Also, my apologies for mispronouncing Dockge. I've been corrected in another comment that said it should be a bit more like "Dockjay" instead of "Dockage"
Great job! Have any plans for extremely basic cluster management? Literally dockge with more than one host on the left with choice of host to deploy to or delete from.
I really like how you demonstrated the product before installing it. So we can decide if it is something we want to try, before sitting through the installation.
I love that they are showing what is going on. This has always been my biggest problem with portainer, that there is no feedback. I get it, if you run portainer in enterprise, where you are not watching the start of every container, this might be what you want. But while experimenting to find the right compose settings, this is worth so much.
I've tried Portainer a while ago and I hated the fact that it can not manage stack deployed with "notepad". So I did not used Portainer or another tool, but this Dockge ... this is already to another level. Thank you for sharing.
Рік тому+5
I fell like i want to move all of my containers to Dockge right now. Dockge is going straight to the simplicity of deplying containners. Cant wait to deploy Dockge, simplicity is what i was looking for. Tks
This is a game changer! Love the UI, portainer has too much going on… this feels comfortable without giving up functionality. Looking forward to deploying this in my homelab!
This is the simple Docker manager that I've been longing for. I've used Portainer and Yacht previously and have a love-hate relationship with both of them. Dockge looks like a "just enough" project that will check all my boxes for Docker projects. Thanks for the video!
Thank you for this! I just wrecked a portainer setup after an upgrade... had to actually roll back the entire docker VM... This tool looks much better...
Quite like it, had some problems with Portainer and not showing anything realtime really. This seems to fit more my wishes and seems to be modern in a way. Very nice video, thanks!
I agree, better than Portainer, especially the lack of information from Portainer when installing containers. To see a timer on Dockge is great. I have been following you for a couple of years now, just after I bought my first Raspberry Pi, which is the device I installed Dockge. I hope that you will have follow-up videos for installing apps such as WordPress, NextCloud etc.
It’s not often something comes along that makes it into my standard compose stack. That usually has watchtower, Autoheal, uptime kuma and an edge agent. This has made the starting lineup. Louis always releases great stuff and this will be no different. Awesome stuff Dave.
Have given you a like and Louis a star 😉 Really interesting bit of development. I love Uptime Kuma, Louis is excellent. I really liked the bit at the end where it could pick up compose.yaml files created outside Dockge itself, very nice!
Thank you for walking through this and exposing this nifty tool! I've been using ssh and VSCode for a while to manage my compose files and docker, which I like, more so than Portainer. I never got the hang of using Portainer, maybe being a Docker noob, still, it is quite intimidating. It to me comes across as another job application. I do like that while I use VSCode I can at least drag and drop things, for example, adding a Dockge icon to my Dashy dashboard. I suppose using VSCode helps me try and keep my compose files consistent and also consistently formatted, which I like however, Dockge blew my socks off! Dockge streamlines the entire process. I'm actually going through my 10 or so containers and removing them and redeploying them through Dockge because of this video!
The best thing about Uptime Kuma is there is always something new on each update release. With that mindset, I could see it happening with Dockge as well. I would also like to see a direct correlation with Uptime Kuma and Dockge for uptime data and resource metrics. One thing I would want is the ability to store yaml files in one folder and be able to push them to the management area to deploy it later or just have a "Library" to access when needed. It looks great and I plan to deploy and test for a while to see what I think and to see what gets added over time. Awesome video as always!
I've just set this up on a fresh install of ubuntu running on a VM. And WoW this is so cool and really easy to use. Thanks so much for you great guide on setting this up! keep up the good work, i love you channel.
I love that you introduce new and exciting projects, and this love is a gem. I hope it gets the traction it needs to succeed! You help me learn and I appreciate you! ❤
Thanks to introduce what I was looking for after using portainer and yacht : very clean solution. This project will be popular ! Good surprise : french translation is already available.
i can't tell you how many times i thought portainer froze. i love this so far. i'm gonna see if it's in unraid. if it is i'll wait a bit and then install it. thanks for showing us this.
This is like too cool when compared to Portainer. Which in my (humble) opinion can be tiring at times. Watching a spinning ball vs seeing what's going on here is far better. The fact that you don't have to configure networking ...BOOM ! Time saver. I know that this is not in production ...Yet. But I will still be showing this to management at work on Monday. At least for future consideration. To all have a happy and safe Thanksgiving day !
