Someone recommended it for keeping my containers up to date automatically. I checked out the repo and it seems too good to be true. It just updates your containers when a new image is available and everything just works out of the box? I’m a bit scared of just leaving it alone in case it might break something. The fact that it doesn’t come with a gui also scares me a bit.
Does anyone here use it and can recommend it? Any horror stories?
I don’t know if maybe I’m using watchtower wrong but i don’t like how it behaves by default. It’s always messing up my container names, not removing old containers and just spinning up new ones, etc and there’s no interface so I can’t view jobs that ran overnight, or see what’s queued or in progress. It just does it’s own thing and I really don’t like that. I’ve installed and un-installed it a few times and it’s been un-installed for a while now. I just redeploy my portainer stacks and pull down the latest image manually when I want to upgrade my containers now. At least I get some control
