How to Update

If you are upgrading from v1.0.x, also review the https://github.com/madiele/vod2pod-rss/releases/tag/v1.1.0.

Older configurations will continue to work, but you may be carrying around unnecessary Docker images and dependencies that can consume several GB of disk space.

sudo docker compose pull
sudo docker compose up -d --remove-orphans
sudo docker system prune -a

docker system prune -a removes unused images left behind after upgrading.
