Updating Kavita
Remember to use the new Docker Central Repo! (opens in a new tab) The old repo kizaing/kavita is no longer supported!
If you are updating from a really old version, you need to upgrade every 2 versions at a time. Doing otherwise you risk having to restart with a fresh database!
If you are on 0.7.6+ you can update directly to 0.7.14, otherwise, you need to update incrementally to prevent data loss (v0.5.6 > v0.7.1.4 > v0.7.3.1 > v0.7.6 > v0.7.14)
As long as Kavita is in a 'stack' then updating is simple:
Step 1
Go to your stacks on the left sidenav of portainer
Step 2
Go into your Kavita stack in the main listing of available stacks.
Step 3
Go to the editor tab
Step 4
Go straight to the 'Update the stack' Button and click it. When the dialog box comes up asking "Are you sure?", check the box "Re-pull image and redeploy"
Clean up
Don't forget to remove any orphaned images in the 'Images' tab so they don't keep taking up space.
