Docker image: best practice for updating Duplicati

[TOMillr]

What’s the suggested way for updating the official Docker image? Does Duplicati automatically update to a new release inside of the container? Or do you have to initiate a pull-command to force an update?

I just asked essentially the same question here:

Updating Duplicati on Synology NAS (Container Manager)

Hi guys, I have a Synology DS220+ NAS with DSM 7.2.2. I installed Duplicati 1-2 years ago by following the instructions here: Container Manager shows “latest” version. But Duplicati is still version 2.0.8.1_beta_2024-05-07 It shows a red error message when loggin into Duplicati: Manual update required Manual update found: https://duplicati.com/download I’m not sure how to update to the latest version (which I don’t even know what version it could be for Synology-users). Do you have any ad…

Duplicati does not update itself inside the Docker container. For Docker, the recommended upgrade path is simply to pull the latest image and restart the container.

I have answered that as well, but they are a bit different as this question is about the Docker image that Duplicati Inc provides, and your question is about the Docker image that LinuxServer provides.
