This video is a tutorial on how to install watchtower and use it to automatically update docker containers. Here are a couple of links to get you started.....
(my github page)
(1:53) For starters, make sure that your docker containers are setup correctly to where they can be updated without losing your configuration.
(3:39) Now we are ready to install watchtower in docker....
sudo vi docker-compose.yaml
watchtower:
container_name: watchtower
restart: always
image: containrrr/watchtower
environment:
- WATCHTOWER_NOTIFICATIONS=email
- WATCHTOWER_NOTIFICATION_EMAIL_FROM=me@server.com
- WATCHTOWER_NOTIFICATION_EMAIL_TO=them@server.com
- WATCHTOWER_NOTIFICATION_EMAIL_SERVER=email.server
- WATCHTOWER_NOTIFICATION_EMAIL_SERVER_USER=user
- WATCHTOWER_NOTIFICATION_EMAIL_SERVER_PASSWORD=
volumes:
- /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock
command: --debug true --cleanup true portainer adb tasmoadmin
Once you have all that in there, save the file and
sudo docker-compose up -d
Once its installed you can jump over to portainer to check it out. You should be good to go at this point, it will automatically update the containers as new images come available.
