Thanks for the tips.
I've found that the crontab above does not always work because there are cases where the container just vanishes so a docker restart would do nothing.
So I changed the cron like this:
0 */2 * * * docker ps | grep feed && docker restart feed
*/5 * * * * docker ps | grep feed || (cd /opt/steemfeed-js && docker run -itd --rm --name feed steemfeed-js)
I do the same, but it stresses me out when I wake up in the morning and see a Gina bot message saying my feed did not update for two hours some time during the night...
Really helpful informations for newbies, it's a little too complex for non tech savvy people so this is a good heap of information, thanks for sharing!
There's tons and tons of helpful information on becoming a witness on here. Be careful though some of them are not up to date or are not complete. The witnesses and DEVS are constantly updating it to make it almost fool proof. Some basic knowledge will however go a long way here @kryptokayden.
Thanks for the advice, I'm not planning on running a witness anytime soon, i just want to understand it's relevance and who i should give my votes for.

True. The docker container may crash sometimes. However, I monitor my servers and processes daily, so if anything goes wrong I fix it :)

It's fine, you only need to publish a price feed once per 24h. I do mine every 6h, less than that is overkill.
Ah right
Excellent tips. Greatly appreciated.
Thanks alot for the help in steemchat and this wonderfull fix
