It’s not clear if the Ansible module **docker-service** supports the _-d_ command line option. I would like to detach my services after bringing them up with docker-compose

`docker-compose up -d`

Alternatively I’ll have to use a **shell** or **command** module to invoke the same command.

Any thoughts?
