how to update a running instance? #60

Closed kurti500 closed 1 year ago

kurti500 commented 1 year ago

Not an issue at all, but I am wondering how to benefit from the enhancements and changes/improvements of this project on a running instance of it? Just cloning the project again with git clone https://github.com/dadatuputi/bitwarden_gcloud.git plus updating .env and docker-compose.yml manually if required and doing another docker-compose up -d? Will that work and be enough or is there more to be considered? Thanks for your support and comments/advice.

That's a good question, and probably deserves a wiki article at some point.

You should be able to simply pull the changes and update your copy of .env. If it has been some time, it might be worth copying .env.template again and migrating changes from your old .env to the new copy.

docker-compose.yml shouldn't have any customized parts, so no need to change anything in that file after you've pulled the latest changes.

I believe that will get you up to date. If you have issues, look at the docker logs and that will tell you a lot.
