Compose ps not showing all running services

[dimsav]

Hello, and thank you for this amazing software.

There seems to be an issue with recognizing what services are running when we a custom docker file.

docker-compose -f docker-compose.custom.yml up

Now if we run docker-compose ps on the same directory, even though the services in that file will be running, ps won't show them in the list.

I don't know if this is the same issue or not, but additionally running docker-compose run {service} {command} won't work if the command is in this docker-compose.custom.yml file.

Version: docker-compose version 1.8.1, build 878cff1

Thank you for your time.

Hi @dimsav,

You need to provide -f for those subsequent commands as well, i.e.

docker-compose -f docker-compose.custom.yml ps
docker-compose -f docker-compose.custom.yml run {service} {command}

HTH!

Sending you lots of good karma, thank you so much @shin-.

Thank you! This appears to also apply to the -p PROJECT_NAME argument as well.
