% podman-compose 1

## NAME
|
|
podman\-compose - Run Compose workloads via an external compose provider
|
|
|
|
## SYNOPSIS
|
|
**podman compose** [*options*] [*command* [*arg* ...]]
|
|
|
|
## DESCRIPTION
|
|
**podman compose** is a thin wrapper around an external compose provider such as docker-compose or podman-compose. This means that `podman compose` is executing another tool that implements the compose functionality but sets up the environment in a way to let the compose provider communicate transparently with the local Podman socket. The specified options as well the command and argument are passed directly to the compose provider.
|
|
|
|
The default compose providers are `docker-compose` and `podman-compose`. If installed, `docker-compose` takes precedence since it is the original implementation of the Compose specification and is widely used on the supported platforms (i.e., Linux, Mac OS, Windows).
|
|
|
|
If you want to change the default behavior or have a custom installation path for your provider of choice, please change the `compose_provider` field in `containers.conf(5)`. You may also set the `PODMAN_COMPOSE_PROVIDER` environment variable.
|
|
|
|
## OPTIONS
|
|
|
|
To see supported options of the installed compose provider, please run `podman compose --help`.
