2024 In Review
compose-updater (python, api-service) – a project for updating the version of a docker image from CI in a closed infrastructure. I didn't find anything ready to solve this task. There is watchtower, but it's more about keeping up-to-date docker images, rather than updating a specific one, and also I couldn't run it with ECR repos – the author made a super minimalist image in which I couldn't enter through sh to debug. The second alternative is umputun/updater, but it's more about running different shell commands through a webhook. I chose Python because I didn't find a Rust crate for Docker API (most likely it exists, I just didn't understand which one is really good). Score: – (I didn't promote the project anywhere, I use it for my own purposes for now).

5 DevOps Hacktoberfest Projects to Contribute to!
WatchTower is one of my favorite projects because it is super useful, and it was also my start in DevOps. WatchTower is a containerized application that monitors your running containers, and will automatically update your images when a newer version is available. Pretty simple, but super useful if you want to run your own infrastructure. Awesome learning experience, and it has over 18k stars!

Self-Hosting Next.js
Interesting- my first time reading about Kamal. I personally used watchtower (https://github.com/containrrr/watchtower) to check for and deploy container updates from the GitHub Container Registry and push new images there from Actions. I also used OpenTofu to automate the VPS provisioning in GH Actions.

A single server can go a long way these days
For a single server I’d rather have one config management system - Chef/Ansible/… - and just have that set up docker & nginx, rather than have config management set up Kubernetes, and then also need to write Kubernetes manifest YAML files in addition to my config management thingies.
On my home server I use Chef. I have a recipe for each service that sets up a docker container plus an NGINX config that does the TLS and port mapping stuff. To handle container updates I run Watchtower (https://containrrr.dev/watchtower/) which pulls and then restarts my containers when I send a POST.
Deploys are super easy, just docker build, docker push, curl -h $DEPLOY_TOKEN $DEPLOY_URL.
don’t need anything complicated for rollback, just retag and curl again.

> if you're using the docker image, upgrades are a breeze. Just bump the tag on the image, redeploy, and you're done.
Or you could just run Watchtower beside it and it will automatically update your docker containers. https://github.com/containrrr/watchtower If you are OK with automated updates.
