imcompatible with docker compose 1.23

[DeoLeung]

seems the container naming schema changed, which may be the cause that it can't find the containers

I roll compose back to 1.22.0 and it works

Took me a while to figure out why it wasn't working. I can confirm the new naming schema breaks the image.

A workaround is to use container_name to change the name of your linked container back to what haproxy expects.

Example from my compose file:

services:
  rails:
    container_name: rails_server_rails_1
   ...

  haproxy:
    links:
      - rails
    ...

That fixed it for me in 1.23.1

Thanks @jorihardman 🎉

one thing I had to figure out. You need to have the env var LINK_MODE:'new' for that workaround to work

the new parser handles the container_name

Introduced here (I know, a while back)
