A `docker-compose` wrapper for multiple configuration files with relative paths

docker-compose.sh

#!/usr/bin/env bash
# Docker compose wrapper with submodule support
# Reads all docker-compose.yaml files given with -f / --files and compiles one
# big docker-compose.yaml file before running docker-compose.
#
# This is useful when you have nested docker-compose subprojects in different
# folders which contain relative paths.
# see: https://github.com/docker/compose/issues/3874
#
# Environment:
#  - DOCKER_COMPOSE_CONFIG_VERSION: The docker-compose,yaml config file version, default: 2.1
#
# Requires:
#  - sponge (from moreutils https://joeyh.name/code/moreutils/)
#  - docker & docker-compose
#
# e.g.:
# $ chmod +x docker-compose.sh
# $ ./docker-compose.sh \
#     -f ./frontend/docker/docker-compose.yml \
#     -f ./proxy/docker/docker-compose.yml \
#     -p 016 up
