Installing Docker Compose on a Linux system requires the following steps:
First, make sure you have Docker installed. If it is not installed, please follow the official Docker documentation to install it.
Open a terminal or command line interface and download the Docker Compose binary with the following command:
sudo curl -L "https://github.com/docker/compose/releases/latest/download/docker-compose-$(uname -s)-$(uname -m)" -o /usr/local/bin/ docker-compose
adds executable permissions to the binary:
sudo chmod +x /usr/local/bin/docker-compose
creates a symlink to make the docker-compose command globally accessible:
sudo ln -s /usr/local/bin /docker-compose /usr/bin/docker-compose
Verify that the installation is successful, execute the following command to view the version information of docker-compose:
docker-compose --version
If the installation is successful, the version number of docker-compose will be displayed.
