Feedback

Wow, this is hard to use, i have extensive docker compose exprience.

Is there are documentation on what compose file items are supported - for example how the heck do i specifiy a volume - i have tried this syntax (as sugged in older stack articles and by MS copilot, but not joy)

Is this actually a supported scenario?

If not maybe a compose to az containerapp native yaml tranlsator would be a better engineering investment and just drop support for compose entirely.

This is the compose i want to run as originally suggested by the image creators for norma docker envs

services:
  hbbs:
    container_name: hbbs
    image: rustdesk/rustdesk-server:latest
    command: hbbs
    volumes:
      - ./data:/root
    network_mode: "host"

    depends_on:
      - hbbr
    restart: unless-stopped

  hbbr:
    container_name: hbbr
    image: rustdesk/rustdesk-server:latest
    command: hbbr
    volumes:
      - ./data:/root
    network_mode: "host"
    restart: unless-stopped

This is where i ended up based on copilot input and a couple fo stack social threads (old) after trying to create container storage account and a file share account, i suspect the volume driver options cannot be translated correclty into azure file share storage or container storage - but maybe with a full canonical compose file exmample i might have a hope in hell of figuring this out

services:
  hbbs:
    image: rustdesk/rustdesk-server:latest
    command: hbbs
    ports:
      - "21115:21115"
      - "21116:21116"
      - "21116:21116/udp"
      - "21118:21118"
    volumes:
      - rustdeskdekstop-data:/root
    depends_on:
      - hbbr

  hbbr:
    image: rustdesk/rustdesk-server:latest
    command: hbbr
    ports:
      - "21117:21117"
      - "21119:21119"
    volumes:
      - rustdesktop-data:/root

volumes:
  rustdesk-data:
    driver: azure_file
    driver_opts:
      share_name: rustdesktop-data
      storage_account_name: alexbalcontainerdata
      storage_account_key: redacted

This is the issue in the azure cli - it links me to a page that doesn't help with the issue at hand (this one) because the link contains ZERO information about volumes and compose....

alex@Azure:~/compose-files$ az containerapp compose create -g AzureContainers --environment RustDesktopServerEnv --compose-file-path rustdesktop-server.yaml 
The behavior of this command has been altered by the following extension: containerapp
These volume mount elements from the docker-compose file are not supported in Azure Container Apps. For more information about supported storage configuration, please see https://aka.ms/containerapp/compose/volumes

@smurawski this is related to the comment i just put on the blog post https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/blog/AppsonAzureBlog/accelerating-azure-container-apps-with-the-azure-cli-and-compose-files/3516636

no issues if compose support is essentially deprecated - just please for the love of god put us all out of our misery and say that publiclly and in the docs so copilot stops trying to be helpful, lol :-) and folks like me don't waste hours on things that really are not appllicable any more.

and i will grumble about having to learn yet another container definition format :-)
