JASYPT_MASTER_PASSWORD=pass
POSTGRES_CONTAINER_PASSWORD=pass
POSTGRES_CONTAINER_DB=db
POSTGRES_CONTAINER_USER=user
POSTGRES_CONTAINER_URL=jdbc:postgresql://container_name:port/db
TELEGRAM_BOT_NAME=name
TELEGRAM_BOT_API_TOKEN=token
JAR_VERSION=x.x.x-SNAPSHOT
DOCKER_HUB_USER=user

Builds every microservice

docker compose build 

Build using docker buildx command line

Have to run this command for every dockerfile manually
