Docker Compose Creator

Design and manage multi-container applications with Docker Compose for both development and production deployments.

When to Use

• Setting up local development environments
• Defining multi-service application stacks
• Managing service dependencies
• Configuring networking between services
• Environment variable management
• Production deployments (single host)
• Testing multi-service interactions

Development vs Production

Development (docker-compose.yml)

version: '3.14'

services:
  api:
    build: ./api
    ports:
      - "3000:3000"
    volumes:
      - ./api/src:/app/src  # Hot reload
    environment:
      - NODE_ENV=development
    command: npm run dev

Production (docker-compose.prod.yml)

version: '3.14'

services:
  api:
    image: myregistry/myapp:1.0.0
    restart: unless-stopped
    environment:
      - NODE_ENV=production
    healthcheck:
      test: ["CMD", "curl", "-f", "http://localhost:3000/health"]
      interval: 30s
      timeout: 5s
      retries: 3

Running with Override

# Development
docker compose up

# Production
docker compose -f docker-compose.yml -f docker-compose.prod.yml up -d

Common Commands

# Start services
docker compose up

# Start in background
docker compose up -d

# Stop services
docker compose down

# Stop without removing volumes
docker compose stop

# Remove containers, networks, volumes
docker compose down -v

# View logs
docker compose logs -f

# Specific service logs
docker compose logs -f api

# Execute command in service
docker compose exec api npm test

# Run one-off command
docker compose run api npm test

# View service status
docker compose ps

# Rebuild images
docker compose up --build

# Remove and rebuild
docker compose down --rmi all && docker compose up --build

Advanced Patterns

Service Override

# docker-compose.override.yml (git-ignored)
services:
  api:
    volumes:
      - ./src:/app/src  # Local development
    environment:
      - DEBUG=true

Multiple Configurations

# Production with monitoring
docker compose \
  -f docker-compose.yml \
  -f docker-compose.prod.yml \
  -f docker-compose.monitoring.yml \
  up -d

Environment-Specific Files

# Load .env.${ENVIRONMENT}
docker compose --env-file .env.production up -d

Production Deployment Checklist

• All services have healthchecks
• Services use restart: unless-stopped
• Sensitive data in .env (git-ignored)
• Volumes for persistent data
• Resource limits set
• Logging configured
• Networks isolated
• Use specific image tags (never latest)
• Test with docker compose up -d && docker compose ps

Troubleshooting

# Check service status
docker compose ps

# View detailed service info
docker compose exec postgres psql -U user -c "\l"

# Network diagnosis
docker compose exec api ping postgres

# Resource usage
docker stats

# Rebuild and restart
docker compose down --rmi local
docker compose up --build
