No kidding! Copy and paste the contents of the previous container to a new directory for the new container, sudo chown -R 1000:1000 /path/to/new/directory, docker pull the new image, and Bob's your uncle. I'm so relieved I didn't have to reconfigure all the *arr integrations and whatnot within the web GUI all over again
I just changed my compose reference to update the volume and base image. Worked a treat.
The jellyseer android app automatically renamed itself to seer the first time I launched the app after upgrading my server. That was an unexpected and pleasant surprise.
yea that would have been a pain indeed! I feared that too, pleasantly surprised now 😁