Tried it out, really like it making me actually replace Portainer CE with Dockge to manage my stuff at home. Just a few things running on a small 1L PC and a HP T520 thin client as secondary. There's a beauty in simplicity and for me Dockge delivers. It does exactly what I need, nothing more and nothing less. @LouisLamLam: Thanks for the good work and thanks @DBTechYT for making this video creating awareness...
Love the approach taken on this. I use a git sync’d repo that is then orchestrated on the server by Ansible, and this seems to match that workflow much better than Portainer for maintaining and monitoring (very lightly) the compose stacks that are currently running on the server!
brilliant video, again ! DBTech is top quality and this is really neat project, thanks for covering it. I notice they have done this project in Vue and Typescript, if github is telling me it right, so this is a nice time to start looking at this project and before it becomes greater in complexity. The features you brought out, particularly how this allows for cli configuration from existing compose files is a reason I've not bothered with portainer, so this is really nice to see thanks again
This looks like a pretty cool little app. I really like how it converts a standard docker deployment string into a compose yaml file and saves it. I started out in docker deploying Docker containers through an app called Rancher back before it was so complicated. Which is kinda similar to how Portainer deploys containers. But after I discovered Docker-Compose that was paradigm altering for me. I love Portainer but a glaring problem i discovered recently was that if, for some reason, I had screwed up and lost my compose.yaml files that there was no decent way to get the information from Portainer. So I had to piece together stuff from backups. I had planned on rebuilding that host VM anyway since it was basically an old test vm that kindof ended up being a production vm so it was pretty sloppy. If i'd had Dockge running it could have spit out compose formatted yaml that I could have copy and pasted to backup files and made my life a little easier on the new VM deployment. Another thing, and this is small potatoes but I loved it, is the way Dockge visualizes the image deployment at 7:09. I may have to spin this up just as a failsafe against my own stupidity, lol.
There are/were (have tested this in a while) ways to export your current containers into a docker compose (ua-cam.com/video/-ttZjGBkLL8/v-deo.html) but it's not a great experience
Actually you can find all the compose.yaml files in the following docker folder: “./docker/volumes/portainer_data/_data/compose” There you will find numbered folders which correspond to each stack in portainer and inside you will finde the compose.yaml files. Hope this helps.
Very cool! I'm using portainer currently, and will definitely watch dockge. Once they have a solution that works with swarm I'll give it a real go! Thank you!
Many thanks for this! I was looking for a good docker manage GUI, used Portainer but I had same problem with it like you mentioned. I will have to try this, looks simple yet effective exactly what I am looking for.
I did today deploy Dockge, and I must say I am positively surprised. This is exactly what I was looking for - Simple way to see & manage containers using compose. Fantastic. The only feature I am missing is to be able to stop or restart individual containers in a stack, currently its only possible for a whole stack not individual containers. Still I am going to use Dockge. Louis many thanks to create such awesome projects!
Oh man, I'm so glad this video showed up in my feed! I've been using Portainer and I *HATE* the way it implements the stack, I literally can not use it to do a simple image pull and update of any container, and I've been looking for a replacement for it for months.

I still use Portainer because its web interface makes it easier to navigate around and look at in-depth detail of each container, but Dockge is now used about 90% of the time for me. Keep up the great work, and thanks again!
To remove the ghost entries just click creat new then name it the same as the ghost entry. Then you can delete it. Also, the latest version of dockge handles the line feed \ characters! Thanks for the video!!!
There's quite a few of these projects out there, as a dev, I've been using Caprover and Coolify to deploy my projects. There's just so much, thanks for introducing this one!
This is a great alternative to Portainer and I'll be sure to try it out. Perhaps in a future version, they can add a delete/remove container as well to get rid of the orphans.
Love the layout of the UI, and love how it handles the compose files. Maybe I missed but I don't see a way to manage multiple environments from a single instance. That's one thing I can't live without. So unfortunately I won't be making the switch yet. Looking forward to see where this project goes!
Great video! I wasn't interested until you said it can convert big long docker run to docker compose.yaml and it saves compose.yaml into an actual file and not in database. Because I had issues with portainer where after an update or something stupid I did, and it wouldn't come up. I was scratching my feet to bring my dockers up and stressed out I don't have a backup of the docker compose.yaml. This actually is really nice features. The only thing I need Dockge now is... it would be nice if it can manage organize multiple hosts/VM/LXC env like portainer and portainer agents.
