feature request to add dclint (lints docker-compose.yml files)

[wesley-dean-flexion]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

No, not a problem. I just found a tool last night that lints Docker compose files and it looks pretty nifty. Cheers, @zavoloklom!

Describe the solution you'd like

Please add dclint to the DOCKER descriptor

Describe alternatives you've considered

I briefly considered not requesting we add this new linter before opting to share it with the group and let others provide their thoughts.

Additional context

The tool a Node package that can be installed with npm install dclint so I'm hoping we can do something like:

- linter_name: "dclint"
  is_formatter: true
  linter_repo: "https://github.com/zavoloklom/docker-compose-linter"
  config_file_name: ".dclintrc"
  cli_lint_mode: "list_of_files"
  cli_lint_fix_args_name: "--fix"
  cli_config_arg_name: "--config"

  examples:
    - "dclint --config .dclintrc ."
    - "dclint path/to/docker-compose.yml"

  install:
    npm:
      - dclint

(it would need a few more configuration directives for the linter_rules.* stuff, the icon, etc.)

What do you all think?

@wesley-dean-flexion @zavoloklom > dclint looks really interesting :)

As the project is quite new, I prefer to wait for wide user adoption before adding it ^^

Meanwhile, you can create a MegaLinter plugin to start using it today , i'll be glad to add the link in documentation :)

@nvuillam Understood. I've been working through something with the author, @zavoloklom , and he's been extremely responsive, patient, and open to feedback. I only see great things coming from that project!

Thank you.
