"How to update" options:

• "Container restart"

  This means that the Docker container will auto-update the app on container restart.

  docker stop <name> && docker start <name>
  

  or

  docker restart <name>
  

  Note: It's recommended to use docker stop/start <container> vs docker restart <container>, to prevent corrupting data, especially on apps like ruTorrent.

• "Update within the app"

  You can simply update within the app itself. Changes will persist after docker restarts.

• "Cloudbox update tag"

  See the next section on how to update Cloudbox apps via their Ansible tag.

Apps	Ansible Tags
Plex	plex
PlexPy	plexpy
Sonarr	sonarr
Radarr	radarr
NZBGet	nzbget
ruTorrent	rutorrent
Jackett	jackett
NZB Hydra	nzbhydra

Instructions:

1. Go to ~/cloudbox/

   cd ~/cloudbox
   

2. Run the tag command:

   sudo ansible-playbook cloudbox.yml --tags TAG
   

   Replace TAG with the one below.

   You can also run multiple tags, by placing them next to each other, separated by a comma, without spaces (e.g. --tags TAG1,TAG2).

   Note: If the App is a docker container, running the update tag will rebuild and update the container.

¹ You can also go into the /opt/appname folder and git pull the latest updates. Be sure to restart the service as well.
