compose.yaml name breaks when using vars ${VAR}

[lucasfcnunes]

Description

Setup

# compose.yaml
name: ${COMPOSE_PROJECT_NAME}
services:
  # ...

# .env
COMPOSE_PROJECT_NAME=abc_123

Results

$ docker compose config
name: abc_123
services:
  # ...

Issue

Instead of doing the expansion as above, devcontainer now reads it as compose_project_name - not expanding the variable. (${COMPOSE_PROJECT_NAME} -> compose_project_name)

It breaks the names of the project, volumes, networks, etc - empty container

It happened first today on https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=ms-vscode-remote.remote-containers @ v0.369.0.

The v0.362.0 uses the folder name. My var is always the same as the folder name that's why I only experienced it today.

@chrmarti can you help me?

Preparing a fix. You can use the previous stable version of Dev Containers 0.362.0 until we get the fix out.

This is fixed in Dev Containers 0.372.0-pre-release. Could you give that a try and let me know if it fixes the issue for you? Thanks.
