Usage: build [options] [--build-arg key=val...] [SERVICE...]

Options:
    --force-rm              Always remove intermediate containers.
    --no-cache              Do not use cache when building the image.
    --pull                  Always attempt to pull a newer version of the image.
    --build-arg key=val     Set build-time variables for one service.

Services are built once and then tagged as project_service, e.g., composetest_db. If you change a service's Dockerfile or the contents of its build directory, run docker-compose build to rebuild it.
