Thus, we remove the -y/--yes options, which were kind of unintuitive,
and we add instead `-i/--interactive`. The quickstart commands remain
interactive by default, but can be silenced with `-I/--non-interactive`.
This commit introduces many changes:
- a fully functional minio plugin for local installation
- an almost-functional native k8s deployment
- a new way to process configuration, better suited to plugins
There are still many things to do:
- get rid of all the TODOs
- get a fully functional minio plugin for k8s
- add documentation for pluginso
- ...
Missing features:
- https certificates
- xqueue
- lms/cms workers
Moreover, we scalability issues due to the uploaded file storage in the
lms/cms. To address this issue we need to develop the MinIO plugin so
that it becomes compatible with Open edX.

- [Improvement] Persist LMS/CMS logs to disk by default (with collaboration from @silviot 💪)
- [Bugfix] Fix installing a locally cloned requirement repository
- [Improvement] Add `--no-cache` option to `images build`
- [Improvement] Make it possible to configure the notes service hostname
- [Improvement] Better, more robust MySQL initialization
This is especially useful on Kubernetes. With this change, the forum
container no longer crashes whenever mongodb or elasticsearch are
unavailable. Instead, it just waits for thoses services to be up.
Previously, we could not run forum migrations in Kubernetes because they
relied on exec-ing the migration command in the running container -- and
there was no such container, because the services where not already up.
Configuration loading was overly complex. Here, we simplify it
drastically with reasonable defaults. Hacky additional variables are
unncessary now that we use custom jinja2 filters.
For initializing the mysql database, we now run the mysql client from
the mysql container. That means that the mysql client is no longer
required in the openedx container, as previously suggested in PR #209.
When running `pip install -r /path/to/x.txt`, relative paths listed in
x.txt are supposed to be relative to the current folder, and not the
x.txt folder. This results in an error during `pip install`:
./xblock-poll/ should either be a path to a local project or a VCS
url beginning with svn+, git+, hg+, or bzr+
This error was first reported here:

- More concise table of contents
- New intro
- Simpler make commands
- Fix a couple typos here and there
- Get rid of the default github issue template, and start using the
template created online.
Tutor is not using any bash-specific feature.
This commit changes (almost) all invocations to /bin/bash replacing them with
/bin/sh. It allows building a docker image that does not bundle bash in it.
The file k8s.py still has a bash invocation, to make sure this change does not
impact functionality for any user.
