SOLVED Is there any way to make a docker container auto-restart after a period of time ?

[The_Panda_Trueno]

Okay so basically I have an app (doplarr from truecharts) that I use.
Doplarr is basically a discord bot, however there is a known issue with this app where it just stops working. The bot is online, but the container is basically dead and stops accepting commands (timeout)

The only solution to this is restarting the container. It's extremely annoying because it does that every hour or so.

Is there any way I can make the container auto-restart each 60-minutes ?

Chart application restart flow

I'm scripting a custom certificate installation for an application running on TNS. After the certificate is installed I need to "restart" the application (PoC: https://gist.github.com/kiler129/39c1330731ba263f15e28c04f154c0f8). After playing with the API I came up with the following flow...

Make a script that does the job you want (from the thread above) and then run that script in a cron task each hour.

Or if you don't feel like messing around with all that... install heavyscript (https://github.com/Heavybullets8/heavy_script) and use that...

heavyscript -r <appname>

just run that in a cron task every hour.

Sorry for my ignorance, but how exactly do I install Heavyscript ?
