condition form of depends_on in docker-compose version 3

As version 3 no longer supports the condition form of depends_on, what is the alternative way to wait for a container to be started completely?

From 1.27.0, 2.x and 3.x are merged with COMPOSE_SPEC schema.

version is now optional. So, you can just remove it and specify a condition as before:

services:
  web:
    build: .
    depends_on:
      redis:
        condition: service_healthy
  redis:
    image: redis
    healthcheck:
      test: ["CMD", "redis-cli", "ping"]
      interval: 1s
      timeout: 3s
      retries: 30
