Analyze Docker Compose files for services, images, builds, ports, volumes, networks, dependencies, environment variables, and common container configuration issues.
Paste a compose.yaml or docker-compose.yml file to inspect services, ports, volumes, networks, dependencies, and common configuration risks.
Tip: Use Ctrl+Enter or Cmd+Enter to analyze quickly.

More tools you may find useful.
Analyze Dockerfiles for base images, build stages, instructions, ports, users, environment variables, caching opportunities, and common containerization issues.
Analyze Kubernetes manifests to inspect resources, workloads, replicas, containers, images, labels, selectors, references, and common configuration issues.
Validate .env files, detect duplicate variables, check variable names and identify common environment configuration issues.
Analyze AWS IAM policies for wildcard permissions, overly broad access, potentially risky actions, and common policy configuration issues.
Docker Compose Analyzer is a browser-based static analysis tool for inspecting Docker Compose YAML files. It parses Compose services, images, builds, ports, volumes, networks, dependencies, environment configuration, and selected runtime settings, then highlights common configuration and security risks.
Docker Compose files describe multi-container applications and define how services, networks, volumes, images, and runtime settings work together. As Compose files grow, configuration problems can become difficult to spot by manually reviewing YAML.
Docker Compose Analyzer provides a structured view of a Compose file and highlights configuration patterns that deserve attention before the file is used in development, CI/CD, or deployment workflows.
The analyzer parses the Compose YAML and extracts service-level configuration before running a set of static checks.
The analyzer identifies patterns that can lead to operational, portability, or security problems. These findings are recommendations rather than proof that a Compose configuration is incorrect.
A Compose file can define networking, storage, credentials, exposed ports, and container privileges in a single document. Reviewing these settings before deployment can help catch mistakes before they become runtime problems.
Static analysis is particularly useful during code review and CI/CD workflows because it can provide a quick second look at configuration without requiring access to the target Docker environment.
Docker Compose Analyzer performs static parsing and analysis in your browser. The tool does not need a Docker daemon, Kubernetes cluster, or remote infrastructure connection to inspect the YAML.
Because Compose files may contain credentials or other sensitive configuration, avoid sharing files containing real secrets. Even when analysis is performed locally, you should follow your organization's security and secret-management policies.
This tool performs static analysis of the supplied Compose YAML. It does not start containers, contact a Docker daemon, pull images, resolve runtime dependencies, inspect the host, or determine whether an application will actually work at runtime.
A warning or informational finding does not necessarily mean that a configuration is wrong. Some settings are intentional and depend on the application's architecture and deployment environment.
No. It only parses and analyzes the supplied Compose YAML. It does not start containers or connect to a Docker daemon.
It can identify several common configuration risks, such as privileged mode, potentially exposed ports, possible secrets in environment variables, host path mounts, and additional Linux capabilities. It is not a complete security scanner.
Yes. The Docker Compose Specification does not require the older top-level version field, and the analyzer treats files without one as Compose Spec configurations.
No. The analyzer is a static YAML analysis tool and does not require access to your Docker host, containers, images, or networks.
Yes, as a supplementary configuration review. Findings should still be evaluated against your application's requirements, security policies, and deployment environment.
