   It's very inconvenient to update one by one, especially as the number of servers grows.

   How could this be done for people who use a Periphery that's not in docker? Would Periphery gain the ability to run commands (in this case:

   curl -sSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/moghtech/komodo/main/scripts/setup-periphery.py \
     | python3 -

   I'm running Komodo with Docker Compose. I have the compose.yaml in a Git repository (Renovate notifies me about new versions) and added it as a stack. To overcome issues with the periphery container, I've vibecoded the following script and updated the stack config.

   compose_cmd_wrapper = "sh ./redeploy.sh [[COMPOSE_COMMAND]]"
   compose_cmd_wrapper_include = ["up"]

   The script parses stack information and launches a standalone container to execute the command from Komodo. This way, you have access to all Komodo features.

   #!/bin/sh
   set -eu
   
   fail() {
       printf '%s\n' "Komodo redeploy: $*" >&2
       exit 1
   }
   
   docker_local() {
       docker --host unix:///var/run/docker.sock "$@"
   }
   
   # Komodo's [[COMPOSE_COMMAND]] placeholder supplies the command arguments to execute inside the helper.
   [ "$#" -gt 0 ] || fail "No deployment command supplied."
   command -v docker >/dev/null 2>&1 || fail "Docker CLI is required."
   stack_directory=$(pwd -P)
   
   [ -n "${HOSTNAME:-}" ] || fail "Run this script inside the Komodo Periphery container."
   image=$(docker_local container inspect --format '{{.Image}}' "$HOSTNAME") || fail "Cannot inspect Periphery through the local Docker socket."
   project=$(docker_local container inspect --format '{{index .Config.Labels "com.docker.compose.project"}}' "$HOSTNAME")
   service=$(docker_local container inspect --format '{{index .Config.Labels "com.docker.compose.service"}}' "$HOSTNAME")
   [ "$service" = periphery ] || fail "The calling container must be the Compose periphery service."
   [ -n "$image" ] || fail "The calling container has no image ID."
   
   helper_name="${project}-redeploy"
   helper_id=$(docker_local container ls --all --filter "name=^/${helper_name}$" --format '{{.ID}}')
   if [ -n "$helper_id" ]; then
       owner=$(docker_local container inspect --format '{{index .Config.Labels "komodo.self-redeploy"}}' "$helper_id")
       [ "$owner" = true ] || fail "Container $helper_name already exists and does not belong to this script."
       state=$(docker_local container inspect --format '{{.State.Status}}' "$helper_id")
       case "$state" in
           exited|dead) docker_local container rm "$helper_id" >/dev/null ;;
           *) fail "Helper $helper_name is $state; another redeploy may already be in progress." ;;
       esac
   fi
   
   # A separate container survives Periphery being recreated. Omit Compose labels so --remove-orphans cannot remove it, and retain it for logs and exit status.
   helper_id=$(docker_local run --detach --name "$helper_name" --label komodo.self-redeploy=true --label komodo.skip=true --restart no --pull never --entrypoint /bin/sh --mount "type=bind,src=$stack_directory,dst=$stack_directory,readonly" --mount type=bind,src=/var/run/docker.sock,dst=/var/run/docker.sock --workdir "$stack_directory" "$image" -c 'sleep 5; exec "$@"' komodo-redeploy "$@") || fail "Failed to launch the redeploy helper."
   
   printf '%s\n' "Redeploy scheduled in $helper_name ($helper_id). The helper starts Compose in five seconds." "Check completion with: docker logs $helper_name" "Check exit status with: docker inspect --format '{{.State.Status}} {{.State.ExitCode}}' $helper_name"

   I've currently set up an ansible script to handle this but would be great if this was possible in the gui.
