   ║  ╠═ Dockerfile
   ║  ╠═ server.py
   ║  ╠═ utilities
   ║  ╠═ templates

   ╚═ TODO.md

Create a volumes folder inside of src to house your copy of the database:

mkdir src/volumes

To add a (empty) database, run the following from inside of volumes:

sqlite3 agora.db < ../params/agora.schema

You can run this with Docker Compose. First you need to define a few environment variables in a file called .env in the project root. (It should be gitignored, since it will have some sensitive info in it.) The following environment variables must be defined there:

• AGORA_PORT: the physical port on your machine to map onto the Docker image's virtual port
• HOST: the domain name at which you're serving the app
• MAILGUN_KEY: the API key that you're using for Mailgun
• RECAPTCHA_SITEKEY: your reCaptcha site key
• RECAPTCHA_SERVERKEY: your reCaptcha server key
• DEV_EMAILS: a comma-separated list of emails of people you would like to receive bug report emails for the Agora instance

Then, just run docker compose up!
