| % 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.
 | |
| 
 | |
| By default, `podman compose` will emit a warning saying that it executes an external command. This warning can be disabled by setting `compose_warning_logs` to false in `containers.conf(5)` or setting the `PODMAN_COMPOSE_WARNING_LOGS` environment variable to false. See the man page for `containers.conf(5)` for more information.
 | |
| 
 | |
| ## OPTIONS
 | |
| 
 | |
| To see supported options of the installed compose provider, please run `podman compose --help`.
