Introduction to Docker Compose
What Is Docker Compose?
Docker Compose is a tool that helps you define and manage multi-container Docker applications. When your project needs several services—such as a web server, database, and cache—Docker Compose allows you to describe all these components in a single file and control them together.
This approach streamlines development and testing, making it easy to:
- Launch entire application stacks with just one command;
- Stop or rebuild all containers at once;
- Avoid starting each container separately;
- Eliminate manual networking configuration;
- Automate tasks and ensure consistency across environments.
Use Docker Compose to simplify your workflow and maintain reliable, repeatable setups for complex applications.
The docker-compose Command-Line Tool
The primary way you interact with Docker Compose is through the docker-compose command-line tool. This tool reads configuration from a file, typically named docker-compose.yml, where you declare all the services, networks, and volumes your application requires.
With commands such as docker-compose up to start all services and docker-compose down to stop and remove them, you can quickly manage complex setups. Other features include:
- Building images;
- Scaling services;
- Viewing logs;
- Running one-off commands inside containers.
Docker Compose is especially useful for local development, automated testing, and any scenario where you need to orchestrate multiple containers efficiently.
