Define and run multi-container applications with Docker
Docker Compose is a tool for running multi-container applications on Docker
defined using the Compose file format. A Compose file is used to define how the
one or more containers that make up your application are configured. Once you
have a Compose file, you can create and start your application with a single
command: docker compose up.
About update and backward compatibility
Docker Compose V2 is a major version bump release of Docker Compose. It has
been completely rewritten from scratch in Golang (V1 was in Python). The
installation instructions for Compose V2 differ from V1. V2 is not a standalone
binary anymore, and installation scripts will have to be adjusted. Some
commands are different.
For a smooth transition from legacy docker-compose 1.xx, please consider
installing compose-switch to translate docker-compose ... commands into Compose
V2's docker compose .... . Also check V2's --compatibility flag.
