setup/docker/create_database.sh throws errors

Setting up a new Redash instance using Docker compose and redash image 0.11.0.b1807

I'm using docker-compose 1.7.1 installed via pip into a virtualenvironment.

When I run ./setup/docker/create_database.sh with the docker-compose virtualenv activated, it ends with the following errors:

Status: Downloaded newer image for redash/redash:0.11.0.b1807
Creating user (admin, Admin)...
Admin: True
Login with Google Auth: False

./setup/docker/create_database.sh: line 22: docker-compose: command not found
./setup/docker/create_database.sh: line 23: docker-compose: command not found
./setup/docker/create_database.sh: line 24: docker-compose: command not found
./setup/docker/create_database.sh: line 25: docker-compose: command not found
./setup/docker/create_database.sh: line 27: docker-compose: command not found

This is because virtualenv prepends PATH with the path to the virtualenv that has docker-compose, but this gets reset when you dump/source the PATH from the postgres container here:
https://github.com/getredash/redash/blob/master/setup/docker/create_database.sh#L16

So from that point onward in the script, docker-compose can't be found.

Also, looks like docker-compose 1.7.0 now supports a docker-compose exec command, perhaps that should be used here?

Maybe the script runs in a new shell and doesn't find the docker-compose
command.

Try modifying it to activate the virtualenv.

It looks like you responded to the initial comment via email... I updated the OP shortly after I posted with more details after I tracked it down further...

Indeed I have, but my suggestion is still relevant. Just activate the virtualenv as part of this script.

Fixed in #1530.
