How to Use 1Password Connect with Docker Compose workloads?

Hi PingLoss2​ ,

Thanks for writing in. The key to this is the 1Password CLI running on the machine that executes the "docker compose up" command.  You'll need to install the CLI and configure it to work with Connect. Here is a guide on that - https://developer.1password.com/docs/connect/cli

Next up will be the coordination of launching docker compose with the prefilled credentials inserted by 1Password.  Here's an example dockerfile

version: "3.8"
services:
  database:
    image: postgres:16
    environment:
      POSTGRES_USER: "op://my-vault/pgdb/username"
      POSTGRES_PASSWORD: "op://my-vault/pgdb/password"
    ports:
      - "5432:5432"

You'll see the POSTGRES credentials using the 1Password reference.  

Next will be the starting of Docker Compose

op run -- docker compose up

Then your environment variables will have been loaded in from 1Password's Vault.

Let me know if you have any additional troubles! 

Thanks,

Phil
