How to develop (run and debug) modules in Odoo v11 on Visual Studio Code in Ubuntu?

Is it possible to run and debug Odoo on Visual Studio Code? If yes please share me the configuration.

Visual Studio Code is a source code editor developed by Microsoft for Windows, Linux and macOS. It includes support for debugging, embedded Git control, syntax highlighting, intelligent code completion, snippets, and code refactoring. It is free and open-source, although the official download is under a proprietary license.

I know I'm a bit late but I have managed to work with Odoo 11.

My installation path is "C:\Program Files (x86)\Odoo 11.0\server"

Now open the vs code and goto Workspace settings and paste this:

{
"python.pythonPath": "C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Odoo 11.0\\python\\python.exe",
"python.linting.pylintEnabled": false,
// use this so the autocompleate/goto definition will work with python extension
"python.autoComplete.extraPaths": [
    "${workspaceRoot}/odoo/addons",
    "${workspaceRoot}/odoo",
    "${workspaceRoot}/odoo/openerp/addons"
],
//"python.linting.pylintPath": "optional: path to python use if you have environment path",
"python.linting.enabled": false,
//load the pylint_odoo
"python.linting.pylintArgs": [
    "--load-plugins",
    "pylint_odoo"
],
"python.formatting.provider": "yapf",
//"python.formatting.yapfPath": "optional: path to python use if you have environment path",
// "python.linting.pep8Path": "optional: path to python use if you have environment path",
"python.linting.pep8Enabled": true,
// add this auto-save option so the pylint will sow errors while editing otherwise
//it will only show the errors on file save
"files.autoSave": "afterDelay",
"files.autoSaveDelay": 500,
// The following will hide the compiled file in the editor/ add other file to hide them from editor
"files.exclude": {
    "**/*.pyc": true
}

}

save it and open the code folder in vs "C:\Program Files (x86)\Odoo 11.0\server\odoo"

then goto debugging setting and a new configuration file and paste below code:

{
// Use IntelliSense to learn about possible attributes.
// Hover to view descriptions of existing attributes.

"version": "0.2.0",
"configurations": [
    {
        "name": "Python: Odoo",
        "type": "python",
        "request": "launch",
        "stopOnEntry": false,
        "pythonPath": "${config:python.pythonPath}",
        "console": "externalTerminal",
        "program": "${workspaceRoot}\\..\\odoo-bin",
        "args": [
            "--config=${workspaceRoot}\\..\\odoo.conf",
        ],
        "cwd": "${workspaceRoot}",
        "env": {},
        "envFile": "${workspaceRoot}/.env",
        "debugOptions": [
            "RedirectOutput"
        ]
    }
]

}

and just hit the run button. remember vs code might give you some warning press ignore button and wait for the console to open and you are done. enjoy debugging and coding.

Don't forget to stop the Odoo service from window services.
