can't setup without errors while following instructions in readme

[whatSocks]

here are my incremental changes as I try to get this project working locally following the readme https://github.com/RadicalxChange/rxc-voice/pull/34

Following the documentation in the readme, i wasn't able to run with the recommended docker command. I was able to with docker-compose -f docker-compose-polis.yml build

[alexrandaccio]

what version of docker do you have installed?

[whatSocks]

3.2.2 (i just updated to 3.3.1)

[alexrandaccio]

Hmm, I'm not sure why docker-compose -f <filepath> up --build isn't working for you, you are the first person it hasn't worked for. However, it's just a way of building and running in one command instead of two. If docker-compose -f <filepath> build works for you, then you should be able to use docker-compose -f <filepath> up after that. Let me know if that doesn't work!

[whatSocks]

works, I do get this error though (following readme step by step):

I try creating users using the command on readme and it says:

 docker exec -it rxc-voice_api_1 ./manage.py createsuperuser
Error response from daemon: Container c07102cd6ccd6e9c8938cc1c80d1501a49196254a0dc4f5cd9bf84a7fb612992 is not running

[alexrandaccio]

django.core.exceptions.ImproperlyConfigured: The SECRET_KEY setting must not be empty.

You just need to create a secret key and assign it in .env Then the container will start up properly and you will be able to create a superuser.

If you have Django installed you can generate secret keys with this command: python -c 'from django.core.management.utils import get_random_secret_key; \ print(get_random_secret_key())'

Closing this for now--let's continue the discussion about improving documentation for local development in #23
