<blockquote>
<p><strong>DO NOTE</strong>: These are shell commands executed with <code>sh</code>, and therefore require the
container to provide the <code>sh</code> executable.</p>
</blockquote>
<p>It is possible to execute <em>pre/post-check</em> and <em>pre/post-update</em> commands
<strong>inside</strong> every container updated by watchtower.</p>
<ul>
<li>The <em>pre-check</em> command is executed for each container prior to every update cycle.</li>
<li>The <em>pre-update</em> command is executed before stopping the container when an update is about to start.</li>
<li>The <em>post-update</em> command is executed after restarting the updated container</li>
<li>The <em>post-check</em> command is executed for each container post every update cycle.</li>
</ul>
<p>This feature is disabled by default. To enable it, you need to set the option
<code>--enable-lifecycle-hooks</code> on the command line, or set the environment variable
<code>WATCHTOWER_LIFECYCLE_HOOKS</code> to <code>true</code>.</p>
<h3 id="specifying_update_commands">Specifying update commands<a class="headerlink" href="#specifying_update_commands" title="Permanent link">&para;</a></h3>
<p>The commands are specified using docker container labels, the following are currently available:</p>
<table>
<thead>
<tr>
<th>Type</th>
<th>Docker Container Label</th>
</tr>
</thead>
<tbody>
<tr>
<td>Pre Check</td>
<td><code>com.centurylinklabs.watchtower.lifecycle.pre-check</code></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Pre Update</td>
<td><code>com.centurylinklabs.watchtower.lifecycle.pre-update</code></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Post Update</td>
<td><code>com.centurylinklabs.watchtower.lifecycle.post-update</code></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Post Check</td>
<td><code>com.centurylinklabs.watchtower.lifecycle.post-check</code></td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
<p>These labels can be declared as instructions in a Dockerfile (with some example .sh files):</p>
<div class="codehilite"><pre><span></span><code><span class="k">LABEL</span> com.centurylinklabs.watchtower.lifecycle.pre-check<span class="o">=</span><span class="s2">&quot;/sync.sh&quot;</span>
<span class="k">LABEL</span> com.centurylinklabs.watchtower.lifecycle.pre-update<span class="o">=</span><span class="s2">&quot;/dump-data.sh&quot;</span>
<span class="k">LABEL</span> com.centurylinklabs.watchtower.lifecycle.post-update<span class="o">=</span><span class="s2">&quot;/restore-data.sh&quot;</span>
<span class="k">LABEL</span> com.centurylinklabs.watchtower.lifecycle.post-check<span class="o">=</span><span class="s2">&quot;/send-heartbeat.sh&quot;</span>
</code></pre></div>
<p>Or be specified as part of the <code>docker run</code> command line:</p>
<div class="codehilite"><pre><span></span><code>docker run -d <span class="se">\</span>
--label<span class="o">=</span>com.centurylinklabs.watchtower.lifecycle.pre-check<span class="o">=</span><span class="s2">&quot;/sync.sh&quot;</span> <span class="se">\</span>
--label<span class="o">=</span>com.centurylinklabs.watchtower.lifecycle.pre-update<span class="o">=</span><span class="s2">&quot;/dump-data.sh&quot;</span> <span class="se">\</span>
--label<span class="o">=</span>com.centurylinklabs.watchtower.lifecycle.post-update<span class="o">=</span><span class="s2">&quot;/restore-data.sh&quot;</span> <span class="se">\</span>
someimage
--label<span class="o">=</span>com.centurylinklabs.watchtower.lifecycle.post-check<span class="o">=</span><span class="s2">&quot;/send-heartbeat.sh&quot;</span> <span class="se">\</span>
</code></pre></div>
<h3 id="timeouts">Timeouts<a class="headerlink" href="#timeouts" title="Permanent link">&para;</a></h3>
<p>The timeout for all lifecycle commands is 60 seconds. After that, a timeout will
occur, forcing Watchtower to continue the update loop.</p>
<h4 id="pre-update_timeouts">Pre-update timeouts<a class="headerlink" href="#pre-update_timeouts" title="Permanent link">&para;</a></h4>
<p>For the <code>pre-update</code> lifecycle command, it is possible to override this timeout to
allow the script to finish before forcefully killing it. This is done by adding the
label <code>com.centurylinklabs.watchtower.lifecycle.pre-update-timeout</code> followed by
the timeout expressed in minutes.</p>
<p>If the label value is explicitly set to <code>0</code>, the timeout will be disabled. </p>
<h3 id="execution_failure">Execution failure<a class="headerlink" href="#execution_failure" title="Permanent link">&para;</a></h3>
<p>The failure of a command to execute, identified by an exit code different than
0, will not prevent watchtower from updating the container. Only an error
log statement containing the exit code will be reported.</p>
