Hi all, I’ve been looking for a solution for keeping track of the versions of my docker containers and when they might need updates. I tried cup and cupdate but I didn’t feel like I had enough granular control of which docker images were showing up and it was tricky to find github release notes for each release.
I found argus which allows more control (indeed, you have to manually configure each service you add) and you essentially scrape github for version numbers and then either scrape your service webpage for a version number or use a service’s api for version.
This works for a lot of services, and I really like it so far. However, I have no idea how to get version numbers for some services like karakeep or actual. My question is: are there hacky ways that I can expose version numbers from my services, or am I shit out of luck if it’s not on the login page or exposed by an API?
Thanks!


Cool, thanks for the rec! Is there an easy way to view release notes? For cupdate and cup i had to open a new tab and go to the release page myself to see if there were breaking changes or whatever. This became annoying with many services
