<!-- overview -->
What's Kompose? It's a conversion tool for all things compose (namely Docker Compose) to container orchestrators (Kubernetes or OpenShift).
More information can be found on the Kompose website at [http://kompose.io](http://kompose.io).

{{< /tabs >}}
## Use Kompose
In just a few steps, we'll take you from Docker Compose to Kubernetes. All
you need is an existing `docker-compose.yml` file.
1. Go to the directory containing your `docker-compose.yml` file. If you don't
have one, test using this one.
```yaml
version: "2"
services:
redis-master:
image: k8s.gcr.io/redis:e2e
ports:
- "6379"
redis-slave:
image: gcr.io/google_samples/gb-redisslave:v3
ports:
- "6379"
environment:
- GET_HOSTS_FROM=dns
frontend:
image: gcr.io/google-samples/gb-frontend:v4
ports:
- "80:80"
environment:
- GET_HOSTS_FROM=dns
labels:
kompose.service.type: LoadBalancer
```
2. Run the `kompose up` command to deploy to Kubernetes directly, or skip to
the next step instead to generate a file to use with `kubectl`.
```bash
$ kompose up
We are going to create Kubernetes Deployments, Services and PersistentVolumeClaims for your Dockerized application.
If you need different kind of resources, use the 'kompose convert' and 'kubectl apply -f' commands instead.
INFO Successfully created Service: redis
INFO Successfully created Service: web
INFO Successfully created Deployment: redis
INFO Successfully created Deployment: web
Your application has been deployed to Kubernetes. You can run 'kubectl get deployment,svc,pods,pvc' for details.
```
3. To convert the `docker-compose.yml` file to files that you can use with
`kubectl`, run `kompose convert` and then `kubectl apply -f <output file>`.
```bash
$ kompose convert
INFO Kubernetes file "frontend-service.yaml" created
INFO Kubernetes file "redis-master-service.yaml" created
INFO Kubernetes file "redis-slave-service.yaml" created
INFO Kubernetes file "frontend-deployment.yaml" created
INFO Kubernetes file "redis-master-deployment.yaml" created
INFO Kubernetes file "redis-slave-deployment.yaml" created
```
```bash
$ kubectl apply -f frontend-service.yaml,redis-master-service.yaml,redis-slave-service.yaml,frontend-deployment.yaml,redis-master-deployment.yaml,redis-slave-deployment.yaml
service/frontend created
service/redis-master created
service/redis-slave created
deployment.apps/frontend created
deployment.apps/redis-master created
deployment.apps/redis-slave created
```
Your deployments are running in Kubernetes.
4. Access your application.
If you're already using `minikube` for your development process:
```bash
$ minikube service frontend
```
Otherwise, let's look up what IP your service is using!
```sh
$ kubectl describe svc frontend
Name: frontend
Namespace: default
Labels: service=frontend
Selector: service=frontend
Type: LoadBalancer
IP: 10.0.0.183
LoadBalancer Ingress: 192.0.2.89
Port: 80 80/TCP
NodePort: 80 31144/TCP
Endpoints: 172.17.0.4:80
Session Affinity: None
No events.
```
If you're using a cloud provider, your IP will be listed next to `LoadBalancer Ingress`.
```sh
$ curl http://192.0.2.89
```

Kompose has support for two providers: OpenShift and Kubernetes.
You can choose a targeted provider using global option `--provider`. If no provider is specified, Kubernetes is set by default.
## `kompose convert`
Kompose supports conversion of V1, V2, and V3 Docker Compose files into Kubernetes and OpenShift objects.
