Docker Compose is a tool designed for developers to define and run multi-container Docker applications. Installing Docker Compose on your OpenSUSE Latest system is a straightforward process, and this tutorial will guide you through the steps.
Before installing Docker Compose, ensure that your system has the following prerequisites:
Docker Compose requires Python to be installed on your system. If you do not have Python installed, you can install it using zypper, the package manager for OpenSUSE latest.
Open a terminal window and type the following command to install Python:
sudo zypper install python3
To install pip, the package installer for Python, you can use the following commands:
sudo zypper install python3-pip
With Python and pip installed, you can now install Docker Compose. Type the following command to download the latest version of Docker Compose:
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
Note that we are using version 1.29.2 in this tutorial. If a newer version is available, you can replace the version number in the above command with the latest version number.
Once the download is complete, you need to set the correct permissions for the Docker Compose binary. Type the following command:
sudo chmod +x /usr/local/bin/docker-compose
To verify that Docker Compose is installed and working correctly, type the following command:
docker-compose --version
This should display the version number of Docker Compose, indicating that it has been successfully installed on your system.
In this tutorial, you have learned how to install Docker Compose on OpenSUSE Latest. 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!
