Awesome Compose

A curated list of Docker Compose samples.

These samples provide a starting point for how to integrate different services using a Compose file and to manage their deployment with Docker Compose.

Contents

• Samples of Docker Compose applications with multiple integrated services.
• Single service samples.
• Basic setups for different platforms (not production ready - useful for personal use).

Getting started

These instructions will get you through the bootstrap phase of creating and deploying samples of containerized applications with Docker Compose.

Prerequisites

• Make sure that you have Docker and Docker Compose installed
  • Windows or macOS: Install Docker Desktop
  • Linux: Install Docker and then Docker Compose
• Download some or all of the samples from this repository.

Running a sample

The root directory of each sample contains the docker-compose.yaml which describes the configuration of service components. All samples can be run in a local environment by going into the root directory of each one and executing:

docker-compose up -d

Check the README.md of each sample to get more details on the structure and what is the expected output. To stop and remove the all containers of the sample application run:

docker-compose down
