Does Easy Engine update the docker containers?

Does Easy Engine update the Docker container versions as well as part of the update (ee cli update) or is that something that has to be done manually?

For example, if there is a new version of PHP, will the docker container update automatically to the newest version or will I have to go into the shell of each container and perform the update? (ee shell example.com --service=php)

Thank you in advance for your assistance

Containers are managed, updated and maintained by EasyEngine and are updated as a part of ee cli update. If there are any security fixes, bugs etc., the containers are updated.

if there is a new version of PHP, will the docker container update automatically to the newest version

EasyEngine will keep you at the latest/last stable version of the PHP version you’re using. For example if you’re using PHP 7.2, ee cli update will keep your container with the latest PHP 7.2.x version.

To upgrade/change PHP versions, ee site update will facilitate you. It is currently under development. Once fully developed you’ll be able to update PHP version as shown here.
