The password is passed inside the environment variable
DATABASE_URL
which is URI-like. However, it must be URL encoded there if it contains any strange characters, like a space,%
, etc.Also add a handy command
dj_setup_database update-password
that reset the MySQL database user password to what it currently inetc/dbpassword.secret
, and handle weird passwords in this script. This script is now bash, and should probably be rewritten in PHP or so.
