Kompose is an official Kubernetes CLI tool that converts Docker Compose files into Kubernetes (or OpenShift) resource manifests such as Deployments and Services. It helps developers familiar with docker-compose migrate local multi-container setups to Kubernetes with a single command.

Use cases

  • convert docker-compose file to kubernetes manifests
  • migrate local compose app to kubernetes
  • generate kubernetes deployments and services from compose.yaml
  • deploy docker compose stack to kubernetes cluster
  • convert compose file to openshift resources
  • move from docker compose to kubectl apply workflow

When to choose

  • you have an existing docker-compose setup and want a starting point for Kubernetes manifests
  • you want a quick one-command conversion without hand-writing YAML
  • you target Kubernetes or OpenShift and want an official Kubernetes project

When to avoid

  • you need exact 1-1 conversion with full Kubernetes feature coverage - conversions are approximate and need manual tuning
  • you are authoring production Kubernetes manifests from scratch - use Helm or Kustomize instead
  • you need conversion to orchestrators other than Kubernetes/OpenShift
