A Buildkite plugin that lets you build, run and push build steps using Docker Compose.
- Containers are built, run and linked on demand using Docker Compose
- Containers are namespaced to each build job, and cleaned up after use
- Supports pre-building of images, allowing for fast parallel builds across distributed agents
- Supports pushing tagged images to a repository
The following pipeline will run test.sh inside a app service container using Docker Compose, the equivalent to running docker-compose run app test.sh:
steps:
- command: test.sh
plugins:
- docker-compose#v4.5.0:
run: app; or the plugin's command option instead.
You can also specify a custom Docker Compose config file and what environment to pass through if you need:
steps:
- command: test.sh
plugins:
- docker-compose#v4.5.0:
run: app
config: docker-compose.tests.yml
env:
- BUILDKITE_BUILD_NUMBERor multiple config files:
steps:
- command: test.sh
plugins:
- docker-compose#v4.5.0:
run: app
config:
- docker-compose.yml
- docker-compose.test.ymlYou can also specify the Docker Compose config file with $COMPOSE_FILE:
env:
COMPOSE_FILE: docker-compose.yml
steps:
- command: test.sh
plugins:
- docker-compose#v4.5.0:
run: appIf you want to control how your command is passed to docker-compose, you can use the command parameter on the plugin directly:
steps:
- plugins:
- docker-compose#v4.5.0:
run: app
command: ["custom", "command", "values"]You can leverage the docker-login plugin in tandem for authenticating with a registry. For example, the following will build and push an image to a private repo, and pull from that private repo in subsequent run commands:
steps:
- plugins:
- docker-login#v2.0.1:
username: xyz
- docker-compose#v4.5.0:
build: app
image-repository: index.docker.io/myorg/myrepo
- wait
- command: test.sh
plugins:
- docker-login#v2.0.1:
username: xyz
- docker-compose#v4.5.0:
run: appNote, you will need to add the configuration to all steps in which you use this plugin.
If you’re generating artifacts in the build step, you’ll need to ensure your Docker Compose configuration volume mounts the host machine directory into the container where those artifacts are created.
For example, if you had the following step:
steps:
- command: generate-dist.sh
artifact_paths: "dist/*"
plugins:
- docker-compose#v4.5.0:
run: appAssuming your application’s directory inside the container was /app, you would need to ensure your app service in your Docker Compose config has the following host volume mount:
volumes:
- "./dist:/app/dist"You can also use the volumes plugin option to add or override a volume, for example:
steps:
- command: generate-dist.sh
artifact_paths: "dist/*"
plugins:
- docker-compose#v4.5.0:
run: app
volumes:
- "./dist:/app/dist"If you want to use environment variables in the volumes element, you will need to activate the (unsafe) option expand-volume-vars.
By default, docker-compose makes whatever environment variables it gets available for interpolation of docker-compose.yml, but it doesn't pass them in to your containers.
You can use the environment key in docker-compose.yml to either set specific environment vars or "pass through" environment variables from outside docker-compose.
If you want to add extra environment above what is declared in your docker-compose.yml,
this plugin offers a environment block of its own:
steps:
- command: generate-dist.sh
plugins:
- docker-compose#v4.5.0:
run: app
env:
- BUILDKITE_BUILD_NUMBER
- BUILDKITE_PULL_REQUEST
- MY_CUSTOM_ENV=llamasNote how the values in the list can either be just a key (so the value is sourced from the environment) or a KEY=VALUE pair.
Alternatively, you can have the plugin add all environment variables defined for the job by the agent as defined in BUILDKITE_ENV_FILE activating the propagate-environment option:
steps:
- command: use-vars.sh
plugins:
- docker-compose#v4.5.0:
run: app
propagate-environment: trueYou can use the build args key in docker-compose.yml to set specific build arguments when building an image.
Alternatively, if you want to set build arguments when pre-building an image, this plugin offers an args block of its own:
steps:
- command: generate-dist.sh
plugins:
- docker-compose#v4.5.0:
build: app
image-repository: index.docker.io/myorg/myrepo
args:
- MY_CUSTOM_ARG=pandaNote that the values in the list must be a KEY=VALUE pair.
