Script alternatives
This script has required some effort, but in improvements sake, I'll go with a question, should we consider a more structured tool, like ansible? What do you think @Yenthe666 @tvibliani.
Docker is perhaps out of question because the same Odoo says than their docker scripts are to buggy, and don't recommend it. But there is no other option, and I was thinking than perhaps Ansible is a good idea.
Hi @sebastian-code
I'm all for suggestions and ideas so I would say shoot! I personally don't know ansible and haven't worked with it so I'm a bit in the dark here. Could you give me a short summary about Ansible and what would be the benefits/downsides from using it?
As to regarding Docker: Why would this be out of the question? There just hasn't been any good and clean implementation for Odoo/Docker yet but I don't see any reason why it wouldn't be possible though.
Well @Yenthe666 about Docker, I don't think is impossible, and actually I think is not that difficult, but what I was thinking was about a cleaner and more structured (so less error prone too) installation process.
That's were Ansible comes. You can use it basically in two ways, the first one is introducing a lot of command line instructions than simplify the process, or the more structured Playbooks I'm still too green with Ansible, but I like the idea basically because is written in Python (and I have Python bias), is FOSS (and obviously I have Open Source bias), and because one can use it also to administer complex infrastructure after deployments without installing anything on the target machine.
Here is the repo https://github.com/ansible/ansible with more information.
@sebastian-code @Yenthe666 Here's an Ansible installer for Odoo 10 on16.04, probably needs to be updated for 11 on 17.04: https://github.com/osiell/ansible-odoo
