Portainer Docker
Install
You must have Docker installed prior to installing Portainer
create the volume that Portainer Server will use to store its database
install portainer CE
docker run -d -p 8000:8000 -p 8443:8443 -p 9443:9443 --name=portainer --restart=always -v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock -v portainer_data:/data portainer/portainer-ee:latest
check to see whether the Portainer Server container has started
Log in https://localhost:9443
Sources: Docker Linux Install CE
Upgrade
docker ps -a
#Locate the ones with name "/portainer"
#0eab77c40087 portainer/portainer-ce "/portainer"
#take first 4 chars of the random string
docker stop 0eab
docker rm 0eab
docker pull portainer/portainer-ce:latest
docker run -d -p 8000:8000 -p 8443:8443 -p 9443:9443 --name=portainer --restart=always -v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock -v portainer_data:/data portainer/portainer-ee:latest
Upgrade Docker Compose v1 to v2
Update your package repositories and install docker-compose-plugin
Check the installation succeeded by retrieving Docker Compose’s version
Now you can remove Docker Compose v1, unless you want to retain it to provide compatibility with legacy scripts. Both docker-compose (v1) and docker compose (v2) can co-exist if you need them to. If you’re removing v1, it’s normally found as a single binary at /usr/local/bin/docker-compose
You could now set up a shell alias to redirect docker-compose to docker compose. This would let you keep using scripts that expect Compose v1, using your new v2 installation
echo 'alias docker-compose="docker compose"' >> ~/.bashrc
source ~/.bashrc
docker-compose version
Docker Compose version v2.3.3
You’re now ready to start managing your containers with Compose v2

Watcher - WatchTower (Auto docker container updates)
Deploy Watchtower
Run Watchtower in debug mode
You might wonder why there is no log output apart from the welcome message. If you want to increase the logging level or watchtower, you simply just add an argument.
docker run --name watchtower -v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock containrrr/watchtower --debug
Run Watchtower only once, in debug mode
docker run --name watchtower -v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock containrrr/watchtower --run-once --debug
