Before proceeding please note that Dply services are no longer available 

We’ve covered installing Docker on Dply.co in a previous post, this post will be a follow on to this post and we’ll use Docker containers to install Odoo Docker container on dply.co

This post will be an introduction to deploying web applications on dply.co using Docker containers, please note that the free tier of dply.co is only for 2 hours so you should only use it for trial purposes, of course, you can always pay to make it a production version.

Step One

Follow the first post to create an account and install Docker.

Step Two

Pull Odoo Docker container using the following command;

docker pull odoo

Step Three

Start the PostgreSQL server using the following command;

docker run -d -e POSTGRES_USER=odoo -e POSTGRES_PASSWORD=odoo –name db postgres:9.4

Step Four

Start Odoo Docker container using the following command;

docker run -p 8069:8069 –name odoo –link db:db -t odoo

Step Five

After the installation process is complete, you can log to your container from the browser using your IP address that you can get from your Dply dashboard e.g. (http://machine_IP).

Step Six

In the first step of the installation process, you should created a database through creating a password, database name, and email.

Step Seven

Now, you’ll be directed to the backend of your Odoo installation.

Congratulations, you’ve successfully installed a Odoo container on Dply, we’re going to cover more Docker container installations for many more web applications in the coming posts.