Looks great! You hit the problem with Portainer on the head, so cumbersome needing to many clicks to do specific things. Plus the weird separation between compose.yaml files and their in built stacks. Genius to combine the two. Any reason you can’t run dockge beside Portainer (especially on a production server)? To give it a try before committing?
this is absolutely great, been having to maintain my yml files seperatly and been using portainer, but this is just exactly what I wanted/needed. will submit a request but it would be awesome if they incorporate the ability to manage other instances would be great and hope they do it.
Simple is always better. Love that this product is no BS, straight to the point. Love it!! Any idea when can we expect this to be ready for production?
It would very much be a manual migration process. Also, I think, if I make a video like that, I will wait a while until Dockge has a bit more age to it. Just in case :)
I will check out this dockge further as it is developed. I will also say that chatgpt does a fantastic job at reformatting a docker run command into a docker compose format. At present, it is much better than what dockge does.
Immediately this is replacing Portainer for me. For some reason I always install Portainer on any Docker host I spin up and then I literally never use it for anything other than occasionally stopping and starting containers because it's just easier to poke at the yaml files manually. This looks like something I'd actually use.
Thanks for the great video, i have a question. can I install dockge if I have portainer already installed or will there be a conflict? I have a raspberry pi 4.
there won't be a conflict, but anything you deploy in dockge won't be able to be managed in portainer. And anything you deploy in portainer won't be able to be managed in dockge.
I think it's an excellent application. I have installed it and it works well, it recognizes previous docker-compose installations, but it does not allow you to act on them, I don't know if this will be solved in new updates. Or maybe I have made a mistake? If you have tried it, please confirm that it is so.
Nice video! I'm Wondering if you could do a proper guide on how to create a vpn container in dockge and how to connect other containers to it. I've tried but I ended up with errors or no connection. Great videos and thanks for all the help throughout the years.
Thanks for the idea! I've started messing with it and have it working, but I've run into a snag that I'm reaching out to the Dockge developer to see if he can help me with.
With Portainer you can do gitops and load your docker compose files from a git repository; that way you don't lose your stacks! And of course, just do a backup of your containers data/volumes to prepare for disaster recovery ;)
Nice tool thanks for the review. I would like to know if multi-host docker environments are already possible with dockge. It definetly has some nice usability on its hand and i could imagine switching to it. Sadly i have a raspi-rack with multiple docker services running (so basicly a multi-host situation) in which portainer handles the environments. If dockge can handle that as well i see no reason to not switch.
This question has been asked multiple times. I will encourage you, like I did the others, to put this as a feature request on the github for the project.
would love if they could read the .sh script that I use to launch my Jupyter lab because whenever I try and copy paste the commands into the docker run box it throws an error I can't find
If you use volume commands in the yml does it create the folders you need? I agree that this looks better than portainer. More of what I wanted out of a docker frontend.
Quick question about having my older containers managed by another app before I started using Dockge. How can I start managing those containers with Dockge? I couldn't find any clear remedy for this issue.
I'm not sure if Dockge is actually a replacement for Portainer. Portainer has more options, and I am not sure if I would like to keep those options. I admit, the functionality and simplicity of Dockge is amazing. Maybe it's not a bad idea to run both and see what you like more.
That's a good question. I just ran into this recently myself. I'm not sure there's a way to get an existing container to show up in Dockge, but it might be worth checking out their Github just to be sure (or open a ticket/feature request)
This question has been asked multiple times. As I've told the others, if you want this functionality, you're going to have to put it in as a feature request on their github.
Thank you so much for introducing Dockge to everyone. Great Video!

Looks light on features atm, but I am interested in seeing how a multi-container compose file works and how volumes are configured.
because you deploy with a docker-compose in Dockge, you can deploy multi-container setups super easily

Grabbed dockge and love it. I wish there was an easy way to pull in my existing containers to be managed by it. And maybe there is?
I'm not sure that it can pull existing stuff in. I think it is dependent on the folder and file structure I showed in the video.
Dude this is cool. I'm actually considering switching from Portainer to Dockage now.
I'm a big fan of Dockge and hope they keep developing more features into it
@DBTechYT Finally got around to setting up Dockge. Not gunna lie using Portainer to Deploy Dockge felt a little like using IE to download Chrome haha
😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣
@DBTechYT BTW I would love to see a video on a UT2004 and a Quake 3 arena server in docker!!
