Setup

Run git submodule init to initialize all submodules. To update the projects run git submodule update. To pull the latest changes from each submodule run git submodule foreach git pull. For further information of the usage of git submodules look at the offical documentation.

Create a file with the name cookie_password.txt in the secrets in which the at least 32 characters long secret key for the cookie is stored. Run docker compose build and docker compose up -d to start the container.

Git Access on the VM

We currently rely on SSH agent forwarding to have easy access to our git repositories on the VM we use for deployment. Checkout the official documentation for further information.
