FAQ
Here you can find frequently asked questions and their answers.
Why am I missing some features in web app?
Salt Rim uses background workers to power the web frontend and PWA and the browser usually caches files related to this. To verify that you have a cache issue try another browser or your current browser's incognito mode to check out the frontend.
How do I disable user registrations?
You can disable /register endpoint with environment variable.
How do I update Meilisearch?
The easy way
Everytime you restart Bar Assistant container the cocktail and ingredient data gets synced with Meilisearch. So the easiest way to update the Meilisearch is to delete the container and the related volume, and create a new one.

$ docker compose stop meilisearch
# Remove the container and related volume, please check if volume is deleted
$ docker compose rm meilisearch -v
# Pull new images
$ docker compose pull
# Restart the stack
$ docker compose restart
Update your docker-compose.yml file with new Meilisearch version, and run the stack.
