Deploying with KeyCDN_

This document will guide you through the setup of a KeyCDN_ account with your
|
|
Odoo powered website.
|
|
|
|
Step 1: Create a pull zone in the KeyCDN dashboard
|
|
--------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
.. image:: cdn/keycdn_create_a_pull_zone.png
|
|
:class: img-responsive
|
|
|
|
When creating the zone, enable the CORS option in the
|
|
:guilabel:`advanced features` submenu. (more on that later)
|
|
|
|
.. image:: cdn/keycdn_enable_CORS.png
|
|
:class: img-responsive
|
|
|
|
Once done, you'll have to wait a bit while KeyCDN_ is crawling your website.
|
|
|
|
.. image:: cdn/keycdn_progressbar.png
|
|
:class: img-responsive
|
|
|
|
.. note:: a new URL has been generated for your Zone, in this case it is
|
|
``http://pulltest-b49.kxcdn.com``
|
|
|
|
Step 2: Configure the odoo instance with your zone
|
|
--------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
In the Odoo back end, go to the :guilabel:`Website Settings`: menu, then
|
|
activate the CDN support and copy/paste your zone URL in the
|
|
:guilabel:`CDN Base URL` field.
|
|
|
|
.. image:: cdn/odoo_cdn_base_url.png
|
|
:class: img-responsive
|
|
|
|
Now your website is using the CDN for the resources matching the
|
|
:guilabel:`CDN filters` regular expressions.
|
|
|
|
You can have a look to the HTML of your website in order to check if the CDN
|
|
integration is properly working.

|
Why should I activate CORS?
|
|
---------------------------
|
|
|
|
A security restriction in some browsers (Firefox and Chrome at time of writing)
|
|
prevents a remotely linked CSS file to fetch relative resources on this same
|
|
external server.
|
|
|
|
If you don't activate the CORS option in the CDN zone, the more obvious
|
|
resulting problem on a default Odoo website will be the lack of font-awesome
|
|
icons because the font file declared in the font-awesome CSS won't be loaded on
|
|
the remote server.
|
|
|
|
Here's what you would see on your homepage in such a case:
|
|
|
|
.. image:: cdn/odoo_font_file_not_loaded.png
|
|
:class: img-responsive
|
|
|
|
A security error message will also appear in the browser's console:
|
|
|
|
.. image:: cdn/odoo_security_message.png
|
|
:class: img-responsive
|
|
|
|
Enabling the CORS option in the CDN fixes this issue.
