`dcmerge` is a small program to merge docker-compose files from multiple
sources. It is available via RPM and docker.
The dynamic pattern of a docker-compose file, that for example `environments`
can be specified as a string slice or a list of objects is currently not
supported. `dcmerge` expect a strict pattern layout. The `environments`, `ports`
and `volumes` must be declared as a slice of strings.
Dockercompose file can be read-in from different sources. Currently are the
following sources supported:
- File
- HTTP/HTTPS
Furthermore, `dcmerge` support different ways to merge multiple docker-compose
files.
- The default merge, add missing secrets, services, networks and volumes.
- The existing-win merge, add and protect existing attributes.
- The last-win merge, add or overwrite existing attributes.
## default
Merge only missing secrets, services, networks and volumes without respecting
their attributes. For example, when the service `app` is already declared, it is
not possible to add the service `app` twice. The second service will be
completely skipped.
```yaml
---
# cat ~/docker-compose-A.yaml
services:
app:
environments:
- CLIENT_SECRET=HelloWorld123
image: example.local/app/name:0.1.0
---
# cat ~/docker-compose-B.yaml
services:
app:
image: app/name:2.3.0
volume:
- /etc/localtime:/etc/localtime
- /dev/urandom:/etc/urandom
db:
image: postgres
volume:
- /etc/localtime:/etc/localtime
- /dev/urandom:/etc/urandom
---
# dcmerge ~/docker-compose-A.yaml ~/docker-compose-B.yaml
services:
app:
environments:
- CLIENT_SECRET=HelloWorld123
image: example.local/app/name:0.1.0
db:
image: postgres
volume:
- /etc/localtime:/etc/localtime
- /dev/urandom:/etc/urandom
```
## existing-win
The existing-win merge protects existing attributes. For example there are two
different docker-compose files, but booth has the same environment variable
`CLIENT_SECRET` defined with different values. The first declaration of the
attribute wins and is for overwriting protected.
```yaml
---
# cat ~/docker-compose-A.yaml
services:
app:
environments:
- CLIENT_SECRET=HelloWorld123
image: example.local/app/name:0.1.0
---
# cat ~/docker-compose-B.yaml
services:
app:
environments:
- CLIENT_SECRET=FooBar123
image: example.local/app/name:0.1.0
---
# dcmerge --existing-win ~/docker-compose-A.yaml ~/docker-compose-B.yaml
services:
app:
environments:
- CLIENT_SECRET=HelloWorld123
image: example.local/app/name:0.1.0
```
## last-win
The last-win merge overwrite recursive existing attributes. For example there
are two different docker-compose files, but booth has the same environment
variable `CLIENT_SECRET` defined with different values. The last passed
docker-compose file which contains this environment wins.
```yaml
---
# cat ~/docker-compose-A.yaml
services:
app:
environments:
- CLIENT_SECRET=HelloWorld123
image: example.local/app/name:0.1.0
---
# cat ~/docker-compose-B.yaml
services:
app:
environments:
- CLIENT_SECRET=FooBar123
image: example.local/app/name:0.1.0
---
# dcmerge --last-win ~/docker-compose-A.yaml ~/docker-compose-B.yaml
services:
app:
environments:
- CLIENT_SECRET=FooBar123
image: example.local/app/name:0.1.0
```
