# ERPLibre


ERPLibre is a CRM/ERP platform including automated installation, maintenance, and development of open source modules of
the Odoo community version. It is a "soft-fork" of the Odoo Community Edition (OCE), meaning it aims at contributing
back upstream.
It is based on a set of production-ready modules, supported by the Odoo Community Association (OCA) and an
ecosystem of specialized companies. This solution ensures digital sovereignty in a local environment while integrating
pre-trained Generative Transformers (GPT), bringing an additional dimension to data management and automation.

- **Multi-version Odoo support** : run Odoo 12.0, 13.0, 14.0, 15.0, 16.0, 17.0 and 18.0 in the same workspace, with independent Python virtual environments (`.venv.erplibre` and `.venv.odooXX`)
- **Interactive CLI (TODO.py)** : guided interactive tool for installation, execution, database management, code formatting, mobile compilation, and more. Launch it with `make`
- **Code generator** : generate Odoo modules automatically with support for views, portal, snippets, inheritance, i18n, and JavaScript
- **Selenium automation** : web testing and automation with Selenium Grid, video recording, and login automation
- **Mobile application** : ERPLibre Home Mobile (Owl + Capacitor), compiled and deployed via TODO.py
- **Docker deployment** : production-ready Docker images with PostgreSQL 18 and PostGIS
- **Deployment tools** : Nginx, Apache, Cloudflare DDNS, Certbot SSL, systemd services
- **Database tools** : backup, restore, clone, migration between versions, production-to-dev migration
- **Performance tools** : request-per-second measurement, parallel test execution, coverage analysis

# Installation in production

## Easy installation on Ubuntu or Debian using Docker

This has been tested in Debian 12 and Ubuntu 24.04 LTS.

**Note** : This is meant for a test environment, on a local network or similar environment not directly exposed to the
Internet.


1. Make sure Docker and nginx web server are installed:<BR>
   `sudo apt install docker.io docker-compose-v2 nginx`
1. Get the latest ERPLibre Docker compose file:<BR>
   `wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ERPLibre/ERPLibre/master/docker-compose.yml`
1. Install and run ERPLibre with Docker running as a daemon (web server):<BR>
   `sudo docker compose up -d`
1. Open the final installation step at this web page :<BR>
   `http://[server IP]:8069/web/database/manager`<BR>
   ![odoo_first_installation.png](doc/image/odoo_first_installation.png)
1. Finish the installation by providing a database name, email and password. then click on **Create Database**.
   Depending on your system resources **this may take more than 2 minutes without feedback !** Check your browser
   loading indicator.
1. Next, the web page will reload itself, and you should see the Applications list in ERPLibre:<BR>

   You can now personalize your ERPLibre installation.


For more information, read [Docker guide](./docker/README.md).

## Install from source code

### Automated installation


For Debian/Ubuntu


```bash
sudo apt install make python3
```


Clone the project:


```bash
git clone https://github.com/ERPLibre/ERPLibre.git
cd ERPLibre
```


Follow the instruction on the following script, it will try to detect your environment.


```bash
make
```


### Manually

Into Ubuntu, minimal dependency:


```bash
sudo apt install make git curl
```


Into Ubuntu, developer dependency:


```bash
sudo apt install make build-essential libssl-dev zlib1g-dev libreadline-dev libsqlite3-dev curl llvm libncurses5-dev libncursesw5-dev xz-utils tk-dev liblzma-dev libbz2-dev libldap2-dev libsasl2-dev
```


Clone the project:


```bash
git clone https://github.com/ERPLibre/ERPLibre.git
cd ERPLibre
```


`make install_os` detects the distribution and picks the right dependency script: apt for Ubuntu, Linux Mint and Debian, dnf for Fedora and the RHEL family, zypper for openSUSE, pacman for Arch, and a declarative module for NixOS. See the supported platforms above.


```bash
make install_os
make install_odoo_18
```


Install a specific Odoo version:


```bash
make install_odoo_16
make install_odoo_17
make install_odoo_18
```


Update your configuration if you need to run from another interface than 127.0.0.1, file `config.conf`


```
xmlrpc_interface = 0.0.0.0
```


Show version :


```bash
make version
```


Ready to execute:


```bash
make run
```


# Test

Execute ERPLibre test with his code generator.


```bash
time make test_full_fast
```
