Watchtower
An open-source Docker container auto-update tool that runs as a standalone daemon process, continuously polling and automatically updating the images of all running containers on the host machine.
Timeline (last 90 days)
Watchtower is a tool for automatically updating Docker container images that periodically checks for new image versions and automatically pulls and restarts containers, but automatic updates may introduce incompatible changes, so it is recommended to combine it with a notification mechanism or update critical services manually.
Navige's Watchtower feature is permanently free and most likely plays a monitoring and alerting role.
The complete service stack deployed by the user includes Immich, Pi-hole, Vaultwarden, Tailscale, Cloudflare Tunnel, Jellyfin, Seerr, Prowlarr, Sonarr, Radarr, Bazarr, SABnzbd, Gotify, and Watchtower.
Watchtower continuously polls all running containers as an independent daemon process, differing from the approach of encapsulating update logic within the entrypoint.
