Update to new version using docker

[dimedime]

Is there something like an update-button or 'signal' that a new version of zwave-js-ui is available? I have 8.02 running and saw that version 8.2.1 is already there.

But more important, how to update? I'm running the ui on a PI with docker. As a no-know, it took a lot of effort to have it running. For me the documentation was not always clear (have totally no experience with docker), but at the end the sun was shining 🥇
I'm a little hesitating to move to the new version, did some search on the forum about updating, but couldn't find a similar question. Is it an idea to have something written on how to update?

Giving that there are so many different ways to install this application there are also many different ways to update it. Some of this methods like snap and Home Assistant addons can use their platform to update the package.

In your case it's quite easy to do the update using docker. If you have a docker-compose.yml file and the zwave-js-ui image tag is latest you only have to run:

docker-compose pull  && docker-compose up -d

Thanks for the quick reply!
I gave it a shot and got an error. It's not starting up anymore. Has it something to do with the warn-message?

Thanks! It works.
I was already trying to figure out how to get my former docker image version running. Learned a lot about docker ;-)

Again thanks!
