Docker Compose is a tool used to define and run multi-container Docker applications. In this tutorial, we will walk you through the process of installing Docker Compose on Arch Linux.
Before we begin, make sure that you have a basic understanding of Docker and have already installed Docker on your Arch Linux system.
Docker Compose is written in Python, so the first step is to install Python and Pip on your system.
Open your terminal and run the following command to install Python:
sudo pacman -S python
Next, install Pip using the following command:
sudo pacman -S python-pip
Now that you have Python and Pip installed on your system, you can proceed with installing Docker Compose. To install the latest version of Docker Compose, run the following command:
sudo pip install docker-compose
This will download and install the latest version of Docker Compose from the official Docker registry.
You can verify that Docker Compose has been installed by running the following command:
docker-compose --version
This will display the version of Docker Compose installed on your system.
To update Docker Compose to the latest version, run the following command:
sudo pip install --upgrade docker-compose
This will download and install the latest version of Docker Compose, replacing the older version installed on your system.
In this tutorial, we have shown you how to install Docker Compose on Arch Linux. With Docker Compose installed, you can now define and run multi-container Docker applications with ease.
If you want to self-host in an easy, hands free way, need an external IP address, or simply want your data in your own hands, give IPv6.rs a try!
Alternatively, for the best virtual desktop, try Shells!
