### Use `-p` to specify a project name
Each configuration has a project name. If you supply a `-p` flag, you can specify a project name. If you dont
specify the flag, Compose uses the current directory name.
Project name can also be set by `COMPOSE_PROJECT_NAME` environment variable.
Many Compose subcommands can be run without a Compose file by passing
the project name.
Each configuration has a project name. Compose sets the project name using
the following mechanisms, in order of precedence:
- The `-p` command line flag
- The `COMPOSE_PROJECT_NAME` environment variable
- The top level `name:` variable from the config file (or the last `name:`
from a series of config files specified using `-f`)
- The `basename` of the project directory containing the config file (or
containing the first config file specified using `-f`)
- The `basename` of the current directory if no config file is specified
Project names must contain only lowercase letters, decimal digits, dashes,
and underscores, and must begin with a lowercase letter or decimal digit. If
the `basename` of the project directory or current directory violates this
constraint, you must use one of the other mechanisms.
```console
$ docker compose -p my_project ps -a
