The official docker image is still at v0.11 and was last updated in 2016. It looks like maybe
trunkis at 0.12, but, as far as I can tell, that a rolling release. My prosody install is too important to go with a rolling release.Both the alternatives that they point to are similarly old;
- v0.11.13 — https://github.com/OpusVL/prosody-docker/
- v0.11.x (?) — https://github.com/unclev/prosody-docker-extended
My server is langishing on the unclev image. I’d like to migrate to something with 0.12 and have a bit more confidence in its resiliance.
I rarely use a docker container in production that I didn’t write the Dockerfile for. Once you understand how it works, you can write your own and install exactly what you want in the way you want it.
That would probably the best practice. But as another post said, I don’t trust myself (and I lack the skills, although that’s pretty lame excuse).
Exactly the opposite for me, using official container images is a major time save.
Yeah, they’re much better at updating them than I am.
