Very happy when I migrated over to dockhand. Fits exactly my needs for a simplistic overview of all of my containers and their resources.
Comment on Portainer 3.0 is coming, and here's what it means for you — Portainer

Dropped portainer years ago. Managing some compose files isn’t hard, and Dockhand is better for managing updates

How does it compare to dockage? I haven’t used either.
girlnamedzero@piefed.zeromedia.vip 2 weeks ago I really like dockge, it’s a very simple and light way to manage and update compose files. Dockhand is a fully featured editor that should have everything you’d need and more, but imo is a little trickier to use

heck yeah!

I dropped Portainer in favor of Dockge a few years ago. Absolutely worth it.
AHorseWithNoNeigh@piefed.social 2 weeks ago
I unfortunately can’t speak to dockage as I have only used Dockhand and Portainer.

I completely forgot portainer was a thing and I’ve used compose files for a few years. If I try anything new a unified dashboard (for managing multiple hosts) would be cool.
ShutUpWesley@piefed.zip 2 weeks ago
Definitely checkout dockhand. It gives a single dashboard for all your hosts. I primarily use it for updating containers and checking logs, but it does quite a bit more. You can even point it towards your compose files and it can edit them in with a GUI, but I haven’t played with that yet.

How do you manage updates? I’ve been relying on watchtower
ShutUpWesley@piefed.zip 2 weeks ago
I used to use watchtower. But then it killed a few services that had pre-update instructions, and I learned my lesson.
It just gives me a GUI to see when a service needs an update, and a button to perform it, then I just backup and read the update notes before I do it.

Do you know if there’s a way to pin to s version but have dockhand tell me if there is a new latest version tagged? Not having a clean rollback method is driving me nuts.
ShutUpWesley@piefed.zip 2 weeks ago
Yeah, version tags work fine. All my containers come from compose, and it follows whatever tags I declared there.

Guess I’ve figured out how I’m going to spend my Friday evening.

Another good option is Arcane. Its project structure gives you a good place to put bind mounts which you can edit the contents of in app (like configs and such). It’s pretty handy. I am in the process of switching to it from komodo for all of my stacks

That’s what I’m going to try out first, looks nice and simple and I just got voidauth working too so oidc support would be nice.
