The CKAN production.ini file is generated from the Docker .env file using /ckan-2-6/conf/production.ini.template

How to has been created the production.ini from the /ckan-2-6/conf/production.ini.template via Docker:

• In the/ckan-2-6/conf/Dockerfile has been added:

ARG CKAN_INI_TEMPLATE_FILE=production.ini.template

# Install gettext to use envsubst for creating production.ini from production.ini.template
RUN apt-get install -y gettext

# Copy the production.ini.template in the /etc/ckan/default/production.ini
COPY /conf/$CKAN_INI_TEMPLATE_FILE $CKAN_INI.template

• In the/ckan-2-6/setup/init_ckan.sh has been added:

# Substitute environment variables in the CKAN template file and output to the CKAN production.ini file
envsubst < /etc/ckan/default/production.ini.template > /etc/ckan/default/production.ini
# delete the CKAN template file
rm /etc/ckan/default/production.ini.template