### Kubernetes
```sh
$ kompose --file docker-voting.yml convert
WARN Unsupported key networks - ignoring
WARN Unsupported key build - ignoring
INFO Kubernetes file "worker-svc.yaml" created
INFO Kubernetes file "db-svc.yaml" created
INFO Kubernetes file "redis-svc.yaml" created
INFO Kubernetes file "result-svc.yaml" created
INFO Kubernetes file "vote-svc.yaml" created
INFO Kubernetes file "redis-deployment.yaml" created
INFO Kubernetes file "result-deployment.yaml" created
INFO Kubernetes file "vote-deployment.yaml" created
INFO Kubernetes file "worker-deployment.yaml" created
INFO Kubernetes file "db-deployment.yaml" created
$ ls
db-deployment.yaml docker-compose.yml docker-gitlab.yml redis-deployment.yaml result-deployment.yaml vote-deployment.yaml worker-deployment.yaml
db-svc.yaml docker-voting.yml redis-svc.yaml result-svc.yaml vote-svc.yaml worker-svc.yaml
```
You can also provide multiple docker-compose files at the same time:
```sh
$ kompose -f docker-compose.yml -f docker-guestbook.yml convert
INFO Kubernetes file "frontend-service.yaml" created
INFO Kubernetes file "mlbparks-service.yaml" created
INFO Kubernetes file "mongodb-service.yaml" created
INFO Kubernetes file "redis-master-service.yaml" created
INFO Kubernetes file "redis-slave-service.yaml" created
INFO Kubernetes file "frontend-deployment.yaml" created
INFO Kubernetes file "mlbparks-deployment.yaml" created
INFO Kubernetes file "mongodb-deployment.yaml" created
INFO Kubernetes file "mongodb-claim0-persistentvolumeclaim.yaml" created
INFO Kubernetes file "redis-master-deployment.yaml" created
INFO Kubernetes file "redis-slave-deployment.yaml" created
$ ls
mlbparks-deployment.yaml mongodb-service.yaml redis-slave-service.jsonmlbparks-service.yaml
frontend-deployment.yaml mongodb-claim0-persistentvolumeclaim.yaml redis-master-service.yaml
frontend-service.yaml mongodb-deployment.yaml redis-slave-deployment.yaml
redis-master-deployment.yaml
```
When multiple docker-compose files are provided the configuration is merged. Any configuration that is common will be over ridden by subsequent file.
### OpenShift
```sh
$ kompose --provider openshift --file docker-voting.yml convert
WARN [worker] Service cannot be created because of missing port.
INFO OpenShift file "vote-service.yaml" created
INFO OpenShift file "db-service.yaml" created
INFO OpenShift file "redis-service.yaml" created
INFO OpenShift file "result-service.yaml" created
INFO OpenShift file "vote-deploymentconfig.yaml" created
INFO OpenShift file "vote-imagestream.yaml" created
INFO OpenShift file "worker-deploymentconfig.yaml" created
INFO OpenShift file "worker-imagestream.yaml" created
INFO OpenShift file "db-deploymentconfig.yaml" created
INFO OpenShift file "db-imagestream.yaml" created
INFO OpenShift file "redis-deploymentconfig.yaml" created
INFO OpenShift file "redis-imagestream.yaml" created
INFO OpenShift file "result-deploymentconfig.yaml" created
INFO OpenShift file "result-imagestream.yaml" created
```
It also supports creating buildconfig for build directive in a service. By default, it uses the remote repo for the current git branch as the source repo, and the current branch as the source branch for the build. You can specify a different source repo and branch using ``--build-repo`` and ``--build-branch`` options respectively.
```sh
$ kompose --provider openshift --file buildconfig/docker-compose.yml convert
WARN [foo] Service cannot be created because of missing port.
INFO OpenShift Buildconfig using git@github.com:rtnpro/kompose.git::master as source.
INFO OpenShift file "foo-deploymentconfig.yaml" created
INFO OpenShift file "foo-imagestream.yaml" created
INFO OpenShift file "foo-buildconfig.yaml" created
```
{{< note >}}
If you are manually pushing the OpenShift artifacts using ``oc create -f``, you need to ensure that you push the imagestream artifact before the buildconfig artifact, to workaround this OpenShift issue: https://github.com/openshift/origin/issues/4518 .
{{< /note >}}
## `kompose up`
Kompose supports a straightforward way to deploy your "composed" application to Kubernetes or OpenShift via `kompose up`.
### Kubernetes
```sh
$ kompose --file ./examples/docker-guestbook.yml up
We are going to create Kubernetes deployments and services for your Dockerized application.
If you need different kind of resources, use the 'kompose convert' and 'kubectl apply -f' commands instead.
INFO Successfully created service: redis-master
INFO Successfully created service: redis-slave
INFO Successfully created service: frontend
INFO Successfully created deployment: redis-master
INFO Successfully created deployment: redis-slave
INFO Successfully created deployment: frontend
Your application has been deployed to Kubernetes. You can run 'kubectl get deployment,svc,pods' for details.
