Compose: Enable output of `depends_on` services

[whitecolor]

When docker-compose up my-service is run it will also start services that my-service depends_on, but it won't show output of those services.

It would be useful to have option for docker-compose that would also turn on output for dependencies.

You can use docker-compose logs to do exactly that, I think.

you mean start for example detached docker-compose up -d my-service and then docker-compose logs here i still need to enumerate all the services by name

@whitecolor docker-compose logs -f will show logs of all services

For me, when I do docker-compose up app - I only want to see app logs, not dependant services.

I guess this is a pretty subjective issue :+1:

[whitecolor]

well actually really docker-compose logs -f service1 service2 may do the trick I need, I believe this request/question maybe closed.

I would've loved to see this feature, and the proposed workaround is a bit of a hassle.

I've just implemented this functionality in docker-dev. So, @whitecolor's example becomes: docker-dev up2 my-service.

I think any decent web developer/team currently should have (or already has) their own meta-framework on top of used infrastructure tools like a docker/compose. It is hard to invent one-fit-all-solution to automate everyone's workflows.

How would you add the necessary docker-compose logs command to something like this? docker-compose -f ci.config.yml up --exit-code-from test-runner test-runner
