===============================
Command-line interface: odoo.py
===============================
.. _reference/cmdline/server:
Running the server
==================
.. program:: odoo.py
.. option:: -d <database>, --database <database>
database used when installing or updating modules.
.. option:: -i <modules>, --init <modules>
comma-separated list of modules to install before running the server
(requires :option:`-d`).
.. option:: -u <modules>, --update <modules>
comma-separated list of modules to update before running the server
(requires :option:`-d`).
.. option:: --addons-path <directories>
comma-separated list of directories in which modules are stored. These
directories are scanned for modules (nb: when and why?)
.. option:: --workers <count>
if ``count`` is not 0 (the default), enables multiprocessing and sets up
the specified number of HTTP workers (sub-processes processing HTTP
and RPC requests).
.. note:: multiprocessing mode is only available on Unix-based systems
A number of options allow limiting and recyling workers:
.. option:: --limit-request <limit>
Number of requests a worker will process before being recycled and
restarted.
Defaults to 8196.
.. option:: --limit-memory-soft <limit>
Maximum allowed virtual memory per worker. If the limit is exceeded,
the worker is killed and recycled at the end of the current request.
Defaults to 640MB.
.. option:: --limit-memory-hard <limit>
Hard limit on virtual memory, any worker exceeding the limit will be
immediately killed without waiting for the end of the current request
processing.
Defaults to 768MB.
.. option:: --limit-time-cpu <limit>
Prevents the worker from using more than <limit> CPU seconds for each
request. If the limit is exceeded, the worker is killed.
Defaults to 60.
.. option:: --limit-time-real <limit>
Prevents the worker from taking longer than <limit> seconds to process
a request. If the limit is exceeded, the worker is killed.
Differs from :option:`--limit-time-cpu` in that this is a "wall time"
limit including e.g. SQL queries.
Defaults to 120.
.. option:: --max-cron-threads <count>
number of workers dedicated to cron jobs. Defaults to 2. The workers are
threads in multithreading mode and processes in multiprocessing mode.
For multiprocessing mode, this is in addition to the HTTP worker
processes.
.. option:: -c <config>, --config <config>
provide an alternate configuration file
.. option:: -s, --save
saves the server configuration to the current configuration file
(:file:`{$HOME}/.openerp_serverrc` by default, overridable using
:option:`-c`)
.. option:: --proxy-mode
enables the use of ``X-Forwarded-*`` headers through `Werkzeug's proxy
support`_.
.. warning:: proxy mode *must not* be enabled outside of a reverse proxy
scenario
.. option:: --test-enable
runs tests after installing modules
.. option:: --debug
when an unexpected error is raised (not a warning or an access error),
automatically starts :mod:`python:pdb` before logging and returning the
error
.. _reference/cmdline/server/database:
database
--------
.. option:: -r <user>, --db_user <user>
database username, used to connect to PostgreSQL.
.. option:: -w <password>, --db_password <password>
database password, if using `password authentication`_.
.. option:: --db_host <hostname>
host for the database server
* ``localhost`` on Windows
* UNIX socket otherwise
.. option:: --db_port <port>
port the database listens on, defaults to 5432
.. option:: --db-filter <filter>
hides databases that do not match ``<filter>``. The filter is a
`regular expression`_, with the additions that:
- ``%h`` is replaced by the whole hostname the request is made on.
- ``%d`` is replaced by the subdomain the request is made on, with the
exception of ``www`` (so domain ``odoo.com`` and ``www.odoo.com`` both
match the database ``odoo``)
.. option:: --db-template <template>
when creating new databases from the database-management screens, use the
specified `template database`_. Defaults to ``template1``.
built-in HTTP
-------------
.. option:: --no-xmlrpc
do not start the HTTP or long-polling workers (may still start cron
workers)
.. warning:: has no effect if :option:`--test-enable` is set, as tests
require an accessible HTTP server
.. option:: --xmlrpc-interface <interface>
TCP/IP address on which the HTTP server listens, defaults to ``0.0.0.0``
(all addresses)
.. option:: --xmlrpc-port <port>
Port on which the HTTP server listens, defaults to 8069.
.. option:: --longpolling-port <port>
TCP port for long-polling connections in multiprocessing or gevent mode,
defaults to 8072. Not used in default (threaded) mode.
logging
-------
By default, Odoo displays all logging of level_ ``info`` except for workflow
logging (``warning`` only), and log output is sent to ``stdout``. Various
options are available to redirect logging to other destinations and to
customize the amout of logging output
.. option:: --logfile <file>
sends logging output to the specified file instead of stdout. On Unix, the
file `can be managed by external log rotation programs
<https://docs.python.org/2/library/logging.handlers.html#watchedfilehandler>`_
and will automatically be reopened when replaced
.. option:: --logrotate
enables `log rotation <https://docs.python.org/2/library/logging.handlers.html#timedrotatingfilehandler>`_
daily, keeping 30 backups. Log rotation frequency and number of backups is
not configurable.
