How do y’all manage all these Docker compose apps?
First I installed Jellyfin natively on Debian, which was nice because everything just worked with the normal package manager and systemd.
Then, Navidrome wasn’t in the repos, but it’s a simple Go binary and provides a systemd unit file, so that was not so bad just downloading a new binary every now and then.
Then… Immich came… and forced me to use Docker compose… :|
Now I’m looking at Frigate… and it also requires Docker compose… :|
Looking through the docs, looks like Jellyfin, Navidrome, Immich, and Frigate all require/support Docker compose…
At this point, I’m wondering if I should switch everything to Docker compose so I can keep everything straight.
But, how do folks manage this mess? Is there an analogue to apt update, apt upgrade, systemctl restart, journalctl for all these Docker compose apps? Or do I have to individually manage each app? I guess I could write a bash script… but… is this what other people do?
Can Dockge manage/cleanup unused images and containers by now? That’s the only reason I keep using Portainer - because it can show all the other stuff and lets me free up space.
No, not through the dockge UI. You can do it manually with standard docker commands (I have a cron task for this) but if you want to visualize things, dockge won’t do that (yet?).
