I have Immich Server Version: v1.115.0. They’re up to v1.129.0. I am guessing there have been lots of breaking changes in that range, since that was true the last time I updated.

Is there a safe way now to update without making me read all the release notes and carefully craft my docker compose file in multiple steps to make sure I don’t lose anything in the process of getting caught up?

Thanks for any tips.

ETA: Or just, how do you handle your Immich (in Docker) updates in general?

2ND EDIT: I did read the release notes. After a lot of reading, there was 1 change (updating their internal Port # for the main service to 2283) It’s done. Thanks y’all. My cats appreciate you all.

    That first part is why I still maintain my Google Photos account. I have most of it on Immich at this point, but given that’s still in active development, I like having options.

      I treat Immich like a frontend. I have photos in Nextcloud, plus local and remote backup (1 2 3 style). Then Immich is set to absorb the photos from Nextcloud, and the photos are exposed read-only to Immich so it can’t damage anything.
