Dockheck is a CLI tool to automate docker image updates. Interactively or unattended with notifications, image backups, exclude/include, labels, autoprune and more. Can be run as is, without configuration or with extensive options.
This year my AFK-life have been intense, so development have been slow and mainly squashing bugs. But others have kept contributed with suggestions on improvements, ideas on new features and some ready to merge patches.
So these last couple of weeks I’ve tried to squeeze in some time to bring it together in v0.8.0 and now v0.8.1.
New stuff in short:
Docker Compose -ready:
- Now possible to run dockcheck within its own docker compose container (or docker run).
- Easily set up your notifications and options, either in conf-file or env-vars, then let it run as any other container.
- Optionally run it once interactively with docker run, no need for configs.
- Run interactively between your scheduled compose setup with
docker exec -itas usual.
New options:
-NNo updates or checks; simulating updates to test notifications unconditionally.-EExclude containers from applying updates but check available, separated by comma.-CTemporarily use default configs - override dockcheck.config file.-oHides the “No updates available” message and only shows updateable images.
New notification templates:
- Home Assistant Event Integration
- XMPP
- Bark
I’m very happy this project still got traction considering all the large alternatives around. Wonderful community!

Thanks OP and others (especially @gedaliyah@lemmy.world ) for write-ups and insight!
I recently acquired a Kobo Elipsa 2E and started the journey experimenting. I’ve got a small library of mostly technical study books and ebooks/pdfs and some regular ebooks and comics that Id like to consume, in that order of importance. Set up Calibre-Web-Automated and Komga but not yet integrated with the Kobo in any way, but sure on the workflow.
But something that might be more important is a “read it later” setup of some sort. Currently experimenting with a self hosted Wallabag setup and KOReader. The sync is working fine, downloading the articles. Though I’d love to have a way of syncing highlights/annotations back somehow. And another thing is that images is not included in the KOReader side - so an article referencing a image of a chart for example will lack said image.
Anyone have any tips on their setup? Other alternatives or tweaks/options I might look into.
