I just has the honors of writing a guest article on selfh.st about my ever so slowly evolving project, dockcheck.

    Thanks for the detailed explanation. Will try to see how it fits my setup when I get a chance, but I have been wanting to move away from Watchtower as it is no longer maintained. Good to know there is an alternative, and from what you describe I like your approach. Having to opt-out of updates in Watchtower never really sat right with me- Watchtower clutter is okay in compose files that actually want something to do with Watchtower…

      Thank you. I hope you can find some usefulness in it. You can also do things by compose labels. As well as dynamically at runtime. Either interactively or as arguments.

      Watchtower as it is no longer maintained

      Not to take away anything from the OP, but there is a fork of Watchtower that is maintained and works a lot better than the OG Watchtower. The original Watchtower would screw up the update fairly regularly. So, if you want to just yolo your updates, that’d be the way to go. If you want a bit more control, DockCheck seems to have that covered. It’s always good to have choices.
