Upgrading

Tracearr uses the latest Docker image tag by default, so upgrading is straightforward — pull the new image and recreate the container.

TimescaleDB and Redis are persisted in a volume, so your database and configuration will be preserved during the upgrade process.

Docker Compose

This guide assumes you followed the Quick Start instructions to set up Tracearr with Docker Compose.

From the directory containing your docker-compose.pg18.yml file, run:

docker compose -f docker-compose.pg18.yml pull tracearr
docker compose -f docker-compose.pg18.yml up -d

This will:

  1. Download the latest Tracearr image
  2. Recreate the container with the new image
  3. Preserve your database and configuration

If you are using a different compose file, make sure to update the commands accordingly.

Cleaning Up Old Images

After upgrading, you can remove unused images to free up disk space:

docker image prune

Make sure to review the images being removed before confirming, as this will delete all dangling images.
