I'm looking at developing custom modules, including module dependency and auto-install.
Odoo is running as a service on Ubuntu 16.04.02 Server 64bit LTS.
I'm looking to understand correct uses for init, update and just loading modules.
Need to consider:
- installing a new module
- installing a new module that's a new dependency
- updating code in a single module
- updating code in a module that is a dependency of another
Hi Chris,
For the development of the custom module, you can follow this link, http://www.odoo.com/documentation/10.0/howtos/backend.html .
I dont understand what exactly you are asking.
I'm looking for the correct use cases for init and update switches, and the correct way to apply updates to a custom module. Should you use the --update <module_name>? Is this the same for updating a module that's a dependency of another module? Do you update the parent or child with --update?
Same for installing a new module, do you use --init <module_name>?
Do you need to --init <module_name> before you can run Odoo without needing --init or update, as long as it is available in the addons_path?
