Well, I’m about as command-line as they come, and the nice thing about the dashboard is that it runs an ansible script that does a whole bunch of stuff that people are likely to forget like doing a cleanup when disk gets tight, noticing that it’s time for a postgres upgrade (or in this case to just do a simple rebuild as opposed to a full version rebuild which takes a couple of rebuilds). It even shuts down the web container, rebuilds data, then starts up the web container before it goes on to doing the bootstrap.
Oh! And it knows about some plugins that are deprecated or moved to core, and removes those automatically.
But if you really like doing extra work and just mindlessly staring and computers do things (like I do), you can log in at the command line while it’s doing the upgrade and do a
docker logs -f container-name
to watch it do the bootstrap. If you tab twice for the container name, you’ll see the silly random name that docker assigns.
Cheers
