  Hi Cyril,

  about external debian dependencies, like this one `libcairo2-dev`, I tried (see https://github.com/efatto/openupgrader/actions/runs/15818453346/job/44581882551 ), but this is not a binary.

  Hi Sergio,

  
  

  It looks great !

  
  

  So you need an odoo instance to upgrade other instances, right ?

  I guess the goal is to let non technical persons to manage migrations... ?

  
  

  About external debian dependencies, I think you can manage that with _manifest__.py

  Hi all!

  
  

  I put in a module for Odoo the methods I use to migrate Odoo from v. 7.0 onwards, to migrate to one or more upper versions from inside Odoo itself.

  
  

  It works by creating a series of virtualenv, one for each version to migrate, and making some customizable fixes on the process.

  
  

  The readme of the module is here https://github.com/efatto/openupgrader/blob/14.0/openupgrader/README.rst and I would like to contribute it to OCA if possible.

  
  

  Sergio Corato

  
  

  Notes:

  1. The methods need a robust refactoring - I've started to write them when I barely knew Python - but they have worked for several years, migrating more versions like from 8.0 to 12.0.

  2.  This module needs some extra debian package to work in the default OCA container, so it's impossible to make the tests work now.

• Re: New module to upgrade Odoo from Odoo itself

  (I added extra debian packages in `test.yml` file, thanks for the hint)

  
  

  Anyway, this module could be used to automate the tests for the openupgrade scripts, AFAIK they are not done until now.

  Hi Cyril,

  
  

  Thanks!

  
  

  No, it migrates itself!

  
  

  It's both for non technical people and for technical people who want to simplify the process, the next step is to include EE in the migration.

  
  

  It's also to give the final user the freedom to do the migration be himself, as Odoo is actually criticized to be partially a lock-in software for the hard migration process.
