mongodbHow to use Docker Compose with MongoDB?

Docker Compose is a tool for defining and running multi-container Docker applications. It can be used to easily set up and run a MongoDB instance in a Docker container.

To use Docker Compose with MongoDB, create a docker-compose.yml file with the following content:

version: '3'
services:
  mongodb:
    image: mongo
    ports:
      - 27017:27017

Then, run docker-compose up to start the MongoDB instance.

The code above:

• version: '3': specifies the version of the Docker Compose file format
• services: defines the services that will be run in the Docker Compose application
• mongodb: the name of the service
• image: the Docker image to use for the service
• ports: the ports to expose from the container

For more information, see the Docker Compose documentation.
