A curated collection of ready-to-use Process-Compose recipes for common development and infrastructure scenarios.

Process-Compose Recipes are pre-configured process-compose.yaml files for popular services and applications. Instead of writing complex configurations from scratch, you can pull tested recipes and customize them for your needs.

• Process-Compose v1.75 or later

# Search for available recipes
process-compose recipe search postgres

# Pull a recipe to your local machine
process-compose recipe pull postgres-basic

# List your installed recipes
process-compose recipe list

# Run a recipe
process-compose -f $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/recipes/postgres-basic/process-compose.yaml

Complexity: ⭐ = Simple, ⭐⭐⭐⭐ = Advanced

• postgres-basic: Single PostgreSQL instance with persistence
• mysql-replication: MySQL master-slave setup
• mongodb-replica: MongoDB replica set configuration

• nats-cluster: NATS messaging cluster
• kafka-cluster: Apache Kafka cluster setup
• rabbitmq-cluster: RabbitMQ cluster setup

• redis-sentinel: Redis with high availability
• memcached-cluster: Distributed Memcached setup
• minio-cluster: MinIO object storage cluster

• prometheus-grafana: Monitoring stack
• elk-stack: Elasticsearch, Logstash, Kibana
• jaeger-tracing: Distributed tracing setup

Each recipe directory contains:

recipe-name/
├── recipe.yaml           # Recipe metadata and configuration
├── process-compose.yaml  # Main process configuration
├── README.md             # Recipe-specific documentation
└── configs/              # Additional configuration files (optional)
    ├── app.conf
    └── init.sql

Create override files to modify recipes without changing the original:

# my-postgres-override.yaml
version: "0.5"

processes:
  postgres:
    environment:
      - "POSTGRES_DB=myproject"
      - "POSTGRES_PASSWORD=mysecret"

process-compose -f $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/recipes/postgres-basic/process-compose.yaml -f my-postgres-override.yaml

# Search all recipes
process-compose recipe search

# Search by name
process-compose recipe search postgres

# Search by tags
process-compose recipe search --tags database,sql

# Search by author
process-compose recipe search --author community

# Pull a recipe
process-compose recipe pull <recipe-name>

# Force pull (overwrite existing)
process-compose recipe pull <recipe-name> --force

# List local recipes
process-compose recipe list

# Remove a recipe
process-compose recipe remove <recipe-name>

# Show a recipe
process-compose recipe show <recipe-name>

# Run a recipe directly
process-compose -f $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/recipes/<recipe-name>/process-compose.yaml

# Run with custom environment
POSTGRES_PASSWORD=secret process-compose -f ~/.process-compose/recipes/postgres-basic/process-compose.yaml

# Run with override file
process-compose -f ~/.process-compose/recipes/postgres-basic/process-compose.yaml -f my-overrides.yaml

We welcome contributions! Here's how you can help:

1. Fork this repository
2. Create a new recipe directory following the naming convention: service-variant
3. Add required files:
   • recipe.yaml - Recipe metadata
   • process-compose.yaml - Process configuration
   • README.md - Recipe documentation
4. Test your recipe thoroughly
5. Submit a Pull Request

• Use semantic versioning for recipe versions
• Include comprehensive health checks for all services
• Support customization through environment variables
• Provide sensible defaults for all configuration options
• Document dependencies and requirements clearly
• Test on multiple platforms when possible

• Use lowercase with hyphens: service-variant
• Be descriptive but concise: postgres-basic, redis-sentinel
• Include complexity indicators: kafka-simple, kafka-cluster
