The oe script

The oe script provides a set of command-line tools around the OpenERP framework. It is meant to replace the older openerp-server script (which is still available).

Using oe

In contrast to the previous openerp-server script, oe defines a few commands, each with its own set of flags and options. You can get some information for any of them with

> oe <command> --help

For instance:

> oe run-tests --help

Some oe options can be provided via environment variables. For instance:

> export OPENERP_DATABASE=trunk
> export OPENERP_HOST=127.0.0.1
> export OPENERP_PORT=8069

Depending on your needs, you can group all of the above in one single script; for instance here is a, say, test-trunk-view-validation.sh file:

COMMAND_REPO=/home/thu/repos/command/trunk/
SERVER_REPO=/home/thu/repos/server/trunk

export PYTHONPATH=$SERVER_REPO:$COMMAND_REPO
export PATH=$SERVER_REPO:$COMMAND_REPO:$PATH
export OPENERP_DATABASE=trunk
export OPENERP_HOST=127.0.0.1
export OPENERP_PORT=8069

# The -d ignored is actually needed by `oe` even though `test_view_validation`
# itself does not need it.
oe run-tests -d ignored -m openerp.test_view_validation

Available commands

See the :doc:`commands` page.

Adding new commands

See the :doc:`adding-command` page.

Bash completion

A preliminary oe-bash-completion file is provided. After sourcing it,

> . oe-bash-completion

completion (using the TAB character) in Bash should work.
