# Installing Compose
First, install Docker version 1.3 or greater.
## Installing Compose

to install both Docker and boot2docker. Once boot2docker is running, set the environment
variables that'll configure Docker and Compose to talk to it:
To install Compose, you'll need to install Docker first. You'll then install

For complete instructions, or if you are on another platform, consult Docker's
[installation instructions](https://docs.docker.com/installation/).
Next, install Compose:
### Install Compose
curl -L https://github.com/docker/fig/releases/download/1.1.0-rc2/docker-compose-`uname -s`-`uname -m` > /usr/local/bin/docker-compose; chmod +x /usr/local/bin/docker-compose

Optionally, install [command completion](completion.html) for the bash shell.
curl -L https://github.com/docker/docker-compose/releases/download/1.1.0-rc2/docker-compose-`uname -s`-`uname -m` > /usr/local/bin/docker-compose
chmod +x /usr/local/bin/docker-compose
Releases are available for OS X and 64-bit Linux. Compose is also available as a Python
package if you're on another platform (or if you prefer that sort of thing):

Compose is available for OS X and 64-bit Linux. If you're on another platform,
Compose can also be installed as a Python package:
$ sudo pip install -U docker-compose
That should be all you need! Run `docker-compose --version` to see if it worked.
No further steps are required; Compose should now be successfully installed.
You can test the installation by running `docker-compose --version`.
