docker capability

docker adds a docker-compose.yml to your Go service for running local development dependencies with a single command.

What You Get

• docker-compose.yml with service dependencies
• .env.example for environment variables

When to Use

Use docker whenever your service depends on external infrastructure — databases, caches, message brokers, or third-party services. Docker Compose lets every developer spin up the full stack locally without manual installation.

Add to Your Service

verikt new my-service --language go --cap docker
# or add to an existing service:
verikt add docker
