Docker Compose is a tool for defining and running multi-container Docker applications. It allows you to define your application services, networks, and volumes in a single configuration file, and then start and stop them all together. In this tutorial, we will guide you through the installation process of Docker Compose on Debian Latest.
Before installing Docker Compose, it is recommended to update the system to the latest available version. You can do this by running the following command:
sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade
If you haven't already installed Docker on your system, you can do so by following our tutorial on How to Install Docker on Debian Latest.
Once Docker is installed and running, we can download and install Docker Compose. The latest version of Docker Compose can be found on the official Docker Compose page at https://docs.docker.com/compose/install/.
To download the latest version of Docker Compose, run the following command:
sudo curl -L "https://github.com/docker/compose/releases/download/1.29.2/docker-compose-$(uname -s)-$(uname -m)" -o /usr/local/bin/docker-compose
This command downloads the Docker Compose binary and saves it to /usr/local/bin/docker-compose
.
After downloading Docker Compose, you need to make it executable. You can do this by running the following command:
sudo chmod +x /usr/local/bin/docker-compose
Once Docker Compose is installed, you can verify the installation by running the following command:
docker-compose --version
This command will print the version number of Docker Compose installed on your system.
In this tutorial, we have shown you how to install Docker Compose on Debian Latest. Docker Compose is a powerful tool that helps you define and run multi-container Docker applications. With Docker Compose, you can easily manage your application services, networks, and volumes in a single configuration file.
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!
