Answers to specific technical questions

Sammelseite für offene Fragen (English / Deutsch).

Portal-Compose:

These are questions related to Readme.md in the project:

1. submodules init not necessary anymore? so it can be moved to Docker-Wikibase or completely removed from Readme

2. Add volume in dev-extensions for extension in readme.md in develop-locally section (Johannes)

3. readme.md for ci: why is it required to set default test-passwords in ci as the readme suggests, some tests seem to fail locally with default password ?

4. Test locally: run_tests.sh. Add additional note in readme for this: Run compose-up locally then execute script

5. Admin password doesn't change locally (from default password) although all containers deleted before and new password defined in env variable, so the local test for this also fails.

6. Deploy on the MaRDI server: notes seem ok, but incomplete, how is deployment done?
