Create a collection of interconnected containers, networks, and volumes with a single command.</small>

The most important commands regarding docker-compose:

docker-compose up: create all containers, networks and volumes described in our docker-compose file
docker-compose up -d: same as above, but run containers in detached mode
docker-compose -f <filename> up: create containers based on a different docker-compose file
docker-compose down: remove all containers and networks
docker-compose down -v: remove all containers, networks, and volumes

The docker-compose tool uses files written in a data-serialization language called YAML (extension is .yml)

At the top level of each file, include the version of docker-compose, then you can list services (containers), plus any volumes or networks if necessary.

version: '3.8'

services:
  # any services go here
networks:
  # networks go here
volumes:
  # volumes
services
 # The next level down will be the name of the service/container.

Keyword Purpose

• build: specify where to find the Dockerfile to build image
• image: can name a newly built image, or specify name of image to build from
• volumes: specify volumes or bind mounts to connect to image

networks will connect container to specified networks environment add environment variables ports publish ports

services:
  service_name:
    build:
        context: ./folder_with_dockerfile
        dockerfile: Dockerfile-alternate.Dockerfile
    image: whatevername # like the -t flag when you are building your image
    # if you don't have a build command, Docker will try to build from an existing image with that name
    volumes: 
        # with a named volume - also list name under top-level volumes
        - volume_name:/path/to/volume/on/container
        # for bind mounts
        - ./path/locally:/path/to/bind/mount/on/container
    # by default, docker-compose will create a single network for all containers
    networks:
        - network_name
    environment:
      DATABASE_URL: postgresql://username:password/localhost
      ANOTHER_VARIABLE: more-stuff
    ports:
      # <external port>:<internal port>
      -8000:80
  second_service_name:
    #... all the keywords for this service

If you include any named volumes, list their names under the top-level “volumes” key.<br Anonymous volumes and bind mounts don’t need to be listed.

volumes:
  some_named_volume:
  another_named_volume:

If you don’t specify a network, all the containers in the docker-compose file will be put onto one network together.<br If you want multiple networks, specify all the names under the top-level volumes key.

networks:
  network_name:
  second_network_name:
