Description of the issue/feature this PR addresses: Allow to uninstall from command line ✨

Current behavior before PR: Sometimes you are not able to get to UI due to some crash and you become helpless, you can not uninstall the culprit module. One module can break the whole system and you have no way of uninstalling the module that caused the problems. For Example, The error "can not parse from bool" which may occur after the upgrade of a module.

Often you dont get UI because of some crash and you are not able to get your system to healthy state.

Usage: ./odoo.py -d db_name --uninstall module_name(s)
(Comma separated list of module_name(s))

Desired behavior after PR is merged: Ability to uninstall module from command line.

Do we really want this feature?

Yenthe666 · 2016-06-11T15:40:19Z

@mart-e I for one would love this feature. Every once in a while it would be handy and faster.

guewen · 2016-06-13T08:22:15Z

I would love this feature too! In the idea of automated migrations on projects, this is a must-have.

rim-odoo · 2016-06-13T08:24:59Z

@dek-odoo Is there a task linked to this PR ?

dek-odoo · 2016-06-13T08:44:59Z

No @rim-odoo

nicobustillos · 2016-06-19T19:42:48Z

Definitely necessary. Sometimes, when a module gives non-trivial errors in the server and you can't go to the modules menu (precisely because of the error), I have to run an update query on the ir_module_module table and set in as 'uninstalled' just so I can recover Odoo service. Or am I missing something?

josemoralesp · 2016-07-13T15:34:36Z

This PR will be merged?

spadae22 · 2016-07-13T15:46:55Z

@Yenthe666 I would love this also, since sometimes a modules due to many issues, cannot be removed from the UI. It usually forced you to remove other modules or update the db manually.

dreispt · 2016-07-14T13:54:12Z

I believe that this feature is relevant, for practical and for consistency reasons.
And it would allow us (I hope) to uninstall a bad module that is preventing the startup sequence from working correctly - a frequent issue for newbie developers.

spadae22 · 2016-07-14T13:55:36Z

@dreispt +1

Fenkiou · 2017-01-13T08:47:54Z

Any news on this ?

rim-odoo · 2017-01-13T08:50:04Z

@KangOl ?

diamark · 2017-02-06T21:34:03Z

good work. I used the code in a v10 migration to uninstall addons after migration which could not be uninstalled prior to migration due to dependencies.

One thing, though: the mods I wanted to uninstall after migration were all of state 'to upgrade'. I think it makes sense to include that state along with 'installed'. After all, an uninstall cli option should override the upgrade state in the db.

mart-e · 2017-03-02T08:31:56Z

The development was canceled, not going to be integrated

Yenthe666 · 2017-03-02T08:34:52Z

@mart-e could you give feedback why it was canceled though? Quite some people wanted it, this PR made them happy and now it is cancelled. I'm quite sure there is a good reason though. Could you let us know why?

mart-e · 2017-03-02T09:26:19Z

Lots of developments get canceled. This was a side development but not our priority. We refocus from time to time to more urgent work.
Also uninstalling is very dangerous, I don't think it is a good idea to be done very lightly in one command.

dek-odoo · 2017-03-20T05:30:17Z

This is what demotivates me from doing open source contribution. 👎

Yenthe666 · 2017-03-20T07:05:39Z

@mart-e too bad this got cancelled, this is one of the best PR's in weeks.
If you're argument is that you don't 'think it is a good idea to be done very lightly in one command' you could still add an exta param / question you need to pass before you can do this.

mart-e · 2017-03-20T07:47:58Z

This is what demotivates me from doing open source contribution. 👎

@dek-odoo you need to realize that, because somebody spend some time to make a contribution is not a good enough reason to be integrated. The point of opening the contributions from anyone is to make the software better, not to make it fit to every user needs.
We decided (cf task), that this addition was not adding enough value to the product based on the direction we want to give, (e.g. better business flows). So sorry for the time you spent doing so but, at this point, we do not wish to spend even more time on it.

dreispt · 2017-03-20T08:24:51Z

@dek-odoo There is a good chance that this PR is accepted at https://github.com/oca/ocb

dek-odoo · 2017-03-20T09:46:51Z

@mart-e Nobody is going to know the actual reason of this PR not being merged. 😄
No problem at all.
Have fun, enjoy.

@dreispt
Thank you, I will, soon.

gustavovalverde · 2017-05-31T01:01:15Z

Too bad it was not accepted, thumps up though. 👍

dreispt · 2019-04-22T14:56:49Z

@mart-e any chance this could be reconsidered?

mart-e · 2019-05-06T10:08:40Z

@dreispt will see, I have put the task back to validate but this is a low priority so may take some times before review.

mart-e · 2019-05-09T08:54:39Z

Sorry but after internal discussion, it is still a no.
We do not wish to add commands at the moment, especially for infrequent usecases like uninstall. If this is really needed, it is easy to do it in a oneline shell command like:

$ echo "self.env['ir.module.module'].search([('name', '=', 'crm')]).button_immediate_uninstall()" | python odoo-bin shell -d mydb

blaggacao · 2019-05-22T05:53:05Z

Try dodoo-migrator https://github.com/xoe-labs/dodoo-migrator ... it's doing a decent enough job for the time being.

Simply easy and it helps much. I always do the same and if add -u all to consider all modules, you will get the message about all the missing depends of some modules and that is really awesome.
