Description
During setup, I found:
Problems
-
docker-env variables are not used in config
-
odoouser has no fixed UID (bad) -
initial setup needs:
docker exec -it odoo-web-1 idchown -R <id>:<id> /mnt/odoodocker exec -it odoo-web-1 odoo -i base
Improvements
-
use sed/echo to create odoo-config from env vars
-
add user odoo with fixed UID (and add it to documentation)
-
check first run (maybe with a lockfile) and run the
odoo -i baseon first run

Research direction
Start with the setup guide and reproduce the listed Docker commands to understand the current first-run flow. Trace how docker-env variables reach the configuration, then define completion as using those variables, assigning and documenting a fixed odoo UID, and running initialization only on the first run.
