Comment on Self-hosting Odoo ERP for small business - bad idea?
dan@upvote.au 1 week agoI know this comment is a bit old, but do you have any recommendations on how to learn about building custom Odoo modules? I’m an experienced developer (with over 20 years experience) but am new to Odoo. I’ve learnt some things by looking at the code for OCA modules (I had to debug an issue with the Plaid bank statement integration) but am interested in any resources you found useful.

Honestly, my main resources were the CTO at my company, as well as our existing custom modules so if you’re using OCA modules as a reference you’re already on the right path. If you’ve got any specific questions you can ask me, or I can try to think of what the common pitfalls are that I’ve seen that aren’t really well documented.
You can also contract me as a consultant but if you’ve got 20 years of dev experience I’m assuming you aren’t very interested.
Do you have access to the Enterprise codebase? That would also be helpful if you’re running enterprise modules