If you have multiple steps that use the same service/image (such as steps that run in parallel), you can use this plugin in a specific build step to your pipeline. That will set specific metadata in the pipeline for this plugin to use in run steps afterwards:
steps:
- label: ":docker: Build"
plugins:
- docker-compose#v4.5.0:
build: app
image-repository: index.docker.io/myorg/myrepo
- wait
- label: ":docker: Test %n"
command: test.sh
parallelism: 25
plugins:
- docker-compose#v4.5.0:
run: appAll run steps for the service app will automatically pull and use the pre-built image. Without this, each Test %n job would build its own instead.
Sometimes your compose file has multiple services that need building. The example below will build images for the app and tests service and then the run step will pull them down and use them for the run as needed.
steps:
- label: ":docker: Build"
agents:
queue: docker-builder
plugins:
- docker-compose#v4.5.0:
build:
- app
- tests
image-repository: index.docker.io/myorg/myrepo
- wait
- label: ":docker: Test %n"
command: test.sh
parallelism: 25
plugins:
- docker-compose#v4.5.0:
run: testsIf you want to push your Docker images ready for deployment, you can use the push configuration (which operates similar to docker-compose push:
steps:
- label: ":docker: Push"
plugins:
- docker-compose#v4.5.0:
push: appTo push multiple images, you can use a list:
steps:
- label: ":docker: Push"
plugins:
- docker-compose#v4.5.0:
push:
- first-service
- second-serviceIf you want to push to a specific location (that's not defined as the image in your docker-compose.yml), you can use the {service}:{repo}:{tag} format, for example:
steps:
- label: ":docker: Push"
plugins:
- docker-compose#v4.5.0:
push:
- app:index.docker.io/myorg/myrepo/myapp
- app:index.docker.io/myorg/myrepo/myapp:latestA newly spawned agent won't contain any of the docker caches for the first run which will result in a long build step. To mitigate this you can reuse caches from a previously built image (if it was pushed from a previous build):
steps:
- label: ":docker: Build an image"
plugins:
- docker-compose#v4.5.0:
build: app
image-repository: index.docker.io/myorg/myrepo
cache-from: app:index.docker.io/myorg/myrepo/myapp:latest
- wait
- label: ":docker: Push to final repository"
plugins:
- docker-compose#v4.5.0:
push:
- app:index.docker.io/myorg/myrepo/myapp
- app:index.docker.io/myorg/myrepo/myapp:latestThis plugin allows for the value of cache-from to be a string or a list. If it's a list, as below, then the first successfully pulled image will be used.
steps:
- label: ":docker Build an image"
plugins:
- docker-compose#v4.5.0:
build: app
image-repository: index.docker.io/myorg/myrepo
cache-from:
- app:index.docker.io/myorg/myrepo/myapp:my-branch
- app:index.docker.io/myorg/myrepo/myapp:latest
- wait
- label: ":docker: Push to final repository"
plugins:
- docker-compose#v4.5.0:
push:
- app:index.docker.io/myorg/myrepo/myapp
- app:index.docker.io/myorg/myrepo/myapp:my-branch
- app:index.docker.io/myorg/myrepo/myapp:latestYou may actually want to build your image with multiple cache-from values, for instance, with the cached images of multiple stages in a multi-stage build.
Adding a grouping tag to the end of a cache-from list item allows this plugin to differentiate between groups within which only the first successfully downloaded image should be used (those elements that don't have a group specified will make a separate :default: group of its own). This way, not all images need to be downloaded and used as cache, not just the first.
