The Docker Compose Specification
I'm not a devops person at all, but this pile of abstractions seems like it's going the wrong way. Like, this seems almost like a parody?<p>You have this problem where you want to set up infrastructure in an abstract way, so you come up with a way to write some infrastructure requirements and now you have a program that does all the actions necessary to take your setup from wherever it is, to what you specified.<p>Then you have multiple of those systems, and it gets confusing. So you come up with a generic way to specify the abstractions that can be sort of compiled into any of the flavors, so that you can set up infrastructure using any of the sub-abstractions available, instead of only a specific one.<p>This has the smell of a FactoryFactoryFactory sort of thing. Like, if this whole cottage industry were my architecture project I would be saying to myself "This is too much, a rickety, foot-gun-laden tower, destined to crumble. I've obviously chosen a poor abstraction, lemme back way the hell up."<p>Am I just totally wrong here? I feel like I'm taking crazy pills.
