docker-compose up

docker-compose builds, (re)creates, starts, and attaches to containers for a service.

• https://docs.docker.com/compose/reference/up/

Examples

• docker-compose up -d

-d daemon

• docker-compose up --help
• docker-compose up
• docker-compose up --timeout 600
• docker-compose up SERVICE_NAME
• docker-compose up -d SERVICE_NAME
• docker-compose -f NAME_OF_YOUR_FILE up

Builds, (re)creates, starts, and attaches to containers for a service.

• docker-compose up --force-recreate

https://docs.docker.com/compose/reference/up/ If there are existing containers for a service, and the service’s configuration or image was changed after the container’s creation, docker-compose up picks up the changes by stopping and recreating the containers (preserving mounted volumes). To prevent Compose from picking up changes, use the --no-recreate flag.

docker-compose up, and docker-compose start will now start containers in parallel where possible.

• docker-compose up
• docker-compose up SERVICE_NAME

docker-compose up -d
Recreating SERVICE_NAME... done

• Build containers but do not start them:

docker-compose up --no-start

• Upgrade a container:

docker-compose pull && docker-compose up -d

docker-compose up -d SERVICE_NAME
Creating volume "VOLUME_NAME" with default driver
Creating SERVICE_NAME ... done

• Using specific docker compose file:

docker-compose -f NAME_OF_YOUR_FILE up

Examples with errors

docker-compose up
