Did you try docker compose? Compose makes it easy. You declare everything in a yml config. It's very udobno.

Compose is built in default docker these days

Compose is a godsend, no idea why it's not more widely used.

Docker buildx bake is pretty sweet too if you're trying to do a complicated build process.

I feel like docker is one of those things you learn enough to do what you need to do, not a lot more.

You'll like it once you get the hang of it. Maybe 3-6 months later when you go pro you'll hate it again. But overall it's a good thing.

PS: Portainer might also be worth a quick look

@retoor I'm trying that. I don't have much free time on my day, so I mostly looking for tutorials instead of reading the docs directly, and most tutorials are not working out for me, so it has been a pretty confusing experience.

@molaram I hope so lol. More jobs are asking for this, so I don't really have a choice.

@kinu Read the bloody doc, at least the Docker one is well written. Remember that some of us have to deal with AWS which has remotely no docs at all so enjoy it when you have a tool that has it well written.

@kinu portainer was a nice tool once when it was just a small program. It's cool for existing open source software, much templates but less for deploying your own afaik. Compose command like is easiest to learn. You only have up (-d), down, start & stop as commands

I'm trying to learn how to work with this f thing, and I've spent hours just troubleshooting, looking up on google how to do one simple task and I have yet to find a solution on this messed up, convoluted way of running a god damn project.
