Upgrading Plausible Analytics to v1.5

In your docker-compose.yml update the image used for plausible to tag 1.5.0-rc.0:

plausible:
- image: plausible/analytics:v1.4
+ image: plausible/analytics:1.5.0-rc.0

Restart the container

$ docker compose stop plausible
$ docker compose rm plausible
$ docker compose up -d

This will boot up the new version of the app.

plausible_events_db:
- image: yandex/clickhouse-server:21.3.2.5
+ image: clickhouse/clickhouse-server:22.6-alpine

Restart the container

$ docker compose stop plausible plausible_events_db
