I would like to use an existing database on the system next to docker. Most other docker-installations have so environment-variables to describe which external database should be used.

Sounds like a good idea! This repository is entirely maintained by the pretalx community, not by the developers, so the only way to make this change is by way of a Pull Request – feel free to submit one!

I changed the pretalx.cfg to the following and removed the db-container-settings in docker-compose.yml:

[database]
backend=mysql
name=pretalx
user=pretalx
password=REPLACCEPASSWORD
host=/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock

I am not really shure, if I should change the existing config-files, but I think here someone can find it as a reference.
