    -e SYNAPSE_REPORT_STATS=yes \
    -v `pwd`/data/synapse:/data \
    matrixdotorg/synapse:latest \
    generate

# docker-compose exec synapse register_new_matrix_user -c /data/homeserver.yaml http://localhost:8008

Resetting a user password:

# docker-compose exec synapse hash_password


# docker-compose exec postgres psql -U synapse
