Compose Folders

Dockman can give folders a special compose view. If a folder contains a single file named compose.yaml, it can be promoted to a compose folder.

This doesn’t change the actual files on disk, your folder and file still exist the same way, it just changes how Dockman displays them for faster access.

If the folder doesn’t contain a compose.yaml file or contains multiple files, it will be shown as a normal folder.

Enabling Compose Folders

To turn this on, add the following to your .dockman.yml file:

.dockman.yml
useComposeFolders: true
