<!-- 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).

Installing using `go get` pulls from the master branch with the latest development changes.
```sh
go get -u github.com/kubernetes/kompose
```
{{% /tab %}}
{{% tab name="CentOS package" %}}
Kompose is in [EPEL](https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EPEL) CentOS repository.
If you don't have [EPEL](https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EPEL) repository already installed and enabled you can do it by running `sudo yum install epel-release`.
If you have [EPEL](https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EPEL) enabled in your system, you can install Kompose like any other package.
```bash
sudo yum -y install kompose
```
{{% /tab %}}

## Use Kompose
In 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
services:
redis-leader:
container_name: redis-leader
image: redis
ports:
- "6379"
redis-replica:
container_name: redis-replica
image: redis
ports:
- "6379"
command: redis-server --replicaof redis-leader 6379 --dir /tmp
web:
container_name: web
image: quay.io/kompose/web
ports:
- "8080:8080"
environment:
- GET_HOSTS_FROM=dns
labels:
kompose.service.type: LoadBalancer
```
2. 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
```
The output is similar to:
```none
INFO Kubernetes file "redis-leader-service.yaml" created
INFO Kubernetes file "redis-replica-service.yaml" created
INFO Kubernetes file "web-tcp-service.yaml" created
INFO Kubernetes file "redis-leader-deployment.yaml" created
INFO Kubernetes file "redis-replica-deployment.yaml" created
INFO Kubernetes file "web-deployment.yaml" created
```
```bash
kubectl apply -f web-tcp-service.yaml,redis-leader-service.yaml,redis-replica-service.yaml,web-deployment.yaml,redis-leader-deployment.yaml,redis-replica-deployment.yaml
```
The output is similar to:
```none
deployment.apps/redis-leader created
deployment.apps/redis-replica created
deployment.apps/web created
service/redis-leader created
service/redis-replica created
service/web-tcp created
```
Your deployments are running in Kubernetes.
3. Access your application.
If you're already using `minikube` for your development process:
```bash
minikube service web-tcp
```
Otherwise, let's look up what IP your service is using!
```sh
kubectl describe svc web-tcp
```
```none
Name: web-tcp
Namespace: default
Labels: io.kompose.service=web-tcp
Annotations: kompose.cmd: kompose convert
kompose.service.type: LoadBalancer
kompose.version: 1.33.0 (3ce457399)
Selector: io.kompose.service=web
Type: LoadBalancer
IP Family Policy: SingleStack
IP Families: IPv4
IP: 10.102.30.3
IPs: 10.102.30.3
Port: 8080 8080/TCP
TargetPort: 8080/TCP
NodePort: 8080 31624/TCP
Endpoints: 10.244.0.5:8080
Session Affinity: None
External Traffic Policy: Cluster
Events: <none>
```
If you're using a cloud provider, your IP will be listed next to `LoadBalancer Ingress`.
```sh
curl http://192.0.2.89
```
4. Clean-up.
After you are finished testing out the example application deployment, simply run the following command in your shell to delete the
resources used.
```sh
kubectl delete -f web-tcp-service.yaml,redis-leader-service.yaml,redis-replica-service.yaml,web-deployment.yaml,redis-leader-deployment.yaml,redis-replica-deployment.yaml
```

## User Guide
- CLI
- [`kompose convert`](#kompose-convert)
- Documentation
- [Alternative Conversions](#alternative-conversions)
- [Labels](#labels)
- [Restart](#restart)
- [Docker Compose Versions](#docker-compose-versions)
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 `kompose convert` example
```shell
kompose --file docker-voting.yml convert
```
```none
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
```
```shell
ls
```
```none
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:
```shell
kompose -f docker-compose.yml -f docker-guestbook.yml convert
```
```none
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
```
```shell
ls
```
```none
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 overridden by subsequent file.
### OpenShift `kompose convert` example
```sh
kompose --provider openshift --file docker-voting.yml convert
```
```none
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
```
```none
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 .

## 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`.
```shell
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 DaemonSet objects.
If you want to generate a Chart to be used with [Helm](https://github.com/kubernetes/helm) run:
```shell
kompose convert -c
```
```none
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/"
```
```shell
tree docker-compose/
```
```none
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`.
{{< /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 Configurations
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 (for example, `web_service`), then it will be replaced by `-` and the service name will be renamed accordingly (for example, `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.
