Typically whenever I want to update a container, I will stop and delete the container, delete the related image, pull the new image and re-create the container. All my data is safely stored on persistent volumes, so the container is updated and all my data is intact.
I understand that, but obviously there is more than one way to update a container. Also, I can’t find an update section linuxserver/phpmyadmin - LinuxServer.io
We only document how we SUPPORT upgrading. While you may be able to do other things, we don’t support it and won’t discuss it here. docs.docker.com has a plethora of information though.
For all your automated docker container updating needs. I believe it only works with compose. But it works great! I configured mine to update all containers every day at 5am. Enjoy!
Please note that we, LSIO, do not support automatic updating of our containers. Just ask all the irresponsible qbittorrent users who automatically update.
