[ckan-dev] Script configuring production.ini using paster config-tool

[Antal Buss]

I got mixed results with ckanext-envvars. For some extensions work for some
others not.

I am using config-tool to the extensions that does not work with
ckanext-envvars:

   docker exec -it -u root ckan ckan-paster --plugin=ckan  config-tool
/etc/ckan/default/production.ini "key = value"

where *ckan-paster* is a link inside the container pointing to
/usr/lib/ckan/default/bin/paster
