Elixir library to work with Docker Compose.
It wraps around the docker-compose CLI and provides subset of the capabilities directly from Elixir.
It's available in Hex, just add the snippet below to your dependencies.
{:docker_compose, "~> 0.2"}Documentation can be found at HexDocs.
Make sure you have the docker-compose executable available and working, this library is only a
wrapper around it. If running the app inside docker make sure the container has access to the docker
socket and that the docker-compose inside the docker container works fine.
The simplest and prob. most used command is up to start services defined in a compose definition.
DockerCompose.up()If the compose is not located in the standard location you can use compose_path parameter, there
are few other parameters for the most common scenarios, e.g. you can only start a specific services.
DockerCompose.up(compose_path: "docker/my-compose.yml", service: "db", service: "kafka")For the full list of commands and options check out the official documentation at HexDocs.
If you found a bug or if you want some feature, feel free to open an issue or PR. We are open for collaboration! The library is not 100% complete, it implements what was needed at the time. However, it is very simple to add other options or commands, so feel free to open PRs.
