What CLI commands do I need to use in order to check if the image in my private docker registry is a newer version than the one currently running on my server?
E.g.
An older question, but this sounds like a problem that Watchtower can solve for you. It is another dockerized application that runs adjacent to your other containers and periodically check to see if their base images are updated. When they are, it downloads the new image and restarts them.
If given the correct credentials, it can work with a local registry.
