Nicolas De Loof 01a60a5e99 fix(up): drop benign context.Canceled noise from the final report
The new TestUpAttachedTerminatesOnExternalStop (#13990) occasionally
observed `up` exit 1 instead of 0 after an external stop/down cancels
a service's restart backoff. The cause: once the monitor detects
termination and cancels globalCtx, a log-streaming goroutine still
blocked on logs?follow=1 for the backoff container gets a
context.Canceled error, which appendErr collected unfiltered into the
final errors.Join.

That race could only surface once #13990 made the monitor loop
actually return in this scenario -- before that fix, up hung forever
and never reached this code path.

appendErr now drops an error that is nothing more than fallout from
our own shutdown (errors.Is(err, context.Canceled) once
u.globalCtx.Err() is set), the same way a SIGINT-triggered teardown's
residual goroutine errors are already expected to be harmless. A
genuine error is still reported regardless of shutdown state.

Docker Compose

GitHub release PkgGoDev Build Status Codecov OpenSSF Scorecard Docker Compose

Docker Compose is a tool for running multi-container applications on Docker defined using the Compose file format. A Compose file is used to define how one or more containers that make up your application are configured. Once you have a Compose file, you can create and start your application with a single command: docker compose up.

Note

: About Docker Swarm Docker Swarm used to rely on the legacy compose file format but did not adopt the compose specification so is missing some of the recent enhancements in the compose syntax. After acquisition by Mirantis swarm isn't maintained by Docker Inc, and as such some Docker Compose features aren't accessible to swarm users.

Where to get Docker Compose

Windows and macOS

Docker Compose is included in Docker Desktop for Windows and macOS.

Linux

You can download Docker Compose binaries from the release page on this repository.

Rename the relevant binary for your OS to docker-compose and copy it to $HOME/.docker/cli-plugins

Or copy it into one of these folders to install it system-wide:

  • /usr/local/lib/docker/cli-plugins OR /usr/local/libexec/docker/cli-plugins
  • /usr/lib/docker/cli-plugins OR /usr/libexec/docker/cli-plugins

(might require making the downloaded file executable with chmod +x)

Quick Start

Using Docker Compose is a three-step process:

  1. Define your app's environment with a Dockerfile so it can be reproduced anywhere.
  2. Define the services that make up your app in compose.yaml so they can be run together in an isolated environment.
  3. Lastly, run docker compose up and Compose will start and run your entire app.

A Compose file looks like this:

services:
  web:
    build: .
    ports:
      - "5000:5000"
    volumes:
      - .:/code
  redis:
    image: redis