Interesting.....if you create a stack folder with the same name as the stack in portainer, you can manage on both dockage and not affect owernship 🤔
I will check out this dockge further as it is developed. I will also say that chatgpt does a fantastic job at reformatting a docker run command into a docker compose format. At present, it is much better than what dockge does.
ChatGPT is great, but that's an extra step that would be involved when Dockge will just do it right in the app
Ok. I'll sick with it. It didn't work right for me when I tried it. I'll let it develop. It looks promising. Thanks.
nice tool. didn't know about it. thanks.
You bet!
Immediately this is replacing Portainer for me. For some reason I always install Portainer on any Docker host I spin up and then I literally never use it for anything other than occasionally stopping and starting containers because it's just easier to poke at the yaml files manually. This looks like something I'd actually use.
In Dockage do you have the option of placing a container in a different ip network from the local host?
At this time, Dockge is meant for a single node, not managing multiple nodes
Thanks for the great video, i have a question. can I install dockge if I have portainer already installed or will there be a conflict? I have a raspberry pi 4.
there won't be a conflict, but anything you deploy in dockge won't be able to be managed in portainer. And anything you deploy in portainer won't be able to be managed in dockge.
@@DBTechYT I see, thank you!
Sorry noob question, how do you open a terminal in the dockge container like at 4:31 ?
I think it's an excellent application.
I have installed it and it works well, it recognizes previous docker-compose installations, but it does not allow you to act on them, I don't know if this will be solved in new updates.
Or maybe I have made a mistake?
If you have tried it, please confirm that it is so.
Uptime kuma ❤❤❤
can this be used with docker swarm or K8s ?
Nice video! I'm Wondering if you could do a proper guide on how to create a vpn container in dockge and how to connect other containers to it. I've tried but I ended up with errors or no connection.
Great videos and thanks for all the help throughout the years.
Thanks for the idea! I've started messing with it and have it working, but I've run into a snag that I'm reaching out to the Dockge developer to see if he can help me with.
With Portainer you can do gitops and load your docker compose files from a git repository; that way you don't lose your stacks! And of course, just do a backup of your containers data/volumes to prepare for disaster recovery ;)
That's true, but not everyone wants to maintain a github repository
Nice tool thanks for the review. I would like to know if multi-host docker environments are already possible with dockge. It definetly has some nice usability on its hand and i could imagine switching to it. Sadly i have a raspi-rack with multiple docker services running (so basicly a multi-host situation) in which portainer handles the environments. If dockge can handle that as well i see no reason to not switch.
This question has been asked multiple times. I will encourage you, like I did the others, to put this as a feature request on the github for the project.
We ball, putting this in my homelab rn
Hell yeah
@@DBTechYTit’s in my homelab “prod” now, absolutely love it! Still some kinks but so far can’t complain 👍
Can we use this as an alternative to docker desktop? (i don't have much information about docker just curious)
would love if they could read the .sh script that I use to launch my Jupyter lab because whenever I try and copy paste the commands into the docker run box it throws an error I can't find
If you use volume commands in the yml does it create the folders you need? I agree that this looks better than portainer. More of what I wanted out of a docker frontend.
As long as your permissions are set up correctly, it will create the folders you need. Shouldn't be an issue
Quick question about having my older containers managed by another app before I started using Dockge. How can I start managing those containers with Dockge? I couldn't find any clear remedy for this issue.
This doesn't, at least at this time, support managing containers that were deployed outside of Dockge.
I'm not sure if Dockge is actually a replacement for Portainer. Portainer has more options, and I am not sure if I would like to keep those options. I admit, the functionality and simplicity of Dockge is amazing. Maybe it's not a bad idea to run both and see what you like more.
It might not be a Portainer replacement for *you* but it may be the perfect solution for LOTS of other people
@@DBTechYT Thanks for your reply, I will install it and have a deeper look into it.
Is there a way to see already running docker containers on my system or is this only valuable to new installs?
That's a good question. I just ran into this recently myself. I'm not sure there's a way to get an existing container to show up in Dockge, but it might be worth checking out their Github just to be sure (or open a ticket/feature request)
Ok I will do that@@DBTechYT
Really slick, definitely going to try it. Can it do remote docker environments like portainer?
This question has been asked multiple times. As I've told the others, if you want this functionality, you're going to have to put it in as a feature request on their github.
@@DBTechYTThanks, I think I will use this & portainer as they both have great features.
