Im trying to build libreNMS, but [compose file](https://github.com/librenms/docker/blob/master/examples/compose/compose.yml) seems not compatible.

It seems has issues with the name `data/name should be object` and the services `data/services should NOT have additional properties` attributes.

Maybe someone could help? Is there already any existing libreNMS Project/App?

Thx a lot,  
Meg

Hey @Megachip , just to confirm you are attempting to push that compose file to a balena fleet?

At a high level here are the compose properties we try to support:

> **[docker-compose.yml fields | balena](https://docs.balena.io/reference/supervisor/docker-compose/)**
>
> docker-compose.yml fields supported by balena

So I do see some incompatibilities in your compose file.

1. balena only supports named volumes, not bind volumes ([docs](https://docs.balena.io/learn/develop/multicontainer/#named-volumes))
2. balena does not support the env\_file instruction ([docs](https://docs.balena.io/reference/supervisor/docker-compose/#supported-fields))
3. balena does not support the container\_name instruction ([docs](https://docs.balena.io/reference/supervisor/docker-compose/#known-unsupported-fields))

The other fields should be fine, but note that the long form of ports may not be supported by all versions of the supervisor, so I suggest the short syntax where possible.

```yaml
    ports:
      - 8000:8000/tcp

```

I hope this helps!
