Hello everyone, I am on internship in a company, and I installed TIG using docker on a VM.  
I don’t stay long in the company and I make them a developer guide and I wanted to know if there was a command (ubuntu) that would update influxdb or grafana for example if necessary.

Just use the same commands you would use for updating anything on an Ubuntu  
system - apt, aptitude, synaptic etc.

Hi @Mayelle26,  
If you are running InfluxDB locally then @Pooh answer will work perfectly. If you have deployed via containers with something like docker-compose then I highly recommend checking out Watchtower: [Docker](https://hub.docker.com/r/containrrr/watchtower/)

this should help look out for image updates and gracefully update them
