⚠️ Deprecation Notice: This project and repository is now deprecated and is no longer under active development. Please use compose-go instead.

libcompose

A Go library for Docker Compose. It does everything the command-line tool does, but from within Go -- read Compose files, start them, scale them, etc.

Note: This is not really maintained anymore — the reason are diverse but mainly lack of time from the maintainers

The current state is the following :

The libcompose CLI should considered abandonned. The v2 parsing is incomplete and v3 parsing is missing.
The official compose Go parser implementation is on docker/cli but only support v3 version of the compose format.

What is the work that is needed:

Remove the cli code (thus removing dependencies to docker/cli )
Clearer separation of packages : parsing, conversion (to docker api or swarm api), execution (Up, Down, … behaviors)
Add support for all compose format version (v1, v2.x, v3.x)
Switch to either golang/dep or go mod for dependencies (removing the vendor folder)
(bonus) extract the docker/cli code here and vendor this library into docker/cli.

If you are interested to work on libcompose, feel free to ping me (over twitter @vdemeest), I'll definitely do code reviews and help as much as I can 😉.

Note: This is experimental and not intended to replace the Docker Compose command-line tool. If you're looking to use Compose, head over to the Compose installation instructions to get started with it.

Here is a list of known project that uses libcompose:

rancher-compose and rancher os (by Rancher)
openshift (by Red Hat)
henge (by Red Hat) [Deprecated in favour of kompose]
kompose (by skippbox)
compose2kube (by kelseyhightower)
amazon-ecs-cli (by Amazon AWS)
libkermit (by vdemeester)

Usage

package main

import (
	"log"

	"golang.org/x/net/context"

	"github.com/docker/libcompose/docker"
	"github.com/docker/libcompose/docker/ctx"
	"github.com/docker/libcompose/project"
	"github.com/docker/libcompose/project/options"
)

func main() {
	project, err := docker.NewProject(&ctx.Context{
		Context: project.Context{
			ComposeFiles: []string{"docker-compose.yml"},
			ProjectName:  "my-compose",
		},
	}, nil)

	if err != nil {
		log.Fatal(err)
	}

	err = project.Up(context.Background(), options.Up{})

	if err != nil {
		log.Fatal(err)
	}
}

Building

You need either Docker and make, or go in order to build libcompose.

Building with `docker`

You need Docker and make and then run the binary target. This will create binary for all platform in the bundles folder.

$ make binary
docker build -t "libcompose-dev:refactor-makefile" .
# […]
---> Making bundle: binary (in .)
Number of parallel builds: 4

-->      darwin/386: github.com/docker/libcompose/cli/main
-->    darwin/amd64: github.com/docker/libcompose/cli/main
-->       linux/386: github.com/docker/libcompose/cli/main
-->     linux/amd64: github.com/docker/libcompose/cli/main
-->       linux/arm: github.com/docker/libcompose/cli/main
-->     windows/386: github.com/docker/libcompose/cli/main
-->   windows/amd64: github.com/docker/libcompose/cli/main

$ ls bundles
libcompose-cli_darwin-386*    libcompose-cli_linux-amd64*      libcompose-cli_windows-amd64.exe*
libcompose-cli_darwin-amd64*  libcompose-cli_linux-arm*
libcompose-cli_linux-386*     libcompose-cli_windows-386.exe*

Building with `go`

You need go v1.11 or greater
you need to set export GO111MODULE=on environment variable
If your working copy is not in your GOPATH, you need to set it accordingly.

$ go generate
# Generate some stuff
$ go build -o libcompose ./cli/main

Running

A partial implementation of the libcompose-cli CLI is also implemented in Go. The primary purpose of this code is so one can easily test the behavior of libcompose.

Run one of these:

libcompose-cli_darwin-386
libcompose-cli_linux-amd64
libcompose-cli_windows-amd64.exe
libcompose-cli_darwin-amd64
libcompose-cli_linux-arm
libcompose-cli_linux-386
libcompose-cli_windows-386.exe

Tests (unit & integration)

You can run unit tests using the test-unit target and the integration test using the test-integration target. If you don't use Docker and make to build libcompose, you can use go test and the following scripts : hack/test-unit and hack/test-integration.

$ make test-unit
docker build -t "libcompose-dev:refactor-makefile" .
#[…]
---> Making bundle: test-unit (in .)
+ go test -cover -coverprofile=cover.out ./docker
ok      github.com/docker/libcompose/docker     0.019s  coverage: 4.6% of statements
+ go test -cover -coverprofile=cover.out ./project
ok      github.com/docker/libcompose/project    0.010s  coverage: 8.4% of statements
+ go test -cover -coverprofile=cover.out ./version
ok      github.com/docker/libcompose/version    0.002s  coverage: 0.0% of statements

Test success

Current status

The project is still being kickstarted... But it does a lot. Please try it out and help us find bugs.
