Описание: n8n Docker Tutorial

🎥 In this step-by-step tutorial, learn how to install, run, and update n8n using Docker — the right way! Whether you're new to n8n or upgrading from an older version, this guide shows how to:
✅ Upgrade to the latest version while keeping your data
✅ Use Docker volumes for persistent storage
✅ Backup and restore your workflows safely

Step 1: Back up your workflow folder by running the following command in Terminal:
cp -r "/Users/IMPUT FILE LOCATION"
"/Users/IMPUT FILE LOCATION"

Step 2: Stop and remove the old Docker container:
docker stop n8n-container
docker rm n8n-container

Step 3: Pull the latest version of the n8n Docker image:
docker pull n8nio/n8n:latest

Step 4: Start the latest version of n8n using the same data folder:
docker run -d --name n8n-container -p 5678:5678 -v "/Users/IMPUT FILE LOCATION:/home/node/.n8n" n8nio/n8n:latest

Step 5: Open your browser and go to http://localhost:5678 to log in and confirm your workflows are still there.

Optional: To check which version of n8n is currently running inside the container, run:
docker exec -it n8n-container n8n --version
