change these application credentials after deployment, delete any persistent volumes (PVs) used by the chart and re-deploy it, or use the application's built-in administrative tools if available.

Alternatively, a YAML file that specifies the values for the above parameters can be provided while installing the chart. For example,

$ helm install my-release -f values.yaml bitnami/odoo

Tip: You can use the default values.yaml

It is strongly recommended to use immutable tags in a production environment. This ensures your deployment does not change automatically if the same tag is updated with a different image.

Bitnami will release a new chart updating its containers if a new version of the main container, significant changes, or critical vulnerabilities exist.

To modify the application version used in this chart, specify a different version of the image using the image.tag parameter and/or a different repository using the image.repository parameter. Refer to the chart documentation for more information on these parameters and how to use them with images from a private registry.

Sometimes you may want to have Odoo connect to an external database rather than installing one inside your cluster, e.g. to use a managed database service, or use a single database server for all your applications. To do this, the chart allows you to specify credentials for an external database under the externalDatabase parameter. You should also disable the PostgreSQL installation with the postgresql.enabled option. For example using the following parameters:

postgresql.enabled=false
externalDatabase.host=myexternalhost
externalDatabase.user=myuser
externalDatabase.password=mypassword
externalDatabase.port=3306

Note also if you disable PostgreSQL per above you MUST supply values for the externalDatabase connection.

If you have a need for additional containers to run within the same pod as Odoo, you can do so via the sidecars config parameter. Simply define your container according to the Kubernetes container spec.

sidecars:
  - name: your-image-name
    image: your-image
    imagePullPolicy: Always
    ports:
      - name: portname
       containerPort: 1234

Similarly, you can add extra init containers using the initContainers parameter.

This chart allows you to set your custom affinity using the affinity parameter. Find more information about Pod's affinity in the kubernetes documentation.

As an alternative, you can use of the preset configurations for pod affinity, pod anti-affinity, and node affinity available at the bitnami/common chart. To do so, set the podAffinityPreset, podAntiAffinityPreset, or nodeAffinityPreset parameters.

The Bitnami Odoo image stores the Odoo data and configurations at the /bitnami/odoo path of the container.

Persistent Volume Claims are used to keep the data across deployments. This is known to work in GCE, AWS, and minikube. See the Parameters section to configure the PVC or to disable persistence.

Refer to the chart documentation for more information about how to upgrade from previous releases.

Please, note this Helm chart is a community-supported solution. This means that the Bitnami team is not actively working on new features/improvements nor providing support through GitHub Issues for this Helm chart. Any new issue will stay open for 20 days to allow the community to contribute, after 15 days without activity the issue will be marked as stale being closed after 5 days.

The Bitnami team will review any PR that is created, feel free to create a PR if you find any issue or want to implement a new feature.

New versions are not going to be affected. Once a new version is released in the upstream project, the Bitnami container image will be updated to use the latest version.
