I had the honor of writing an article at selfh.st - and as mentioned there a new version has slowly been in the works for a few weeks and is now released!
The release brings the new option -b N (or config BackupForDays=N) which enables backups and removes backups older then N days. The backups will be handled per container image and will be created (by retagging) just before pulling a new version.
This provide an easy way to roll back to previous image if a new update breaks.
It have been a while since I posted any news so here’s the last 6 months in brief:
- Snooze function to notifications.
- Added a function to print what files are sourced.
- Home Assistant notification template added.
- Improved search filtering eg.
dockccheck -yp homer,dozzle. - More advanced control of notifications, multiple notification templates etc.
- Label reworks
- Option
-Rto skip recreation - to allow to only pull updates without applying. - Plus a bunch of bugfixes.
Thanks to this community dockcheck keeps evolving! More features, more control, better handling. I’m so grateful that people give feedback and suggestions and help testing things.
