Docker-compose version

lioramilbaum · February 23, 2021, 6:37am

The installed version is:
gitpod /workspace/zapata $ docker-compose --version
docker-compose version 1.25.0, build unknown

Is it possible to bump the version to the latest and greatest release?

Hi @lioramilbaum!

FYI, docker-compose is being installed into Gitpod’s default workspace image here:

github.com

gitpod-io/workspace-images/blob/ab6018537431c68603191a56164565e6f75f7bc5/full/Dockerfile#L267-L273


RUN curl -o /var/lib/apt/dazzle-marks/docker.gpg -fsSL https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu/gpg \
    && apt-key add /var/lib/apt/dazzle-marks/docker.gpg \
    && add-apt-repository "deb [arch=amd64] https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu $(lsb_release -cs) stable" \
    && apt-get update \
    && apt-get install -y docker-ce docker-ce-cli containerd.io slirp4netns docker-compose \
    && cp /var/lib/dpkg/status /var/lib/apt/dazzle-marks/tool-docker.status \
    && apt-get clean && rm -rf /var/lib/apt/lists/* /tmp/*

The way to upgrade anything installed there is to modify at least one character around these lines, which will invalidate the Docker (Dazzle) cache and cause a fresh re-install of all these tools.

Also, we even already have a Pull Request up that upgrades all these: https://github.com/gitpod-io/workspace-images/pull/331

But the problem is, we found out that upgrading docker itself breaks the Docker-in-Gitpod feature, so the Pull Request is actually on hold until we fix:

Please feel free to chime into this issue, or to subscribe to it for updates. Meanwhile I’ll mention that this bug also prevents docker-compose from being upgraded.

Thanks. Waiting for updates.

@jan, can you please elaborate how do I invalidate the Docker cache?
