Reference implementation for docker-compose target platform support
score-compose
is a reference implementation of the Score specification for Docker compose, primarily used for local development. It supports most aspects of the Score specification and provides a powerful resource provisioning system for supplying and customising the dynamic configuration of attached services such as databases, queues, storage, and other network or storage APIs.
score-compose
supports as many Score features as possible, however there are certain parts that don't fit well in a local Docker case and are not supported:
Feature | Support | Impact |
---|---|---|
containers.*.resources.limits / containers.*.resources.requests |
none | Limits will be validated but ignored. While the compose specification has some support for this, it is requires particular Docker versions that cannot be relied on. This should have no impact on Workload execution. |
containers.*.livenessProbe / containers.*.readinessProbe |
none | Probes will be validated but ignored. The Score specification only details K8s-like HTTP probes, but the compose specification only supports direct command execution. We cannot convert between the two reliably. This should have no impact on Workload execution. Tracked in #86. |
containers.*.volumes[*].path |
none | Volume mounts with path will be rejected. Docker compose doesn't support sub-path mounts for Docker volumes. |
score-compose
comes with out-of-the-box support for:
Type | Class | Params | Output |
---|---|---|---|
environment | default | (none) | ${KEY} |
service-port | default | workload , port |
hostname , port |
volume | default | (none) | source |
redis | default | (none) | host , port , username , password |
postgres | default | (none) | host , port , name (aka database ), username , password |
mysql | default | (none) | host , port , name (aka database ), username , password |
s3 | default | (none) | endpoint , access_key_id , secret_key , bucket , with region="" , aws_access_key_id=<access_key_id> , and aws_secret_key=<secret_key> for compatibility |
dns | default | (none) | host |
route | default | host , path , port |
|
amqp | default | (none) | host , port , vhost , username , password |
mongodb | default | (none) | host , port , username , password , connection |
kafka-topic | default | (none) | host , port , name , num_partitions |
elasticsearch | default | (none) | host , port , username , password |
These can be found in the default provisioners file. You are encouraged to write your own provisioners and add them to the .score-compose
directory (with the .provisioners.yaml
extension) or contribute them upstream to the default.provisioners.yaml file.
To install score-compose
, follow the instructions as described in our installation guide. You will also need a recent version of Docker and the Compose plugin installed. Read more here.
NOTE: the following examples and guides relate to score-compose >= 0.11.0
, check your version using score-compose --version
and re-install if you're behind!
See the examples for more examples of using Score and provisioning resources:

resource provisionerIf you're getting started, you can use score-compose init
to create a basic score.yaml
file in the current directory along with a .score-compose/
working directory.
$ score-compose init --help
The init subcommand will prepare the current directory for working with score-compose and prepare any local
files or configuration needed to be successful.
A directory named .score-compose will be created if it doesn't exist. This file stores local state and generally should
not be checked into source control. Add it to your .gitignore file if you use Git as version control.
The project name will be used as a Docker compose project name when the final compose files are written. This name
acts as a namespace when multiple score files and containers are used.
Usage:
score-compose init [flags]
Flags:
-f, --file string The score file to initialize (default "./score.yaml")
-h, --help help for init
-p, --project string Set the name of the docker compose project (defaults to the current directory name)
Global Flags:
--quiet Mute any logging output
-v, --verbose count Increase log verbosity and detail by specifying this flag one or more times
Once you have a score.yaml
file created, modify it by following this guide, and use score-compose generate
to convert it into a Docker compose manifest:
The generate command will convert Score files in the current Score compose project into a combined Docker compose
manifest. All resources and links between Workloads will be resolved and provisioned as required.
By default this command looks for score.yaml in the current directory, but can take explicit file names as positional
arguments.
"score-compose init" MUST be run first. An error will be thrown if the project directory is not present.
Usage:
score-compose generate [flags]
Examples:
# Specify Score files
score-compose generate score.yaml *.score.yaml
# Regenerate without adding new score files
score-compose generate
# Provide overrides when one score file is provided
score-compose generate score.yaml --override-file=./overrides.score.yaml --override-property=metadata.key=value
Flags:
--build stringArray An optional build context to use for the given container --build=container=./dir or --build=container={"context":"./dir"}
--env-file string Location to store a skeleton .env file for compose - this will override existing content
-h, --help help for generate
--image string An optional container image to use for any container with image == '.'
-o, --output string The output file to write the composed compose file to (default "compose.yaml")
--override-property stringArray An optional set of path=key overrides to set or remove
--overrides-file string An optional file of Score overrides to merge in
Global Flags:
--quiet Mute any logging output
-v, --verbose count Increase log verbosity and detail by specifying this flag one or more times
NOTE: The score-compose run
command still exists but is hidden and should be considered deprecated as it does not support resource provisioning.
Run the tests using go test -v ./... -race
. If you do not have docker
CLI installed locally or want the tests to run
faster, consider setting NO_DOCKER=true
to skip any docker compose
based validation during testing.
