Default Labels

defaultLabels() merges a set of labels into every Service in the same source file. Declare it once; all services inherit it automatically.

import { defaultLabels, Service } from "@intentius/chant-lexicon-docker";

export const labels = defaultLabels({
  "com.example.team": "platform",
  "com.example.managed-by": "chant",
  "com.example.env": "production",
});

export const api = new Service({ image: "myapp:1.0" });
export const worker = new Service({ image: "myapp-worker:1.0" });

Both api and worker will have all three labels in the output.

Per-service override

Labels set directly on a service take precedence:

export const debug = new Service({
  image: "myapp:1.0",
  labels: {
    "com.example.env": "debug",  // overrides the default
  },
});

Scope

defaultLabels() applies to all Service entities discovered in the same build. To scope labels to a subset of services, use separate source directories and build each with --lexicon docker.
