As a general principle, I'm not in favour of override files. I think they muddy the waters. I think you're much better off editing docker-compose.yml
directly.
That said…
When you use IOTstack to manage Docker containers, you have access to two override mechanisms:
- A
compose-override.yml
file. This mechanism is peculiar to IOTstack and is implemented by the so-called "new" menu on the master branch. - A
docker-compose.override.yml
file. This mechanism is part of docker-compose.
