As stated. I stood up about 8 containers using docker desktop. Eventually I realized Portainer would be more useful and they now have an app for iphone. Once I installed it, portainer has “limited access” to my containers because they were created outside of portainer. Is there a way to fix this or do I have to re-build these in Portainer?
If so, I have a few Docker containers that I need database data from that I really don’t want to lose. Is there a way to back up the data, and then re-create the same container from a backup in Portainer?
Still new to docker.
Dunno if there is a better way, but you could make docker-compose.yml from the existing/running containers: https://www.makeuseof.com/create-docker-compose-files-from-running-docker-containers/ and import those into Portainer.
P.S. I haven’t tried this.
