Thank you for posting it again.

DB Tech have made a video about Dockge, he explained my idea so well. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E805XcbTzgY

My previous post have also explained why I made this: https://www.reddit.com/r/selfhosted/comments/17tkq79/dockge_a_fancy_easytouse_selfhosted_docker/

Spun this up last week. Love it. Simple, slick interface and easy to understand principles. Like being able to see what’s going on (or going wrong) as I deploy a stack. I know it’s in as a feature request already, because multi-node would make it the single pane solution for all my docker stuff.

Shout-out to /u/louislamlam it’s a great project!!

looks great

Love how this looks, could definitely see myself moving from Portainer since I don’t use the majority of its features.

Though having to move all my stacks around is a bit of an annoyance. I have them split into their own folders to keep things tidier: Wonder if you could watch multiple folders in this too, rather than moving them all into Dockge’s folders.

I tried this out last and ended up going back to portainer. It’s a problem I could fix, but I didn’t want my services down for that long. All of my services are in 3 different compose files. I started up my stacks using dockge and it put each stack on it’s own network (that it created).

If I put all my containers in one compose file I suppose it would work.

My problem with portainer is that, if I deploy a stack (compose) via docker compose cli, it has limited control inside portainer. Is this the same? Or does this play nicely with compose files deployed outside of it?

I have a folder called /docker-containers where I store all my compose files each on it’s folder, so if I want to run this manager with my already running containers, then I will need to point my current folder as:

home/name/docker-containers=/opt/stacks

is that right?

I will give it a try. I don’t like the fact of Portainer kidnapping my compose files. I want them plaintext on my drive, so I can backup them with regular tools.

this looks great hopefully we can have the widget for Homepage dashboard!

Looks promising but like many others I need the ability to manage multiple hosts. That said I suppose there’s no reason you can’t spin up multiple instances, one on each host.

This is interesting. I’m moving over my server from unraid to a clustered proxmox and was looking for something to handle my containers in a simple way, everyone kept recommending portainer and I hated it since it’s so bloated and somehow still missing features that I actually wanted. I ended starting to develop my own system for this but even more barebones in that it’s just a cli tool that will download all the unraid repos and allow you to search for an application and/or the author and use that to generate a docker compose file for you from those templates. I’m very used to the unraid App Store so it lets me easily keep things similar to how I already have it. It’s a WIP but it works and I just add features as I need them.

If I found this a couple of months ago though then I would have probably used this instead.