$ kubectl get deployment,svc,pods

pod/redis-slave-2504961300-nve7b 1/1 Running 0 4m
```
**Note**:
- You must have a running Kubernetes cluster with a pre-configured kubectl context.
- Only deployments and services are generated and deployed to Kubernetes. If you need different kind of resources, use the `kompose convert` and `kubectl apply -f` commands instead.
### OpenShift
```sh
$ kompose --file ./examples/docker-guestbook.yml --provider openshift up
We are going to create OpenShift DeploymentConfigs and Services for your Dockerized application.
If you need different kind of resources, use the 'kompose convert' and 'oc create -f' commands instead.

```
**Note**:
- You must have a running OpenShift cluster with a pre-configured `oc` context (`oc login`)
## `kompose down`
Once you have deployed "composed" application to Kubernetes, `$ kompose down` will help you to take the application out by deleting its deployments and services. If you need to remove other resources, use the 'kubectl' command.
```sh
$ kompose --file docker-guestbook.yml down
INFO Successfully deleted service: redis-master
INFO Successfully deleted deployment: redis-master
INFO Successfully deleted service: redis-slave
INFO Successfully deleted deployment: redis-slave
INFO Successfully deleted service: frontend
INFO Successfully deleted deployment: frontend
```
**Note**:
- You must have a running Kubernetes cluster with a pre-configured kubectl context.
## Build and Push Docker Images
Kompose supports both building and pushing Docker images. When using the `build` key within your Docker Compose file, your image will:
- Automatically be built with Docker using the `image` key specified within your file
- Be pushed to the correct Docker repository using local credentials (located at `.docker/config`)
Using an [example Docker Compose file](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kubernetes/kompose/master/examples/buildconfig/docker-compose.yml):
```yaml
version: "2"
services:
foo:
build: "./build"
image: docker.io/foo/bar
```
Using `kompose up` with a `build` key:
```none
$ kompose up
INFO Build key detected. Attempting to build and push image 'docker.io/foo/bar'
INFO Building image 'docker.io/foo/bar' from directory 'build'
INFO Image 'docker.io/foo/bar' from directory 'build' built successfully
INFO Pushing image 'foo/bar:latest' to registry 'docker.io'
INFO Attempting authentication credentials 'https://index.docker.io/v1/
INFO Successfully pushed image 'foo/bar:latest' to registry 'docker.io'
INFO We are going to create Kubernetes Deployments, Services and PersistentVolumeClaims for your Dockerized application. If you need different kind of resources, use the 'kompose convert' and 'kubectl apply -f' commands instead.
INFO Deploying application in "default" namespace
INFO Successfully created Service: foo
INFO Successfully created Deployment: foo
Your application has been deployed to Kubernetes. You can run 'kubectl get deployment,svc,pods,pvc' for details.
```
In order to disable the functionality, or choose to use BuildConfig generation (with OpenShift) `--build (local|build-config|none)` can be passed.
```sh
# Disable building/pushing Docker images
$ kompose up --build none
# Generate Build Config artifacts for OpenShift
$ kompose up --provider openshift --build build-config
```
## Alternative Conversions
The default `kompose` transformation will generate Kubernetes [Deployments](/docs/concepts/workloads/controllers/deployment/) and [Services](/docs/concepts/services-networking/service/), in yaml format. You have alternative option to generate json with `-j`. Also, you can alternatively generate [Replication Controllers](/docs/concepts/workloads/controllers/replicationcontroller/) objects, [Daemon Sets](/docs/concepts/workloads/controllers/daemonset/), or [Helm](https://github.com/helm/helm) charts.
```sh
$ kompose convert -j
INFO Kubernetes file "redis-svc.json" created
INFO Kubernetes file "web-svc.json" created
INFO Kubernetes file "redis-deployment.json" created
INFO Kubernetes file "web-deployment.json" created
```
The `*-deployment.json` files contain the Deployment objects.
