A CLI is provided in the Docker image so that admins can manage their instance.
Since the CLI is packaged into the docker image, you'll have to open a shell from the container. To do so, list first your running containers:
docker ps
This should display you something equivalent to this:
CONTAINER ID IMAGE COMMAND CREATED STATUS PORTS NAMES
3734c41af5a7 postgres:9.6 "docker-entrypoint.s…" 2 weeks ago Up 2 weeks 5432/tcp db_1
be6870fe103e nicolasconstant/birdsitelive:latest "dotnet BirdsiteLive…" 6 weeks ago Up 2 weeks 443/tcp, 0.0.0.0:5000->80/tcp birdsitelive
Find the BSL container and keep the ID, here it's be6870fe103e
. And you only need the three first char to identify it, so we'll be using be6
.
Then open a shell inside the container (change be6
with your own id):
docker exec -it be6 /bin/bash
And you should now be inside the container, and all you have to do is calling the CLI:
./BSLManager
The manager will ask you to provide information about the database and the instance.
Those must be same than the ones in the docker-compose.yml
file.
Provide the information, review it and validate it. Then the CLI UI should shows up.
You can navigate between the sections with the arrows and tab keys.
The filter permits to filter the list of users with a pattern.
All users have their followings count provided next to them.
You can select any user by using the up/down arrow keys and hitting the Enter
key, this will display more information about the user.
You can also remove a user and all their followings by hitting the Del
key. You will be prompted by a confirmation message, and you'll be able to remove this user.
Deleting users having a lots of followings can take some time: after the prompt has closed the process is still running and will update the list after that. Let the software do its thing and it will go through.
