Hi sarahjohn,

The scaffold command is a built in command that is available across all Odoo versions.
Usually you should execute the Odoo main file, which is usually named odoo-server. For example in V11:

cd /odoo/odoo-server/
./odoo-bin scaffold your_module_name addons/

In V10 and below:

cd /odoo/odoo-server/
./openerp-server scaffold your_module_name addons/

You can find more information and details in the official wiki about this too! See https://www.odoo.com/documentation/11.0/howtos/backend.html#module-structure

With community version in Ubuntu, I have been looking for a while for odoo-bin, but I couldn't find it. At last I manage to make it work with

"odoo scaffold <module_name> <module location>" with root permissions

it works in any directory and both versions 10 and 11, at least.
