Install Portainer

If you want to get going quickly with portainer use this. Better option is to use docker compose.

docker run -d -p 9000:9000 -p 8000:8000 --name portainer --restart always -v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock -v /mnt/docker/portainer:/data portainer/portainer

Get started with docker compose

https://docs.docker.com/compose/gettingstarted/

mk dir container1
cd container1
touch docker-compose.yml
nano docker-compose.yml
##paste in a docker compose yml of your favorite container and edit the variables correctly, save
##stay in the directory and run
docker-compose up
##navigate to portainer or go directly to you the newly created container

Update Via Docker Compose

Update all images: docker-compose pull
or update a single image: docker-compose pull radarr
Let compose update all containers as necessary: docker-compose up -d
or update a single container: docker-compose up -d radarr
You can also remove the old dangling images: docker image prune
