publish images for compose v2 to dockerhub

[emeryao]

the image on docker hub is still at v1.29.2
could we publish the latest v2 images to dockerhub ?

It's more convenient for me to use the docker/compose image to run compose commands than downloading the compose binaries and it's also easier to keep updated with the latest docker compose version

For example I use the compose image to deploy a compose-yml

$ docker container run --rm \
    -v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock \
    -v $PWD/compose.yml:/srv/compose.yml \
    docker/compose:1.29.2 \
    -f /srv/compose.yml up -d

It's so convenient that there is no need to find and download the latest binary of docker-compose and deploy it to the local machine and it's so easy to keep updated by just updating the image version

That’s a good point, thanks for raising it!

Would be good for grabbing the binary in our own images (the same way the builds-bin ones are used)

[ndeloof]

as a CLI plugin, why not just get compose bundled into https://hub.docker.com/_/docker ?

[ciaranmcnulty]

@ndeloof it's possible, but currently other plugins (like buildx) aren't bundled either

@ndeloof The docs for that image don't mention compose, are you saying it is officially supported there or that it could be instead of continuing to publish a separate compose image?

[ndeloof]

I mean the docker image should include the CLI plugins. As @ciaranmcnulty noticed, it doesn't even includes buildx.
I don't know who's managing it

[thaJeztah]

The docker image on hub includes what's bundled in the static packages from download.docker.com, which do not (yet) contain plugins.

[ndeloof]

@thaJeztah sure, but that's just publisher decision to do so. Could also write Dockerfile so the image includes all released CLI plugins, right?

+1
would be nice to use some features like profiles with the image

[agronholm]

Is there any blocker for this at the moment?

[daklaus]

+1 from me as well. Currently I am adding Compose v2 to the docker image with my own Dockerfile and use the resulting image as a replacement for the original docker image for docker-in-docker builds on GitLab CI/CD pipelines.

Please push the image to Docker Hub now!

[johnthagen]

Now that Docker Compose V2 is GA, could new Docker Images be pushed?

Hi Team

with the release of docker/compose@v2.6.0 the latest docker image I pulled from dockerhub still comes with compse@v2.5.1 so I can not get the latest compose by the method above by @glours

and IMHO it is possible to always get latest compose with image of docker/compose back in v1.x ages just by pulling the latest docker/compose images @mat007

$ docker pull docker:latest
latest: Pulling from library/docker

Status: Image is up to date for docker:latest
docker.io/library/docker:latest

$ docker run --rm docker:latest docker compose version
Docker Compose version v2.5.1
