basically what I'm wanting to do is run Drone CI on a Now instance.

Now accepts a Dockerfile when deploying, but not a [docker-compose.yml file](issue number), drone is configured using a docker-compose.yml file.

Basically I'm wanting to know whether you can run a docker-compose.yml file as part of a Dockerfile and how this is setup, currently I've been trying something like this:

FROM docker:latest

# add the docker-compose.yml file to the current working directory
WORKDIR /
ADD . /

# install docker-compose
RUN \
  apk add --update --no-cache python3 && \
  pip3 install docker-compose

RUN docker-compose up

and various variations of the above in my attempts to get something up and running, in the above case it is complaining about the docker daemon not running

Any help greatly appreciated, other solutions that acheive the above end result also welcomed

Dockerfile is creating docker container and in that container you are using docker-compose

  1. you dont have docker daemon running inside docker container
  2. docker compose also needs to be installed refer this doc https://devopscube.com/run-docker-in-docker/ to use docker in docker
