Docksentry

Settings

Configure how Docksentry checks for, applies, and notifies about updates. Changes here override the corresponding environment variables and persist across restarts.

Per-container auto-update flags, pin/unpin, and the major-confirm toggle live on the Status page — pick which containers get treated which way there.

After every successful auto-update, remove unused images older than 24h.

Save unused locally-built images (no registry digest) as tarballs before deletion. Registry images are skipped — they can be re-pulled.

Run cleanup automatically when the warning threshold is crossed.

Auto-notifications during this window are dropped (manual command replies always go through). Leave both empty to disable.

Weekly summary

Sends a once-a-week digest of updates, failures, rollbacks, and disk usage to all configured channels.

Container Groups

Group containers that should update in a specific order. Auto-updates respect the listed order, with an optional wait between containers (e.g. database first, then app). On failure, remaining containers in the group are skipped.

Add a group below to coordinate updates across multiple containers.

Order matters: the first container in the list is updated first. Use ↑/↓ buttons after creation to reorder.

When the FIRST container in the list (the "head", e.g. Gluetun) gets updated, all other group members are restarted after the head reports healthy. Use for VPN-sidecar / shared-network-namespace setups where dependents lose connectivity when the namespace owner restarts.

Update Windows (per container)

Restrict auto-updates to specific time-of-day and weekday windows. Containers without a window entry update without restriction.

NameRange (HH:MM)WeekdaysActions
No update windows configured.

Leave all unchecked to allow every weekday.

Maintenance Mode

Pause scheduled checks and notifications during host maintenance. Manual updates still work.

Maintenance

Manual one-shot actions. Each runs in the background and reports the result via the configured notification channels.

Image Cleanup removes unused Docker images older than 24h. With Backup local-only enabled, locally-built images are saved as tarballs in /data/cleanup-backups and kept for 7 days. Self-Update pulls the latest Docksentry image and recreates this container.

Bot Token and Chat ID can only be set via environment variables. WEB_PORT and WEB_PASSWORD are also env-only — changing them in a UI you're using right now would lock you out.
