How can I make odoo service run with certain flags?

Question

I'm trying to set the configuration file of my odoo server to certain file, I know that running odoo with the -c <path> or --config <path> will do the work, but I'm running it in the server like a service so I can't do this, neither adding the configs to /etc/odoo/odoo.conf because I need 2 configuration files.

Does someone knows how can I can make odoo service run with certain flags(-c and --load)

Here's my config at /etc/odoo/odoo.conf

[options]
addons_path = /usr/lib/python2.7/distpackages/odoo/addons,/opt/odoo/addons/odoodoto
admin_passwd = XXXXXXXXXXXX
data_dir = /var/lib/odoo
db_host = False
db_name = False
db_password = False
db_port = 5432
db_user = False
demo = {}
log_level = warn
logfile = /var/log/odoo/odoo-server.log
logrotate = True
proxy_mode = False

And my second config:

[connector-options]
workers = 4
export ODOO_CONNECTOR_CHANNELS=root:5
export ODOO_CONNECTOR_PORT=8069
log-level = warn

And the --load=web,connector is the other flag I need

Without getting into many details of the init systems of Ubuntu, you should have a bash script inside /etc/init.d (probably /etc/init.d/odoo-server).

Inside that file insert a line:

DAEMON_OPTS="-c /etc/odoo/odoo.conf"

Use commas to pass more parameters
