# Docker Compose
|
||||
|
||||
## Overview
|
||||
|
||||
Compose is a tool for defining and running complex applications with Docker.
|
||||
With Compose, you define a multi-container application in a single file, then
|
||||
spin your application up in a single command which does everything that needs to

## Release Notes
|
||||
|
||||
### Version 1.2.0 (April 7, 2015)
|
||||
|
||||
For complete information on this release, see the [1.2.0 Milestone project page](https://github.com/docker/compose/wiki/1.2.0-Milestone-Project-Page).
|
||||
In addition to bug fixes and refinements, this release adds the following:
|
||||
|
||||
* The `extends` keyword, which adds the ability to extend services by sharing common configurations. For details, see
|
||||
[PR #972](https://github.com/docker/compose/pull/1088).
|
||||
|
||||
* Better integration with Swarm. Swarm will now schedule inter-dependent
|
||||
containers on the same host. For details, see
|
||||
[PR #972](https://github.com/docker/compose/pull/972).

## Using Compose in production
|
||||
|
||||
While **Compose is not yet considered production-ready**, you can try using it
|
||||
for production deployments if you're feeling brave. Production-readiness is an
|
||||
active, ongoing project - see the
|
||||
While **Compose is not yet considered production-ready**, if you'd like to experiment and learn more about using it in production deployments, this guide

||||
can help.

||||
The project is actively working towards becoming
|
||||
production-ready; to learn more about the progress being made, check out the

||||
on how it's coming along and what needs to be done.

When deploying to production, you'll almost certainly want to make changes to
|
||||
your app configuration that are more appropriate to a live environment. This may

changes may include:
|
||||
|
||||
- Removing any volume bindings for application code, so that code stays inside
|

the container and can't be changed from outside
|

- Binding to different ports on the host
|

- Setting environment variables differently (e.g. to decrease the verbosity of

For this reason, you'll probably want to define a separate Compose file, say
|
||||
`production.yml`, which specifies production-appropriate configuration.

### Deploying changes
|
||||
|
||||
When you make changes to your app code, you'll need to rebuild your image and
|
||||
recreate your app containers. If the service you want to redeploy is called
|
||||
`web`, this will look like:
|
||||
recreate your app's containers. To redeploy a service called
|
||||
`web`, you would use:
|
||||
|
||||
$ docker-compose build web
|
||||
$ docker-compose up --no-deps -d web
|
||||
|
||||
This will first rebuild the image for `web` and then stop, destroy and recreate

||||
This will first rebuild the image for `web` and then stop, destroy, and recreate

*just* the `web` service. The `--no-deps` flag prevents Compose from also

||||
recreating any services which `web` depends on.

You can use Compose to deploy an app to a remote Docker host by setting the
|
||||
`DOCKER_HOST`, `DOCKER_TLS_VERIFY` and `DOCKER_CERT_PATH` environment variables
|
||||
appropriately. [Docker Machine](https://docs.docker.com/machine) makes managing
|
||||
local and remote Docker hosts very easy, and is recommended even if you're not
|

deploying remotely.

### Running Compose on a Swarm cluster
|

|

[Docker Swarm](https://docs.docker.com/swarm), a Docker-native clustering
|

system, exposes the same API as a single Docker host, which means you can use
|
||||
Compose against a Swarm instance and run your apps across multiple hosts.
|
||||
|
||||
Compose/Swarm integration is still in the experimental stage, and Swarm is still

in beta, but if you're interested to try it out, check out the
