Beginners help needed

Hey! I'm trying to setup What's up docker. I'm running Portainer with a couple of stacks and got Wud up and running but it mainly finds digests. I have the MQTT and HA integration going and as you can see the installed version is "stable".

1. How do I get the version numbers going?
2. Do I use the docker or docker compose trigger to auto update?
3. How do I find what versioning number the image is using? Most of my stacks uses latest or stable.
4. Will I be able to use the update sensor in HA to actually trigger the update?

Here's my frigate stack.

version: "3.9"
services:
  frigate:
    container_name: frigate
    network_mode: host
    privileged: true
    restart: unless-stopped
    image: ghcr.io/blakeblackshear/frigate:stable
    .....
    labels:
      - 'wud.tag.include=^\d+\.\d+\.\d+.*$'

Wud stack

version: '3'
services:
  whatsupdocker:
    image: fmartinou/whats-up-docker
    container_name: wud
    restart: unless-stopped 
    volumes:
      - /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock
      - /opt/whatsupdocker:/store
    ports:
      - 3000:3000
    environment:
      - TZ=Europe/Stockholm
      - WUD_REGISTRY_HUB_LOGIN=secretuser
      - WUD_REGISTRY_HUB_PASSWORD=secretpassword
      - WUD_REGISTRY_LSCR_TOKEN=secrettoken
      - WUD_REGISTRY_GHCR_TOKEN=secrettoken
      - WUD_TRIGGER_MQTT_{trigger_name}_HASS_ENABLED=true
      - WUD_TRIGGER_MQTT_{trigger_name}_URL=mqtt://10.0.50.50:1883
      - WUD_TRIGGER_MQTT_{trigger_name}_HASS_PREFIX=docker      
      - WUD_TRIGGER_MQTT_{trigger_name}_USER=secretuser
      - WUD_TRIGGER_MQTT_{trigger_name}_PASSWORD=secretpassword
    labels:
        - 'wud.tag.include=^([0-9]\d*)\.([0-9]\d*)\.([0-9]\d*)$$'   

Sorry if these are very basic questions. I've tried going trough the documentation a couple of times and reading some github issues and the Home Assistant forum post but I can't get this right in my head.

Hi,

How do I get the version numbers going?

How do I find what versioning number the image is using? Most of my stacks uses latest or stable.

First of all, you need to use immutable versions instead of mutable versions (as stable is). For example, for frigate, use ghcr.io/blakeblackshear/frigate:stable:0.13.2

Then, put a label to the frigate container so wud is aware about the tag format to look for.

    labels:
      - 'wud.tag.include=^\d+\.\d+\.\d+$$'

Do I use the docker or docker compose trigger to auto update?

Both are updating Docker containers using the Docker socket or http api.

The docker-compose trigger, additionally, updates the docker-compose.yml file to keep it sync.

So if you maintain docker-compose.yml files, go for the docker-compose trigger.
