FIRST RELEASE!!

The first official release of Podcheck, a CLI tool to automate Podman image updates. Podcheck brings the convenience of automated container updates to the Podman ecosystem, inspired by the original Dockcheck script for Docker.

Key Features:

• Automated Updates for Podman Containers:

  • Automatically check for updates to your Podman containers.
  • Seamlessly apply updates to keep your containers up-to-date.

• Support for Podman Compose:

  • Compatible with podman compose, allowing updates to containers managed via compose files.
  • Handles multiple compose files and environment files effortlessly.

• Quadlet (Systemd Units) Integration:

  • Detects and updates containers managed by Quadlet (systemd units).
  • Restarts units after pulling new images to ensure smooth operation.

• Selective Updates:

  • Exclude Specific Containers: Use the -e option to exclude containers by name.
  • Label-Based Updates: Only update containers with the sudo-kraken.podcheck.update=true label when using the -l option.

Notifications:

• Send notifications after updates using various services.
• Supported platforms include Gotify, ntfy.sh, Telegram, Discord, Pushbullet, Pushover, and more.

Auto-Prune:

• Option to automatically prune dangling images after updates with the -p flag.

Monochrome Mode:

• Use the -m option for monochrome output, improving compatibility with logging systems.

  Timeout Settings:
  Set custom timeouts for registry checks with the -t option (default is 10 seconds).

Acknowledgments:

Podcheck is inspired by the original Dockcheck script by mag37. Without Dockcheck, there wouldn't have been a Podcheck. Many thanks to all the contributors to Dockcheck for their work and inspiration.
