paperless-ngx - how to access administration commands (export, import, etc.)

[PozoSer]

Hello

I'm referring to these useful utilities: https://docs.paperless-ngx.com/administration/#bare-metal-route (document_export, document_import, retagging tools, etc.). According to paperless-ngx documentation, commands should be executed from cd /path/to/paperless/src (which I guess in the scripts is set up as /opt/paperless/src). However, I've tried some commands with no luck. If I run document_exporter i get "command not found"

Any help?

What is the specific command that you are executing?

[PozoSer]

document_importer "path"

[PozoSer]

The python script to import seem to be on /opt/paperless/src/documents/management/commands/, but running it from that folder does not work either.

Are you executing the command as specified in the documentation?

https://docs.paperless-ngx.com/administration/#management-commands

cd /opt/paperless/src
python3 manage.py document_importer <source>

Ohh I see. I misunderstood the command. I marked the question as solved.

Two more questions regarding paperless if you are so kind:

1. Am I correct that I still need to set up a redis database on another container/docker for the scheduling taks to work? I saw no redis database configured on /opt/paperless/paperless.conf and the official paperless manual (https://docs.paperless-ngx.com/configuration/#redis-broker) says that redis is required for processing scheduled tasks such as email fetching, index optimization and for training the automatic document matcher.
2. Is paperless configured as using postgresql as default database (should be according to paperless documentation I want to check before I start debugging why my document_import failed due to a sqlite error)?

Thanks!

My primary focus revolves around the development of application LXCs, and I'm not specialized in providing support for operational issues that may arise with these applications.

2. Paperless-ngx is not using the configured PostgreSQL #1716

redis is installed but commented out in the paperless.conf

[tteck]

Modified the script to incorporate Redis and PostgreSQL, while also introducing an option to include Adminer during installation.

You're truly amazing. Thanks!
