✨ NAME ✨

docker-stack-deploy — deploy a brand new stack, or update one that already exists 💅

(also this whole thing lives in the Docker User Manuals, bestie 🫶)

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

docker stack deploy [OPTIONS] STACK

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

Deploy a new stack, or update an existing stack. That's it, that's the whole vibe — new stack, old stack, doesn't matter, this command handles it. 👑

---

🎀 OPTIONS 🎀

• -c, --compose-file=[] — the path to a Compose file, okay? or literally just - if you wanna read it from stdin like the main character you are 📖
• -d, --detach[=true] — dip out immediately instead of waiting around for the stack services to converge. no waiting, no watching, just leave 😌
• --prune[=false] — prune services that are no longer referenced. bye bye, not referenced, not invited 🧹
• -q, --quiet[=false] — suppress progress output. silence. peace. no spam in your terminal 🤫
• --resolve-image="always" — query the registry to resolve the image digest and supported platforms. the valid values are "always", "changed", and "never" — pick your fighter 🔍
• --with-registry-auth[=false] — send registry authentication details to the Swarm agents 🔐
