Docker compose pull; docker compose down;docker compose up -d
Pulls an update for the container, stops the container and then restarts it in the background. I’ve been told that you don’t need to bring it down, but I do it so that even if there isn’t an update, it still restarts the container.
You need to do it in each container’s folder, but it’s pretty easy to set an alias and just walk your running containers, or just script that process for each directory. If you’re smarter than I am, you could get the list from running containers (docker ps), but I didn’t name my service folders the same as the service name.

What commands do you have to run after you update
docker-compose.ymlor.envfiles? I updated one of those files once bad things happened… I haven’t had to update the configs in a long time.Passerby6497@lemmy.world 5 weeks ago
I usually just do
As I would with any service restart. The up -d command is supposed to reload it as well, but I prefer knowing for certain that the service restarted.
Out of curiosity, what did you update and what broke? I had that happen a lot when I was first getting started with docker, and is part of how I learned. Once you have a basic template (or have dec supplies example files), it makes spinning up new services less of a hassle.
Though I still get yelled at about the version entry in my fines because I haven’t touched mine in forever

My breakage happened a while ago, so I don’t quite remember all of the details…
but what I think happened was I updated
/etc/immich/.env. I updated the path forDB_DATA_LOCATIONand/orUPLOAD_LOCATIONand then I randocker compose up -dI think. But nothing changed…
