add a root level application identifier field
So right now, passing in multiple files does not work (#167), and we will be implementing merging of OpenCompose files https://github.com/redhat-developer/opencompose/issues/167#issuecomment-308050943 as a default behavior, but I think it would be cool to have a root level optional identifier like app or application or namespace, which allows defining the name of the larger application.
An example use case would be when we do a -
opencompose convert -f wordpress.yaml -f nginx.yaml
- nginx.yaml -
version: 0.1-dev
app: nginx # note: the root level application identifier is nginx
services:
- name: web # note: the name of the service is web
containers:
- image: nginx
name: nginx
ports:
- port: 80
- wordpress.yaml -
version: '0.1-dev'
app: wordpress # note: the root level application identifier is wordpress
services:
- name: database
containers:
- image: mariadb:10
name: mariadb
ports:
- port: 3306
- name: web # note: the name of the service is web
containers:
- image: wordpress:4
name: wordpress
ports:
- port: 80
type: external
So, when we pass these 2 files to opencompose convert, then the service web from app: nginx and app: wordpress does NOT get merged because of different root level app identifier.
This is more for namespacing the applications in the spec itself.
Thoughts?
