Nested docker-compose configurations don't inherit composeFiles anymore

[vierbergenlars]

Are you sure that this was ever supported?

The avast docker-compose plugin has this in their docs:

Configuration of the nested settings defaults to the main dockerCompose settings (declared before the nested settings), except following properties: projectName, startedServices, useComposeFiles, scale, captureContainersOutputToFile, captureContainersOutputToFiles, composeLogToFile, containerLogToDir, pushServices

And that statement is there since version 0.12.2 (the behavior even earlier)

It used to work with +=, now with add it does not anymore. I'm not sure that it works with the vanilla dockerCompose plugin. It's in our backlog to check it out.

I tested with all plugin versions from 5.0.2 (the first version that introduced nested support) until 5.4.0 (the current latest version)

I could not find any version that actually appends additional items to the list of the composeFiles when creating a nested configuration.

By searching in all repositories, I can not find a single use of this behavior. However, I do see a pattern that can be mistaken for this behavior:

• https://github.com/xenit-eu/dynamic-extensions-for-alfresco/blob/b5ea3b26d855ebe841e56ce3403bb7dc753cf5cc/integration-tests/build.gradle#L103-L106

  • dockerCompose {
    dockerComposeWorkingDirectory = 'docker-compose/'
    keycloak {
        useComposeFiles = dockerCompose.useComposeFiles + ['docker-compose-keycloak.yml']
    }
    }

Test code

```java package eu.xenit.gradle.docker.compose; import static org.junit.Assert.assertEquals; import com.avast.gradle.dockercompose.ComposeSettings; import java.util.ArrayList; import java.util.List; import org.gradle.api.Project; import org.gradle.testfixtures.ProjectBuilder; import org.junit.Test; public class DockerComposeExtensionOverrideTest { @Test public void nestedContainsParentComposeFiles() { Project project = ProjectBuilder.builder().build(); project.getPluginManager().apply(DockerComposePlugin.class); project.getExtensions().configure(DockerComposeExtensionOverride.class, dockerCompose -> { dockerCompose.getUseComposeFiles().add("docker-compose-1.yml"); ((ComposeSettings)dockerCompose.methodMissing("sub", new Object[0])).getUseComposeFiles().add("docker-compose-2.yml"); }); List composeFiles = project.getExtensions().getByType(DockerComposeExtensionOverride.class).getUseComposeFiles(); List subComposeFiles = ((ComposeSettings)project.getExtensions().getByType(DockerComposeExtensionOverride.class).propertyMissing("sub")).getUseComposeFiles(); assertEquals(new ArrayList() {{ add("docker-compose.yml"); add("docker-compose-1.yml"); }}, composeFiles); assertEquals(new ArrayList() {{ add("docker-compose.yml"); add("docker-compose-1.yml"); add("docker-compose-2.yml"); }}, subComposeFiles); } } ```
