OK folks, I need some #docker advice for those gurus out there. A boost would be appreciated to get it in front of knowledgeable eyes.
I have a container running postgresql for mastodon. I would like to tweak the conf file for postgresql now that I have things going.
What is the safest way to do this on a running container?
Can I stop the instance with docker stop and then restart it and it will simply see the new postgresql.conf specified in the original docker run command?
I'm getting more comfortable with docker.. but not *that* comfortable, so I'm still worried that if I restart it'll break somehow lol.
I want to make sure I do this right so I don't wreck what appears to be a running and reasonably happy container :)
I'm running docker in a colima virtual machine on macOS.
#mastoAdmin #docker #colima #postgresql
