title: Command-line completion
---
Compose comes with [command completion](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Command-line_completion)
for the bash and zsh shell.
## Install command completion
### Bash
Make sure bash completion is installed.
#### Linux
1. On a current Linux OS (in a non-minimal installation), bash completion should be
available.
2. Place the completion script in `/etc/bash_completion.d/`.
```console
$ sudo curl \
-L https://raw.githubusercontent.com/docker/compose/{{site.compose_version}}/contrib/completion/bash/docker-compose \
-o /etc/bash_completion.d/docker-compose
```
3. Reload your terminal. You can close and then open a new terminal, or reload your setting with `source ~/.bashrc` command in your current terminal.
#### Mac
##### Install via Homebrew
1. Install with `brew install bash-completion`.
2. After the installation, Brew displays the installation path. Make sure to place the completion script in the path.
For example, place the completion script in `/usr/local/etc/bash_completion.d/`.
```console
$ sudo curl \
-L https://raw.githubusercontent.com/docker/compose/{{site.compose_version}}/contrib/completion/bash/docker-compose \
-o /usr/local/etc/bash_completion.d/docker-compose
```
3. Add the following to your `~/.bash_profile`:
```bash
if [ -f $(brew --prefix)/etc/bash_completion ]; then
. $(brew --prefix)/etc/bash_completion
fi
```
4. You can source your `~/.bash_profile` or launch a new terminal to utilize
completion.
##### Install via MacPorts
1. Run `sudo port install bash-completion` to install bash completion.
2. Add the following lines to `~/.bash_profile`:
```bash
if [ -f /opt/local/etc/profile.d/bash_completion.sh ]; then
. /opt/local/etc/profile.d/bash_completion.sh
fi
```
3. You can source your `~/.bash_profile` or launch a new terminal to utilize
completion.
### Zsh
Make sure you have [installed `oh-my-zsh`](https://ohmyz.sh/) on your computer.
#### With oh-my-zsh shell
Add `docker` and `docker-compose` to the plugins list in `~/.zshrc` to run
autocompletion within the oh-my-zsh shell. In the following example, `...`
represent other Zsh plugins you may have installed. After that, type `source ~/.zshrc` to bring the changes.
To test whether it is successful, type `docker ps` and then press the **Tab** key.
```shell
plugins=(... docker docker-compose)
```
#### Without oh-my-zsh shell
1. Place the completion script in your `/path/to/zsh/completion` (typically `~/.zsh/completion/`):
```console
$ mkdir -p ~/.zsh/completion
$ curl \
-L https://raw.githubusercontent.com/docker/compose/{{site.compose_version}}/contrib/completion/zsh/_docker-compose \
-o ~/.zsh/completion/_docker-compose
```
2. Include the directory in your `$fpath` by adding in `~/.zshrc`:
```shell
fpath=(~/.zsh/completion $fpath)
```
3. Make sure `compinit` is loaded or do it by adding in `~/.zshrc`:
```shell
autoload -Uz compinit && compinit -i
```
4. Then reload your shell:
```console
$ exec $SHELL -l
```
## Available completions
Depending on what you typed on the command line so far, it completes:
- available docker-compose commands
- options that are available for a particular command
- service names that make sense in a given context, such as services with running or stopped instances or services based on images vs. services based on Dockerfiles. For `docker-compose scale`, completed service names automatically have "=" appended.
- arguments for selected options. For example, `docker-compose kill -s` completes some signals like SIGHUP and SIGUSR1.
Enjoy working with Compose faster and with fewer typos!
