how are you supposed to update this thing?

I don't know!

Maybe should just go with in-place updates.

• Embedded database simply needs to be compatible, write tests into pawl.
  • rollback functionality could be desirable
• Only need infra in place to deliver notifications
  • know 'my' version
  • check a specified git repo (github by default)
  • notify

So step one is using volumes appropriately,
--mount type=bind,source="/home/docker/ratchet/ratchet_db.redb",target=/ratchet/ratchet_db.redb

and so the database can be persisted outside of the container, a common design intent of container orchestration frameworks, to make the state of the service independent of the state of the software.
