How the Repo is Organized

• /data: raw data files used for some workshops
• /doc: files needed to generate the workshop documentation from sources

Docker container

The workshop dependencies and data files are available in a Docker container running PostgreSQL-12, PostGIS-2.5 and MobilityDB-develop.

• Pull the prebuilt image from the Docker Hub Registry.

  docker pull mobilitydb/mobilitydb:12-2.5-develop-workshop

• Create a Docker volume to preserve the PostgreSQL database files outside of the container.

  docker volume create mobilitydb_data

• Run the Docker container.

  docker run --name "mobilitydb" -d -p 5432 -v mobilitydb_data:/var/lib/postgresql mobilitydb/mobilitydb:12-2.5-develop-workshop 

• Enter into the Docker container.

  docker exec -it mobilitydb bash

• Connect to the database (username=docker, db=mobilitydb).

  psql -U docker -d mobilitydb 

• The workshop data files are available in the workshop directory inside the container.
