At this point, I’ve got a lot of containers already running on my system, all in separate directories in my home directory. They’re each set up with a docker-compose file, and all of the volumes are just directories within those directories.
I don’t really want to change this setup, because it allows me to easily rip it all out and transplant it to a new system.
What I’d like is a web UI to see all of these containers, view their status, and potentially reboot them. It would also be great to be able to spin up VMs (not containers, but actual VMs) with it.
I’ve heard of Portainer, but haven’t had any experience with it.
What are your suggestions, and why do you recommend them?
Dockge or Portainer are both good options.
For VMs you’ll need to find something else, you could use Cockpit for that.
Thanks for mentioning Dockge, hadn’t heard of it yet. Already use portainer but it seems a bit overkill for me and my few containers. Will try Dockge.
Do they work with podman? Or anything for podman?
