Re: Run wkhtmltopdf under docker

If I understand you, you just want to dockerize wkhtmlpdf (a bit like py3o fusion https://hub.docker.com/r/xcgd/py3o.fusion/)

There is allready a wkhtmlpdf docker on docker hub (https://hub.docker.com/r/openlabs/docker-wkhtmltopdf/ or better https://hub.docker.com/r/openlabs/docker-wkhtmltopdf-aas/)

Then wkhtmltopdf can be call from curl or json

Dont know if it is easy to switch this on place of the original wkhtmltopdf

Thanks. The idea is not (yet) to completely dockerize odoo. 

Instead, we want to independize the serivce provided by wkhtmltopdf 0.12.1 from the platform in which odoo runs.

As we all know, 0.12.1 is very old, but it is the only one that works for odoo.

I was thinking that you should be able to create a bash with the name 'wkhtmltopdf' and put it in /usr/local/bin.

When odoo calls 'wkhtmltopdf' it will invoke the bash script, which will call the docker to provide the service.

Using docker all time for Odoo, did not get any issue just be sure to 
set report.url to http://127.0.0.1:8069

are you using the official Odoo docker or did you make you own.