```sh
$ kompose convert --replication-controller
INFO Kubernetes file "redis-svc.yaml" created
INFO Kubernetes file "web-svc.yaml" created
INFO Kubernetes file "redis-replicationcontroller.yaml" created
INFO Kubernetes file "web-replicationcontroller.yaml" created
```
The `*-replicationcontroller.yaml` files contain the Replication Controller objects. If you want to specify replicas (default is 1), use `--replicas` flag: `$ kompose convert --replication-controller --replicas 3`
```sh
$ kompose convert --daemon-set
INFO Kubernetes file "redis-svc.yaml" created
INFO Kubernetes file "web-svc.yaml" created
INFO Kubernetes file "redis-daemonset.yaml" created
INFO Kubernetes file "web-daemonset.yaml" created
```
The `*-daemonset.yaml` files contain the Daemon Set objects
If you want to generate a Chart to be used with [Helm](https://github.com/kubernetes/helm) simply do:
```sh
$ kompose convert -c
INFO Kubernetes file "web-svc.yaml" created
INFO Kubernetes file "redis-svc.yaml" created
INFO Kubernetes file "web-deployment.yaml" created
INFO Kubernetes file "redis-deployment.yaml" created
chart created in "./docker-compose/"
$ tree docker-compose/
docker-compose
├── Chart.yaml
├── README.md
└── templates
├── redis-deployment.yaml
├── redis-svc.yaml
├── web-deployment.yaml
└── web-svc.yaml
```
The chart structure is aimed at providing a skeleton for building your Helm charts.
## Labels
`kompose` supports Kompose-specific labels within the `docker-compose.yml` file in order to explicitly define a service's behavior upon conversion.
- `kompose.service.type` defines the type of service to be created.
For example:
```yaml
version: "2"
services:
nginx:
image: nginx
dockerfile: foobar
build: ./foobar
cap_add:
- ALL
container_name: foobar
labels:
kompose.service.type: nodeport
```
- `kompose.service.expose` defines if the service needs to be made accessible from outside the cluster or not. If the value is set to "true", the provider sets the endpoint automatically, and for any other value, the value is set as the hostname. If multiple ports are defined in a service, the first one is chosen to be the exposed.
- For the Kubernetes provider, an ingress resource is created and it is assumed that an ingress controller has already been configured.
- For the OpenShift provider, a route is created.
For example:
```yaml
version: "2"
services:
web:
image: tuna/docker-counter23
ports:
- "5000:5000"
links:
- redis
labels:
kompose.service.expose: "counter.example.com"
redis:
image: redis:3.0
ports:
- "6379"
```
The currently supported options are:
| Key | Value |
|----------------------|-------------------------------------|
| kompose.service.type | nodeport / clusterip / loadbalancer |
| kompose.service.expose| true / hostname |
{{< note >}}
The `kompose.service.type` label should be defined with `ports` only, otherwise `kompose` will fail.
{{< /note >}}
## Restart
If you want to create normal pods without controllers you can use `restart` construct of docker-compose to define that. Follow table below to see what happens on the `restart` value.
| `docker-compose` `restart` | object created | Pod `restartPolicy` |
|----------------------------|-------------------|---------------------|
| `""` | controller object | `Always` |
| `always` | controller object | `Always` |
| `on-failure` | Pod | `OnFailure` |
| `no` | Pod | `Never` |
{{< note >}}
The controller object could be `deployment` or `replicationcontroller`, etc.
{{< /note >}}
For example, the `pival` service will become pod down here. This container calculated value of `pi`.
```yaml
version: '2'
services:
pival:
image: perl
command: ["perl", "-Mbignum=bpi", "-wle", "print bpi(2000)"]
restart: "on-failure"
```
### Warning about Deployment Config's
If the Docker Compose file has a volume specified for a service, the Deployment (Kubernetes) or DeploymentConfig (OpenShift) strategy is changed to "Recreate" instead of "RollingUpdate" (default). This is done to avoid multiple instances of a service from accessing a volume at the same time.
If the Docker Compose file has service name with `_` in it (eg.`web_service`), then it will be replaced by `-` and the service name will be renamed accordingly (eg.`web-service`). Kompose does this because "Kubernetes" doesn't allow `_` in object name.
Please note that changing service name might break some `docker-compose` files.
## Docker Compose Versions
Kompose supports Docker Compose versions: 1, 2 and 3. We have limited support on versions 2.1 and 3.2 due to their experimental nature.
A full list on compatibility between all three versions is listed in our [conversion document](https://github.com/kubernetes/kompose/blob/master/docs/conversion.md) including a list of all incompatible Docker Compose keys.
