docker-compose build ignoring .dockerignore?

[devinrsmith]

I've got a full example repo here:

https://github.com/devinrsmith/docker-compose-build-test

If I'm using docker-compose build incorrectly, please let me know!

You have problem with file format.

In your .dockerignore change subdir/ to subdir.

[devinrsmith]

Why does the .dockerignore work for docker build -t subdir ../ but not docker-compose build?

I am having the same issue running docker-compose 1.2.0.
Running vanilla docker build pulls in the ignore file and builds the image, np there.
However docker-compose does not use the ignore file, with or without the trailing slash.

Looks like a docker-py issue; a fix is being worked on in docker/docker-py#604. Marking this as a bug to remind us to update our docker-py version once the fix is out.

@aanand looks like docker/docker-py#604 stalled and was removed from the milestone there?

@thaJeztah I've created docker/docker-py#721 to continue the work.

Hi,

I'm facing one strange problem with .dockerignore:

*.sh

!awesome/script.sh

with docker build all is fine, but docker-compose didn't see "awesome/script.sh"

Am I in the same issue ?

@twillouer that's a known bug, fixed by docker/docker-py#721 - it'll be fixed on the Compose side in 1.5.0.
