Install procedure on README does not work #50

Closed snowme34 closed 5 years ago

snowme34 commented 5 years ago

The current way to decide if the backend will start scraping or not is based on a 'global' environment variable. Perhaps we can make it built-in via docker files.

And therefore the command on readme does not work. It will not export SDSCHEDULE_SCRAPE=1. User needs to run the scripts with . to keep the variable.

Yeah, because the scripts are run in two different contexts, the variable being exported doesn't matter in the install script