steps:
- label: ":docker: Build Intermediate Image"
plugins:
- docker-compose#v4.5.0:
build: myservice_intermediate # docker-compose.yml is the same as myservice but has `target: intermediate`
image-name: buildkite-build-${BUILDKITE_BUILD_NUMBER}
image-repository: index.docker.io/myorg/myrepo/myservice_intermediate
cache-from:
- myservice_intermediate:index.docker.io/myorg/myrepo/myservice_intermediate:${BUILDKITE_BRANCH}
- myservice_intermediate:index.docker.io/myorg/myrepo/myservice_intermediate:latest
- wait
- label: ":docker: Build Final Image"
plugins:
- docker-compose#v4.5.0:
build: myservice
image-name: buildkite-build-${BUILDKITE_BUILD_NUMBER}
image-repository: index.docker.io/myorg/myrepo
cache-from:
- myservice:index.docker.io/myorg/myrepo/myservice_intermediate:buildkite-build-${BUILDKITE_BUILD_NUMBER}:intermediate # built in step above
- myservice:index.docker.io/myorg/myrepo/myservice:${BUILDKITE_BRANCH}
- myservice:index.docker.io/myorg/myrepo/myservice:latest
In the example above, the myservice_intermediate:buildkite-build-${BUILDKITE_BUILD_NUMBER} is one group named "intermediate", and myservice:${BUILDKITE_BRANCH} and myservice:latest
are another (with a default name). The first successfully downloaded image in each group will be used as a cache.
You will need to specify at least one of the following to use this extension.
The name of a service to build and store, allowing following pipeline steps to run faster as they won't need to build the image. The step's command will be ignored and does not need to be specified.
Either a single service or multiple services can be provided as an array.
The name of the service the command should be run within. If the docker-compose command would usually be docker-compose run app test.sh then the value would be app.
A list of services to push in the format service:image:tag. If an image has been pre-built with the build step, that image will be re-tagged, otherwise docker-compose's built-in push operation will be used.
A basic pipeline similar to the following:
steps:
- label: ":docker: Run & Push"
plugins:
- docker-compose#v4.5.0:
run: myservice
push: myserviceWill cause the image to be built twice (once before running and once before pushing) unless there was a previous build step that set the appropriate metadata.
A basic pipeline similar to the following:
steps:
- label: ":docker: Build & Push"
plugins:
- docker-compose#v4.5.0:
build: myservice
push: myserviceWill cause the image to be pushed twice (once by the build step and another by the push step)
Pull down multiple pre-built images. By default only the service that is being run will be pulled down, but this allows multiple images to be specified to handle prebuilt dependent images. Note that pulling will be skipped if the skip-pull option is activated.
The file name of the Docker Compose configuration file to use. Can also be a list of filenames. If $COMPOSE_FILE is set, it will be used if config is not specified.
Default: docker-compose.yml
The repository for pushing and pulling pre-built images, same as the repository location you would use for a docker push, for example "index.docker.io/myorg/myrepo". Each image is tagged to the specific build so you can safely share the same image repository for any number of projects and builds.
The default is "" which only builds images on the local Docker host doing the build.
This option can also be configured on the agent machine using the environment variable BUILDKITE_PLUGIN_DOCKER_COMPOSE_IMAGE_REPOSITORY.
The name to use when tagging pre-built images. If multiple images are built in the build phase, you must provide an array of image names.
Other docker-compose services that should be aliased to the main service that was built. This is for when different docker-compose services share the same prebuilt image.
A list of KEY=VALUE that are passed through as build arguments when image is being built.
A list of either KEY or KEY=VALUE that are passed through as environment variables to the container.
Whether or not to automatically propagate all pipeline environment variables into the run container. Avoiding the need to be specified with environment.
Important: only pipeline variables will automatically be propagated (what you see in the Buildkite UI). Variables set in proceeding hook scripts will not be propagated to the container.
Sets the command for the Docker image, and defaults the shell option to false. Useful if the Docker image has an entrypoint, or doesn't contain a shell.
This option can't be used if your step already has a top-level, non-plugin command option present.
Examples: [ "/bin/mycommand", "-c", "test" ], ["arg1", "arg2"]
Set the shell to use for the command. Set it to false to pass the command directly to the docker-compose run command. The default is ["/bin/sh", "-e", "-c"] unless you have provided a command.
Example: [ "powershell", "-Command" ]
Whether to skip the repository checkout phase. This is useful for steps that use a pre-built image and will fail if there is no pre-built image.
Important: as the code repository will not be available in the step, you need to ensure that the docker compose file(s) are present in some way (like using artifacts)
Completely avoid running any pull command. Images being used will need to be present in the machine from before or have been built in the same step. Could be useful to avoid hitting rate limits when you can be sure the operation is unnecessary. Note that it is possible other commands run in the plugin's lifecycle will trigger a pull of necessary images.
