  • Thank you!

    I sadly don’t have too much insights in the other alternatives, I try to not compare too much - maybe I should study them a bit more to understand the wider picture. There’s a few more I forgot to mention; renovate and dependabot.

    While I think all those tools are great and have functionality that my project cant fulfill - I strive to keep dockcheck simple and lightweight. Options and functionality have been bolted on bit by bit while still trying to have it as simple as possible in its core functions - so a user could just download the main script dockcheck.sh and run it to list updates and optionally update. Everything else is optional, extras.

    I guess it depends on what you’re looking for. If you’d like a GUI or more in depth setup or reporting - I’d look elsewhere, but if you’d like simplicity and maybe schedule it to notify you when there’s updates available - my project may be the thing.

    So my answer would be yes: if you’re running docker compose this project is very newbie friendly and easy to get going!
