📘 Documentation & Community Resources

✨ NEW: Quick Deploy Script
Based on community feedback, we’ve added a simple deployment script:
-
Run:
curl -sSL https://get.adventurelog.app | bash
-
Provide your domain/ip details when prompted.
The script handles Docker Compose, and environment configuration automatically.
Self-hosting just got a bit easier—no more manual setup steps.
ℹ️ Additional Notes
-
Bulk Geocoding
To geocode existing adventures in one go docker exec into the backend container and run:python manage.py bulk-adventure-geocode
This will link all adventures to their correct country, region, and city.
-
Timezone Migrations
If you have older trips without explicit timezones, simply view a trip’s detail page and AdventureLog will auto-convert the dates.