.. option:: --syslog
logs to the system's event logger: `syslog on unices <https://docs.python.org/2/library/logging.handlers.html#sysloghandler>`_
and `the Event Log on Windows <https://docs.python.org/2/library/logging.handlers.html#nteventloghandler>`_.
Neither is configurable
.. option:: --log-db <dbname>
logs to the ``ir.logging`` model (``ir_logging`` table) of the specified
database. The database can be the name of a database in the "current"
PostgreSQL, or `a PostgreSQL URI`_ for e.g. log aggregation
.. option:: --log-handler <handler-spec>
:samp:`{LOGGER}:{LEVEL}`, enables ``LOGGER`` at the provided ``LEVEL``
e.g. ``openerp.models:DEBUG`` will enable all logging messages at or above
``DEBUG`` level in the models.
* The colon ``:`` is mandatory
* The logger can be omitted to configure the root (default) handler
* If the level is omitted, the logger is set to ``INFO``
The option can be repeated to configure multiple loggers e.g.
.. code-block:: console
$ odoo.py --log-handler :DEBUG --log-handler werkzeug:CRITICAL --log-handler openerp.fields:WARNING
.. option:: --log-request
enable DEBUG logging for RPC requests, equivalent to
``--log-handler=openerp.http.rpc.request:DEBUG``
.. option:: --log-response
enable DEBUG logging for RPC responses, equivalent to
``--log-handler=openerp.http.rpc.response:DEBUG``
.. option:: --log-web
enables DEBUG logging of HTTP requests and responses, equivalent to
``--log-handler=openerp.http:DEBUG``
.. option:: --log-sql
enables DEBUG logging of SQL querying, equivalent to
``--log-handler=openerp.sql_db:DEBUG``
.. option:: --log-level <level>
Shortcut to more easily set predefined levels on specific loggers. "real"
levels (``critical``, ``error``, ``warn``, ``debug``) are set on the
``openerp`` and ``werkzeug`` loggers (except for ``debug`` which is only
set on ``openerp``).
Odoo also provides debugging pseudo-levels which apply to different sets
of loggers:
``debug_sql``
sets the SQL logger to ``debug``
equivalent to ``--log-sql``
``debug_rpc``
sets the ``openerp`` and HTTP request loggers to ``debug``
equivalent to ``--log-level debug --log-request``
``debug_rpc_answer``
sets the ``openerp`` and HTTP request and response loggers to
``debug``
equivalent to ``--log-level debug --log-request --log-response``
.. note::
In case of conflict between :option:`--log-level` and
:option:`--log-handler`, the latter is used
Advanced options
----------------
.. option:: --auto-reload
enable auto-reloading of python files and xml files without having to
restart the server. Requires pyinotify_.
.. _reference/cmdline/scaffold:
Scaffolding
===========
.. program:: odoo.py scaffold
Scaffolding is the automated creation of a skeleton structure to simplify
bootstrapping (of new modules, in the case of Odoo). While not necessary it
avoids the tedium of setting up basic structures and looking up what all
starting requirements are.
Scaffolding is available via the :command:`odoo.py scaffold` subcommand.
.. option:: -t <template>
a template directory, files are passed through jinja2_ then copied to
the ``destination`` directory
.. option:: name
the name of the module to create, may munged in various manners to
generate programmatic names (e.g. module directory name, model names, …)
.. option:: destination
directory in which to create the new module, defaults to the current
directory
.. _reference/cmdline/config:
Configuration file
==================
Most of the command-line options can also be specified via a configuration
file. Most of the time, they use similar names with the prefix ``-`` removed
and other ``-`` are replaced by ``_`` e.g. :option:`--db-template` becomes
``db_template``.
Some conversions don't match the pattern:
* :option:`--db-filter` becomes ``dbfilter``
* :option:`--no-xmlrpc` corresponds to the ``xmlrpc`` boolean
* logging presets (all options starting with ``--log-`` except for
:option:`--log-handler` and :option:`--log-db`) just add content to
``log_handler``, use that directly in the configuration file
* :option:`--smtp` is stored as ``smtp_server``
* :option:`--database` is stored as ``dbname``
* :option:`--debug` is stored as ``debug_mode`` (a boolean)
* :option:`--i18n-import` and :option:`--i18n-export` aren't available at all
from configuration files
The default configuration file is :file:`{$HOME}/.openerp_serverrc` which
can be overridden using :option:`--config <odoo.py -c>`. Specifying
:option:`--save <odoo.py -s>` will save the current configuration state back
to that file.
