Only a single Compose file is accepted. If your configuration is split between multiple Compose files, e.g. a base configuration and environment-specific overrides, you can combine these by passing them to docker-compose config with the -f option and redirecting the merged output into a new file.

$ docker-compose -f docker-compose.yml -f docker-compose.prod.yml config > docker-stack.yml
$ docker stack deploy --compose-file docker-stack.yml vossibility
