Docker compose⚑

The default docker compose doesn't work as it still uses mysql which was dropped. If you want to use sqlite just remove the database configuration.

I was not able to find the default admin user so I had to create it manually. Get into the docker:

docker exec -it pretalx bash

When you run the commands by default it uses another database file /pretalx/src/data/db.sqlite3, so I removed it and created a symbolic link to the actual place of the database /data/db.sqlite

pretalxuser@82f886a58c57:/$ rm /pretalx/src/data/db.sqlite3
pretalxuser@82f886a58c57:/$ ln -s /data/db.sqlite3 /pretalx/src/data/db.sqlite3

Then you can create the admin user:

python -m pretalx createsuperuser
