Create application with docker-compose?

[DenisOstr]

Will it be possible to build applications using docker-compose?

Currently we don't have a way to use docker-compose, since each application/database is individually, but in the future we can create this feature, leave open for now, currently we will focus on fixing bugs

Hi, I'm willing to help planning/building this feature in the near future, I really like the project and how you simplify processes, but not having a way to set up docker-compose projects/servicies on a "VPS deployment manager", in some way limits its capabilities to deploy OSS stuff like plausible, trigger.dev, etc. or even owner's serverfull project orquestrated by docker-compose. It's not my case now, but I can see why people might opt ​​for coolify just for this.

Maybe the way is to consider a docker-compose as a hole project instead of an application. Just joined the discord with same nickname in case anyone wants to continue with this.

@LucasAlda send me a DM in discord and we can make some planning on this feature

Missing this is an absolute show stopper for most people. As an IT admin myself I can tell you that infrastructures running based on docker are super tedious to handle with. Docker compose is a must have tool for every admin and I cant believe that this isnt a prio. I came here from trying out coolify and being super annoyed with tons of bugs and was really dissapointed to see this features is missing. I guess I have to go for Portainer + self deployed Nginx Rproxy again.
I will keep an eye on this support. As soon as this is implemented I will evaluate the stability and might switch to it :)
Despite this criticism I want to thank you for your work putting up dokploy. It seems to be a very good alternative if it matures some more. I see so many points that would let me switch to Dokploy immediatly if there wasnt this lack of support for docker-compose files.

I understand your point, this is the second functionality that we will work on after Multi node support, I know that people are excited about functionalities but they also have to understand that you have to think about how to create a functionality so that it is as easy to use and that has the least amount of errors, however rest assured that it will arrive!

Hey!

Docker compose support is already done, if you'd like to try out is the time!

Hi! Sorry I never saw your answer, tough time at work and I didn't have time. It looks awesome! Its really what I was thinking about. I'm going to read the code later but LGTM.
