This video explains how to self host and odoo application on an Ubuntu 24.04 server using docker. To do so 4 containers are used, a db container with postgresql, an Odoo container, an nginx container and a certbot container.
Note that the versions used for these container can be modified, for example we are using odoo:18.0 in this tutorial but you can modify it to odoo:17.0 to use odoo version 17 instead, the same goes for other containers.
Nginx is used to route traffic to our odoo application securely using cerbot generated Let's Encrypt certificates. Additionally, Gzip is added to compress html,css and js, and security headers are added to further secure our application.
Docker volumes are used to save container data on the host machine for persistance, regardless if the container is destroyed.
odoo related settings are covered, such as changing the users password, adding a proxy mode, and hiding db options using list_db option.
Custom modules can be added by adding the addons_path option, next the custom module can be added to the addons volume, the app list can be then updated within odoo and you can find the custom module available for activation.
