# dbarena v0.3.0 Release Notes
2+
3+
**Release Date:** January 25, 2026
4+
**Codename:** Performance, Snapshots, and Volumes
5+
6+
## 🎉 Overview
7+
8+
dbarena v0.3.0 introduces three major feature sets that significantly enhance database container management: real-time performance monitoring with an interactive TUI, container snapshots for state preservation, and comprehensive volume management for data persistence.
9+
10+
This release adds 3,444 lines of new code across 30 files while maintaining 100% backwards compatibility with v0.2.1.
11+
12+
## ✨ New Features
13+
14+
### 1. Performance Monitoring 📊
15+
16+
Real-time container metrics collection and visualization powered by Docker stats API.
17+
18+
**Features:**
19+
- **Real-time metrics collection**: CPU, memory, network I/O, and block I/O
20+
- **Interactive TUI**: Beautiful terminal UI with charts, gauges, and live updates (powered by Ratatui)
21+
- **Multiple output modes**:
22+
- Simple text output for quick checks
23+
- Live updates with `--follow` (refresh every 2s)
24+
- Interactive TUI with `--tui` (charts, gauges, keyboard controls)
25+
- JSON output with `--json` for scripting
26+
- **Multi-container monitoring**: Monitor all containers with `--all` flag
27+
- **Rate calculations**: Automatic calculation of bytes/sec for network and disk I/O
28+
29+
**Commands:**
30+
```bash
31+
# One-time stats
32+
dbarena stats <container>
33+
34+
# Live text updates
35+
dbarena stats <container> --follow
36+
37+
# Interactive TUI dashboard
38+
dbarena stats <container> --tui
39+
40+
# All containers in JSON
41+
dbarena stats --all --json
42+
```
43+
44+
**TUI Features:**
45+
- Real-time CPU and memory gauges with color-coded thresholds
46+
- 60-second history charts (sparklines) for CPU and memory
47+
- Network I/O statistics with rates
48+
- Block I/O statistics with rates
49+
- Keyboard controls: q (quit), f (freeze), r (reset), h (help)
50+
51+
### 2. Container Snapshots 📸
52+
53+
Save and restore container state as Docker images with metadata.
54+
55+
**Features:**
56+
- **Create snapshots** from running containers (auto-pause supported)
57+
- **Restore containers** from snapshots with custom names and ports
58+
- **Snapshot metadata**: Labels, timestamps, messages, database type
59+
- **Full lifecycle management**: create, list, restore, delete, inspect
60+
- **Docker integration**: Uses Docker commit API with proper labeling
61+
62+
**Commands:**
63+
```bash
64+
# Create snapshot
65+
dbarena snapshot create <container> --name <snapshot-name> \
66+
--message "Description"
67+
68+
# List all snapshots
69+
dbarena snapshot list [--json]
70+
71+
# Restore to new container
72+
dbarena snapshot restore <snapshot> --name <new-name> --port <port>
73+
74+
# Delete snapshot
75+
dbarena snapshot delete <snapshot> [--yes]
76+
77+
# Inspect details
78+
dbarena snapshot inspect <snapshot> [--json]
79+
```
80+
81+
**Use Cases:**
82+
- Save database state before migrations
83+
- Create testing environments from production snapshots
84+
- Backup container state at specific points in time
85+
- Quick rollback to known-good states
86+
87+
### 3. Volume Management 💾
88+
89+
Comprehensive volume lifecycle management for data persistence.
90+
91+
**Features:**
92+
- **Named volumes**: Docker-managed volumes with automatic cleanup
93+
- **Bind mounts**: Host directory mounts for local development
94+
- **Volume CRUD**: Complete create, read, update, delete operations
95+
- **Label filtering**: Only show dbarena-managed volumes by default
96+
- **Integration**: Volume specifications in container config
97+
98+
**Commands:**
99+
```bash
100+
# Create volume
101+
dbarena volume create <name> [--mount-path <path>]
102+
103+
# List volumes (dbarena-managed only by default)
104+
dbarena volume list [--all] [--json]
105+
106+
# Delete volume
107+
dbarena volume delete <name> [--force] [--yes]
108+
109+
# Inspect details
110+
dbarena volume inspect <name> [--json]
111+
```
112+
113+
**Configuration Support:**
