Tugtainer is a self-hosted web application for automating Docker container image updates, with a web UI, per-container configuration, and multi-host support via agents. It is written in Python with an Angular frontend and distributed as a Docker image.

Use cases

  • automatically update docker containers when new images are released
  • watchtower alternative with a web dashboard
  • monitor container image updates across multiple docker hosts
  • schedule container update checks with crontab
  • get notified when containers are outdated
  • manage and inspect containers from a self-hosted ui
  • auto-update homelab docker services

When to choose

  • you run a homelab or self-hosted stack and want automated container updates with a UI
  • you need per-container control over check-only vs auto-update behavior
  • you manage containers across multiple hosts or private registries
  • you want notifications about outdated images via many services

When to avoid

  • you need battle-tested tooling for production clusters - the project explicitly warns against production use
  • you use Kubernetes or non-Docker runtimes
  • you prefer declarative GitOps-style updates rather than a web UI
