Convert docker-compose service files to Kubernetes objects.
compose2kube is in functional beta stage and supports mapping container images, varables, ports, labels, volumes, and restart policies to Kubernetes replication controllers and services. Thanks to the docker/libcompose library, compose2kube will support the complete docker-compose specification in the near future.
Rancher support: (optionally) compose2kube also reads rancher-compose.yml in order to get the information about scale and healthchecks of the containers.
For example:
export GOPATH=`pwd`/gopath
go get -v ./...
go build
Create a docker-compose.yml file
web:
image: nginx
ports:
- "80"
- "443"
database:
image: postgres
ports:
- "5432"
cache:
image: memcached
ports:
- "11211"
Test the service using the docker-compose command:
docker-compose up -d
List the running services:
docker-compose ps
Stop the services:
docker-compose stop
Remove the services:
docker-compose rm
At this point the docker-compose.yml file is ready for conversion.
Use the compose2kube command to convert compose files to native Kubernetes objects.
By default, compose2kube will search for docker-compose.yml and rancher-compose.yml in the current directory. You can change that with compose-file-path option
$ compose2kube -output-dir output

$ kubectl create -f output/

List the replication controllers:
$ kubectl get rc
CONTROLLER CONTAINER(S) IMAGE(S) SELECTOR REPLICAS
cache cache memcached service=cache 1
database database postgres service=database 1
web web nginx service=web 1
List the services:
kubectl get services

cache 10.43.32.169 <none> 11211/TCP service=cache 5m
database 10.43.32.170 <none> 5432/TCP service=database 5m
web 10.43.32.171 <none> 80/TCP,443/TCP service=web 5m
View the service pods:
$ kubectl get pods

Environment variables may be injected into the container.
web:
image: nginx
ports:
- "80"
- "443"
environment:
- NGINX_HOST=example.comThe default command may be overwritten with the "command" option.
web:
image: nginx
ports:
- "80"
- "443"
command:
- apt updateFor volumes, we currently only support mounting a host volume to a container.
The host volume is by default writable. The :ro option may be appended to
bind the volume as read only.
web:
image: nginx
ports:
- "80"
- "443"
volumes:
- /srv/nginx/uploads:/usr/share/nginx/uploads # Writable
- /srv/nginx/html:/usr/share/nginx/html:ro # Read Only
