### How to automatically restart every X hours?

This image does not come with an automated way to periodically restart.
Though this should be easy enough to setup using a *cronjob*, like
`0 */6 * * * YourDockerUser cd /path/to/docker/compose/file && docker compose restart`
Depending on your OS, the command might be `docker-compose` instead of `docker compose`.
Needs different time or interval but lacking knowledge of cron? Check [crontab.guru](https://crontab.guru/)

### Which Docker image? `main` or `latest`?

Images tagged as `latest` are **tested and known to work.**
