How to run odoo(openerp8) in IDE from source on windows

1. install python 2.7 (per openerp8's official doc, python 27 is required.)
2. download get-pip.py from https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py,
execute the command: python get-pip.py
3. get source of openerp8 from https://github.com/odoo/odoo.git
4. execute the command: pip install -r D:\source_code\odoo\openerp8/requirements.txt . (requirements.txt contains all dependencies. )

  1. The pip will install the python module automatically. However, the real world always bring us the issues because our C++ compile environment is not setup correctly. 
  2. we will get the link error when pip try to install psycopg2 (driver to access postgresql db.). Go to http://www.stickpeople.com/projects/python/win-psycopg/ and choose the compiled binary file directly.
  3. For Python-ldap, go to http://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/

5. Finally, go to http://sourceforge.net/projects/pywin32/files/pywin32 and choose correct version for python-win32service.

6. If you are family with eclipse a lot, I will recommend to use PyDev IDE to work with.
7. Create new project in PyDev and link the source folder to D:\source_code\odoo\openerp8
8. modify conf file of debian\openerp-server.conf as :
       [options]
       ; This is the password that allows database operations:
       ; admin_passwd = admin
       db_host = 127.0.0.1
       db_port = 5432
       db_user = openerp
       db_password = openerp
       addons_path = D:\source_code\odoo\openerp8\addons
9. go to PyDev and run openerp-server.py with "-c debian\openerp-server.conf".

How to fix "ValueError when trying to compile python module with VC Express"

When I tried to compile the python, I always get compile issue as following: ------------ ... File "C:\Python26\lib\ distutils\msvc9compiler.py ", line 358, in initialize vc_env = query_vcvarsall(VERSION, plat_spec) File "C:\Python26\lib\ distutils\msvc9compiler.py ", line 274, in query_vcvarsall raise ValueError(str(list(result.keys()))) ValueError: [u'path'] --------------------- Python community discussed a lot but no solution: http://bugs.python.org/issue7511 The root cause is because the latest visual studio change the *.bat file a lot especially on 64bit env.

Interview for System Design 1: Designing a URL Shortening service like TinyURL.

Problem:  This service will provide short aliases redirecting to long URLs. Step 1: Requirement Analysis Understand the the basic core features: 1. create short url from long url. 2. get the long url from  the short url.  Nice to have feature: 3. will url get expired in certain time? 4. could user define their customized short url? here is some questions need to clarify:  1. How long we need keep the url?  (it will have impact on storage, it is very import to understand to how long will the data be if such data will be stored in local storage). 2. Do we allow N : 1 or only 1: 1 mapping? (have impact about algorithm and data storage.  Step 2:   Estimation Of  Resource Usage common resources: data storage || web services: QPS Let's the estimation right now:  Assume DAU is about 500M,  Create: and one user will create new one item every 5 days. so the total creation per Second will be a. yearly new record: 500M/5 * 365 ~ 50G, new records a. monthly storage: 500M/5 * 100  * 30 = 100M *
