I am trying to create a devcontainer for the development of custom Odoo modules. This devcontainer is based on the official odoo:17 Docker image. You can see the current state of my devcontainer in my-odoo-project.zip. I would like to ask the following questions:
-
It took me a few days of effort to discover that I needed to add a new user with UID/GID 1000 in the
odoo:17image to make the devcontainer work with this image. See the creation of thedeveloperuser in.devcontainer/Dockerfile.fajnodoo17and the"remoteUser"in.devcontainer/devcontainer.json. Is creating a user with UID/GID 1000 the only solution, or is there a more straightforward alternative? -
How can I map the installed Odoo modules (applications) to my devcontainer? Where are they located in the
odoo:17image? -
How can I run
odoo-bincommand in the devcontainer (or Docker container)? -
Do you have any other recommendations on how to correctly use the
odoo:17image in a devcontainer for custom Odoo modules development?
