Updated Visual Studio 2022 from 17.8 to latest and now docker compose won't work

[Alexandre-VP]

Hello,

Podman was working well with Visual Studio 2022 17.8.6.
On build it was running docker-compose -f .... commands
When updating visual studio to latest version the command launched by visual studio is no longer docker-compose but docker compose

And the command fails with :

`unknown shorthand flag: 'f' in -f
See 'docker --help'.

Usage: docker [OPTIONS] COMMAND

A self-sufficient runtime for containers ...`

How can I fix this ?

Is there any way to change the command or to make the docker compose -f to work ?

I am running into this exact issue which is not a common issue. We are only able to use podman and docker-compose standalone so no docker desktop.

Did you find a way to fix this or does anyone have a solution? @Alexandre-VP

Taking pity on others who find this thread I just found a thread with the solution when trying to make a ticket with visual studio.

https://developercommunity.visualstudio.com/t/Docker-Desktop-only-supports-docker-comp/10785279?ref=native&refTime=1740553315393&refUserId=00b71221-26eb-6f6d-a7bc-3add94c6ce64

If you do need to install it as a stand-alone you can move\create a link to the docker-compose.exe in the
%USERPROFILE%.docker\cli-plugins folder and this should light up docker compose command to work.
