odoo_requirements.txt

odoo_requirements.txt is a text file that lists the repositories and apps to install on an Odoo instance. The format originates from odoo-helper and is supported by Odood.

Usage

Install all repositories and apps listed in the file:

odood addons add --odoo-requirements path/to/odoo_requirements.txt

You can also pass a directory — Odood will look for odoo_requirements.txt inside it:

odood addons add --odoo-requirements path/to/my-project/

This is convenient when the file lives alongside your project’s other config files and you want to point at the project root rather than the file itself.

Format

The file is parsed line by line. Each non-empty, non-comment line is a set of options:

Fetch addons from any git repository

-r|--repo <git repository>  [-b|--branch <git branch>]

Fetch addons from github repository

--github <github username/reponame> [-b|--branch <git branch>]

Fetch OCA addons from any OCA github repository

--oca <OCA reponame> [-b|--branch <git branch>]

Fetch addons directly from Odoo Apps

--odoo-app <app name>

Notes

• The file must end with a newline character.
• Lines beginning with # are treated as comments and ignored.

Example

# Third-party repos
--github crnd-inc/generic-addons --module generic_mixin -b 16.0
--oca project -m project_description

# From Odoo Apps
--odoo-app bureaucrat_helpdesk_lite
