Database: Initialization and Loading in BibTeX files

Initialization

Place an SQL database dump in the root folder of the project and call it catalog.sql (the name of the file is determined tasks.py restore_from_dump function). Now delete your old docker volumes and containers (docker-compose down -v) and bring all the containers up again (docker-compose up -d). The data should now be loaded into the database.

Loading in BibTeX files

To load in a BibTeX file run the load_bibtex management command. For example, to load a file named abm_publications_2016.bib into the database as user foo you would run

./manage.py load_bibtex -f abm_publications_2016.bib -u foo
