Docker Compose is a tool for defining and running multi-container Docker applications. It is used to orchestrate containers and manage their dependencies. In this tutorial, we will show you how to install Docker Compose on Ubuntu Server Latest.
Before you start with this tutorial, you should have:
Before installing Docker Compose, you need to install Docker engine on your system. You can follow the official Docker installation guide for Ubuntu [here] (https://docs.docker.com/engine/install/ubuntu/).
The following command will download the latest version of Docker Compose from the official Github repository:
sudo curl -L "https://github.com/docker/compose/releases/download/1.28.0/docker-compose-$(uname -s)-$(uname -m)" -o /usr/local/bin/docker-compose
If you want to install a specific version of Docker Compose, you can replace the version number in the above command with your desired version.
After downloading Docker Compose, set the appropriate permissions so that it can be executed:
sudo chmod +x /usr/local/bin/docker-compose
Finally, add the Docker Compose binary to your PATH environment variable by creating a symbolic link to the /usr/local/bin/ directory:
sudo ln -s /usr/local/bin/docker-compose /usr/bin/docker-compose
You can verify the installation of Docker Compose by running the following command:
docker-compose --version
This command should display the version number of Docker Compose that you installed.
In this tutorial, you successfully installed Docker Compose on Ubuntu Server Latest. Now you can use Docker Compose to manage your Docker containers and their dependencies.
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!
