# Installation

To install this module, you only need to add it to your addons, and load it as a server-wide module.

This can be done with the `server_wide_modules` parameter in `/etc/odoo.conf` or with the `--load` command-line parameter

`server_wide_modules = base,web,dbfilter_from_header`

# Configuration

Please keep in mind that the standard odoo dbfilter configuration is still applied before looking at the regular expression in the header.

- For nginx, use:

  `proxy_set_header X-Odoo-dbfilter [your filter regex];`

- For caddy, use:

  `proxy_header X-Odoo-dbfilter [your filter regex]`

- For Apache, use:

  `RequestHeader set X-Odoo-dbfilter [your filter regex]`

And make sure that proxy mode is enabled in Odoo’s configuration file:

`proxy_mode = True`

# Usage

To use this module, you need to complete installation and configuration parts.
