And they also publish this plugin for various arches, including x86_64, armhf and aarch64 (as opposed to the x86_64 only binaries for v1.X). Therefore we updated our recommended install option to utilize the plugin. + +You can install `docker compose` via the following commands: +``` +ARCH=$(uname -m) && [[ "${ARCH}" == "armv7l" ]] && ARCH="armv7" +sudo mkdir -p /usr/local/lib/docker/cli-plugins +sudo curl -SL "https://github.com/docker/compose/releases/latest/download/docker-compose-linux-${ARCH}" -o /usr/local/lib/docker/cli-plugins/docker-compose +sudo chmod +x /usr/local/lib/docker/cli-plugins/docker-compose +``` + +Assuming you already have docker (or at the very least docker-cli) installed, preferably from the official docker repos, running `docker compose version` should display the compose version. + +If you don't have docker installed yet, we recommend installing it via the following commands: +``` +curl -fsSL https://get.docker.com -o get-docker.sh +sh get-docker.sh +``` + +#### v1.X compatibility: +As v2 runs as a plugin instead of a standalone binary, it is invoked by `docker compose args` instead of `docker-compose args`. There are also some slight differences in how the yaml is operated as well. To make migration easier, Docker released a replacement binary for `docker-compose` on x86_64 and aarch64 platforms. More info on that can be found at the [upstream repo](https://github.com/docker/compose-switch). + +### Install Option 2: You can install docker-compose using our [docker-compose image](https://github.com/linuxserver/docker-docker-compose) via a run script. You can simply run the following commands on your system and you should have a functional install that you can call from anywhere as `docker-compose`: ``` -sudo curl -L --fail https://raw.githubusercontent.com/linuxserver/docker-docker-compose/master/run.sh -o /usr/local/bin/docker-compose +sudo curl -L --fail https://raw.githubusercontent.com/linuxserver/docker-docker-compose/v2/run.sh -o /usr/local/bin/docker-compose sudo chmod +x /usr/local/bin/docker-compose ``` In order to update the local image, you can run the following commands: ``` -docker pull linuxserver/docker-compose:"${DOCKER_COMPOSE_IMAGE_TAG:-latest}" +docker pull linuxserver/docker-compose:"${DOCKER_COMPOSE_IMAGE_TAG:-v2}" docker image prune -f ``` -To use the slimmer and more lightweight alpine based image, you can set an env var `DOCKER_COMPOSE_IMAGE_TAG=alpine` in your respective `.profile`. Alternatively you can set that var to a versioned image tag like `version-1.27.4` or `version-alpine-1.27.4` to pin it to a specific docker-compose version. - -### Install Option 2: -We also publish binaries for docker-compose in [this repo](https://github.com/linuxserver/docker-docker-compose/releases). There are two versions, one for glibc based systems like Ubuntu and Debian, and one for musl based systems like Alpine. The latter are marked with the `alpine` tag. Each version contains binaries for `amd64`, `armhf` and `arm64`. You can pull these binaries into your system via the following commands to have a functional docker-compose install: -``` -sudo curl -L --fail https://github.com/linuxserver/docker-docker-compose/releases/download/1.27.4-ls17/docker-compose-amd64 -o /usr/local/bin/docker-compose -sudo chmod +x /usr/local/bin/docker-compose -``` +The above commands will use the v2 images (although invoked by`docker-compose` instead of `docker compose`). If you'd like to use v1 images, you can set an env var `DOCKER_COMPOSE_IMAGE_TAG=alpine`, `DOCKER_COMPOSE_IMAGE_TAG=ubuntu` in your respective `.profile`. Alternatively you can set that var to a versioned image tag like `v2-2.4.1-r1` or `version-alpine-1.27.4` to pin it to a specific docker-compose version. ## Single service Usage -Here's a basic example for deploying a Linuxserver container with docker-compose: +Here's a basic example for deploying a Linuxserver container with docker compose: ```yaml version: "2.1" @@ -48,15 +63,15 @@ services: restart: unless-stopped ``` -If you save the above snippet in a file named `docker-compose.yml`, you can simply run `docker-compose up -d` from within the same folder and the heimdall image will be automatically pulled, and a container will be created and started. `up` means bring the services up, and `-d` means do it in the background. +If you save the above snippet in a file named `docker-compose.yml`, you can simply run `docker compose up -d` from within the same folder and the heimdall image will be automatically pulled, and a container will be created and started. `up` means bring the services up, and `-d` means do it in the background. -If you want to do it from a different folder or if you named the yaml file differently, ie. `heimdall.yml`, then you can define it in the command with `-f`: `docker-compose -f /path/to/heimdall.yml up -d` +If you want to do it from a different folder or if you named the yaml file differently, ie. `heimdall.yml`, then you can define it in the command with `-f`: `docker compose -f /path/to/heimdall.yml up -d` -To bring down the services, simply do `docker-compose down` or `docker-compose -f /path/to/heimdall.yml down` and all containers defined by the yml will be stopped and destroyed. +To bring down the services, simply do `docker compose down` or `docker compose -f /path/to/heimdall.yml down` and all containers defined by the yml will be stopped and destroyed. ## Multiple Service Usage -You can have multiple services managed by a single compose yaml.
