# Role `docker_compose`
A role for deploying a Docker-Compose-based application.
It deploys the given Compose file, an optional `.env` file, as well as configuration files to the specified hosts and makes sure all services are up-to-date and running.
The Compose file gets deployed to `/ansible_docker_compose/compose.yaml`, the `.env` file to `/ansible_docker_compose/.env` and the configuration files get deployed into the `/ansible_docker_compose/configs/` directory.
A use case for the deployment of the additional configuration files is Composes top-level element `configs` in conjunction with the `configs` option for services.
## Supported Distributions
The following distributions are supported:
- Debian 11
## Required Arguments
For the required arguments look at the [`argument_specs.yaml`](./meta/argument_specs.yaml).
## `hosts`
The `hosts` for this role need to be the machines, for which you want to make sure the given Compose file is deployed and all services of it are up-to-date and running.
