This is the forked Git repo from the official Docker image for Odoo. The reason is to add ability to run Odoo from source
To run the community version of odoo from source, clone from https://github.com/odoo/odoo.git
Execute this command to create a container named odoo-db running the latest postgres
sudo docker run -d -e POSTGRES_USER=odoo -e POSTGRES_PASSWORD=odoo --name odoo-db postgres
Then to start odoo by executing this command
sudo docker run -it --name odoo --link odoo-db:db -p 8069:8069 -v /path-to-odoo-source/odoo:/mnt/odoo odoo:test
* This will link to odoo-db, map the locally cloned odoo source code into \mnt\odoo and create a container named odoo