Specify the container working directory via docker-compose run --workdir. This option is also used by mount-checkout if it doesn't specify where to mount the checkout in the container.
Example: /app
Run as specified username or uid via docker-compose run --user.
Whether to match the user ID and group ID for the container user to the user ID and group ID for the host user. It is similar to specifying user: 1000:1000, except it avoids hardcoding a particular user/group ID.
Using this option ensures that any files created on shared mounts from within the container will be accessible to the host user. It is otherwise common to accidentally create root-owned files that Buildkite will be unable to remove, since containers by default run as the root user.
Whether to automatically mount the ssh-agent socket from the host agent machine into the container (at /ssh-agentand /root/.ssh/known_hosts respectively), allowing git operations to work correctly.
Default: false
Whether to automatically mount the buildkite-agent binary and associated environment variables from the host agent machine into the container.
Default: false
The absolute path where to mount the current working directory which contains your checked out codebase.
If set to true it will mount onto /workdir, unless workdir is set, in which case that will be used.
Default: false
A number of times to retry failed docker pull. Defaults to 0.
This option can also be configured on the agent machine using the environment variable BUILDKITE_PLUGIN_DOCKER_COMPOSE_PULL_RETRIES.
A number of times to retry failed docker push. Defaults to 0.
This option can also be configured on the agent machine using the environment variable BUILDKITE_PLUGIN_DOCKER_COMPOSE_PUSH_RETRIES.
A list of images to pull caches from in the format service:index.docker.io/myorg/myrepo/myapp:tag before building, ignoring any failures. If multiple images are listed for a service, the first one to successfully pull will be used. Requires docker-compose file version 3.2+.
Allow for intermediate builds with --target VALUE options.
Note that there is a single build command run for all services so the target value will apply to all of them.
A list of volumes to mount into the container. If a matching volume exists in the Docker Compose config file, this option will override that definition.
Additionally, volumes may be specified via the agent environment variable BUILDKITE_DOCKER_DEFAULT_VOLUMES, a ; (semicolon) delimited list of mounts in the -v syntax. (Ex. buildkite:/buildkite;./app:/app).
When set to true, it will activate interpolation of variables in the elements of the volumes configuration array. When turned off (the default), attempting to use variables will fail as the literal $VARIABLE_NAME string will be passed to the -v option.
eval which could lead to arbitrary code execution or information leaking if you don't have complete control of the pipeline
Gracefully shuts down all containers via 'docker-compose stop`.
The default is false.
Prevent the removal of volumes after the command has been run.
The default is false.
Build with --no-cache, causing Docker Compose to not use any caches when building the image.
The default is false.
Build with --parallel, causing Docker Compose to run builds in parallel. Requires docker-compose 1.23+.
The default is false.
If set to false, doesn't allocate a TTY. This is useful in some situations where TTY's aren't supported, for instance windows.
The default is true on unix, false on windows
If set to false, doesn't start linked services.
The default is true.
If set to false, disables the ansi output from containers.
The default is true.
If set to true, docker compose will use the service's network aliases in the network(s) the container connects to.
The default is false.
Sets docker-compose to run with --verbose
The default is false.
If set to true, docker compose will remove the primary container after run. Equivalent to --rm in docker-compose.
The default is true.
Sets the --entrypoint argument when running docker-compose.
Select when to upload container logs.
on-errorUpload logs for all containers when an error occursalwaysAlways upload logs for all containerneverNever upload logs for all container
The default is on-error.
If set to 2, plugin will use docker compose to execute commands; otherwise it will default to version 1 using docker-compose instead.
If set to true, remove all docker containers and volumes before starting.
The default is false.
To run the tests:
docker-compose run --rm tests bats tests tests/v2Assuming you have a compatible docker installation and configuration in the agent, activating this option would setup the environment for the docker-compose build call to use BuildKit. Note that if you are using cli-version 2, you are already using buildkit by default.
You may want to also add BUILDKIT_INLINE_CACHE=1 to your build arguments (args option in this plugin), but know that there are known issues with it.
When enabled, it will add the --ssh option to the build command. Note that it assumes you have a compatible docker installation and configuration in the agent (meaning you are using BuildKit and it is correctly setup).
