Learn how to build, deploy, and back up Odoo projects

What is WayHost?

Odoo.sh-style workflows on your own VPS: GitHub, Docker, staging, backups, and team access.

Getting started — first project

Sign in, get approved, and walk through the New project wizard (GitHub, Odoo, SSH).

Staging environments

Create a staging branch with a cloned, neutralized database for safe testing.

How to use Git submodules

Add public or private GitHub addon repos as submodules on a project branch, including deploy keys.

Deployments and Sync branch

How push-to-deploy, Sync branch, and deployment history work.

Custom domains and SSL

Point your domain at a branch, issue Let’s Encrypt certificates, and fix routing.

Connect to Odoo and SSH shell

One-click Odoo login, Connect as another user, and the browser SSH shell.

Team members and roles

Invite GitHub users who already signed into WayHost, and understand OWNER / ADMIN / DEVELOPER / VIEWER.

Backup destination paths

Configure where project backups are stored: native server, SSH, Google Drive, or OneDrive.

How to set up automatic backups

Enable scheduled backups for production: frequency, retention, and destination.

Create and restore backups

Manual backup, restore to an environment, download exact/neutralized dumps, and import zip archives.

Google Drive as a backup destination

Create a Google OAuth app, set the exact redirect URL, connect a destination, and store backups in Drive.

OneDrive as a backup destination

Register a Microsoft Entra app, set the Web redirect URI, connect OneDrive, and store backups.
