# 1. Create a new project (interactive: picks Odoo version)
odoo init ~/projects/my-odoo
cd ~/projects/my-odoo

# 2. Generate docker-compose from settings
odoo reload

# 3. Assign a free port
odoo setup next-port

# 4. Start containers (first run builds images — takes a few minutes)
odoo up -d

# 5. Initialize the database
odoo -f db reset

# 6. Open in browser
# http://localhost:<PROXY_PORT>
# Login: admin / admin

Clone an existing project and set up locally​

odoo setting ODOO_DEMO 1

# 4. Reload and build
odoo reload
odoo build

# 5. Option A – fresh database with demo data:
odoo -f db reset

# 5. Option B – restore a customer database:
odoo -f restore odoo-db   # interactive file picker
odoo update               # update all modules

# 6. Start
odoo up -d
