dependent containers don't work anymore because of network_mode
whenever I try to run a podman container, it'll through:
Error: running container create option: container has joined pod 4f[long_string]b1f and dependency container 34[long_string]9cd is not a member of the pod: invalid argument
An example of a dependent container compose file looks like this:
Generally to depend on a container it needs to be in the same compose project, so if you move gluetun into the one with qbittorrent it should work fine.
But that's like the whole point of docker compose. If you are just going to have 1 container per file what benefit are you even getting out of using a compose file?
Docker compose is just a setting file for a container. It's the same advantage you get using an ssh config file instead of typing out and specifying a user, IP, port, and private key to use each time. What's the advantage to putting all my containers into one compose file? It's not like I'm running docker commands from the terminal manually to start and stop them unless something goes wrong, I let systemd handle that. And I'd much rather the systemd be able to individually start, stop, and monitor individual containers rather than have to bring them all down if one fails.
You're attempting to run the qb container in the gluetun network stack. You need to give it time to start. When they're in the same compose file they can be ordered properly but when they're different files it doesn't care.
Check out the full options (long form) to depends: and see if you can add a delay and a health check.
