Export and Import Modules
|
|
=========================
|
|
|
|
When you do customizations in Odoo Studio, a new module is created in your database, making it easy
|
|
to use Studio for prototyping.
|
|
|
|
To export these customizations, activate Studio on the main dashboard and, under the menu
|
|
*Customizations*, click on *Export*. The default filename is *customizations.zip*.

|
|
|
|
| The module created contains the definition of custom models and fields, as well as the UI elements
|
|
of any customization in an XML format.
|
|
| To import and install the customizations in another instance, connect to the destination database,
|
|
activate Studio and, under *Customizations*, click on *Import*.

.. warning::
|
|
Studio does not know which apps are customized (because the same view can be modified on
|
|
different apps), therefore, it *does not* add the underlying modules as dependencies of the
|
|
exported module. In other words, the applications installed on the source database should be
|
|
installed on the destination database. |
