Dropped portainer years ago. Managing some compose files isn't hard, and Dockhand is better for managing updates
I completely forgot portainer was a thing and I've used compose files for a few years. If I try anything new a unified dashboard (for managing multiple hosts) would be cool.
Definitely checkout dockhand. It gives a single dashboard for all your hosts. I primarily use it for updating containers and checking logs, but it does quite a bit more. You can even point it towards your compose files and it can edit them in with a GUI, but I haven't played with that yet.
Portainer has worked well for me but it has so much that I don't need or use. It looks like Dockhand has a Home Assistant integration which is nice, so I'll check that out thanks for the rec.
Man, I didn't even know dockhand had a HA integration, I know what I'm doing when I get home.
Very happy when I migrated over to dockhand. Fits exactly my needs for a simplistic overview of all of my containers and their resources.
How does it compare to dockage? I haven't used either.
I really like dockge, it’s a very simple and light way to manage and update compose files. Dockhand is a fully featured editor that should have everything you’d need and more, but imo is a little trickier to use
I unfortunately can't speak to dockage as I have only used Dockhand and Portainer.
Another good option is Arcane. Its project structure gives you a good place to put bind mounts which you can edit the contents of in app (like configs and such). It's pretty handy. I am in the process of switching to it from komodo for all of my stacks
Guess I’ve figured out how I’m going to spend my Friday evening.
