The original version of Docker Compose was a separate utility, which provided a docker-compose command-line tool.
Docker Compose v2 is a Docker plugin, which is meant to be run as a subcommand of Docker (i.e.,
docker compose ...
). In most cases, it provides adocker-compose
tool for backwards compatibility that forwards to the plugin, but in some cases that tool is either missing or not properly added to the path.We will therefore try to run
docker-compose
, and if it fails we will try to rundocker compose
and see if that works before exiting with an error. Ifdocker compose
is supported, we will use that for subsequent commands.
