how to get docker-compose to use the latest image from repository

by

in order to make sure, that you are using the latest version for your :latest tag from your registry (e.g. docker hub) you need to also pull the latest tag again. in case it changed, the diff will be downloaded and started when you docker-compose up again.

so this would be the way to go:

docker-compose stop
docker-compose rm -f
docker-compose pull   
docker-compose up -d

i glued this into an image that i run to start docker-compose and make sure images stay up-to-date: https://hub.docker.com/r/stephanlindauer/docker-compose-updater/
