pods VS Docker Compose

If you're using Linux (especially with Gnome), I can highly recommend Pods[1] as a desktop client for Podman. It's much less cluttered than Podman Desktop, but still supports most of its features.

Pods is a GTK4 frontend for Podman. I installed it from Arch AUR. But I think it also available as a Flatpak.

Pods GUI frontend for podman container.

Check out Symphony Pods that was featured in This week in Gnome 35

There is Symphony to manage Podman, but I imagine with some tinkering it can be made to work with Docker.

“Compose simplifies the control of your entire application stack, making it easy to manage services, networks, and volumes in a single, comprehensible YAML configuration file. Then, with a single command, you create and start all the services from your configuration file.” - Docker documentation

curl -fsSL https://get.docker.com -o get-docker.sh sudo sh get-docker.sh # Install docker compose sudo curl -L "https://github.com/docker/compose/releases/download/1.29.2/docker-compose-$(uname -s)-$(uname -m)" -o /usr/local/bin/docker-compose # Apply executable permissions to the binary sudo chmod +x /usr/local/bin/docker-compose # Run Project docker-compose up -d

Docker,

This foundation now opens the door to even more powerful concepts. You can explore more advanced concepts such as container networking, streamlining the management of complex applications with Docker Compose, and how to make your application data persistent using volumes.

In many projects that are containerized, especially in cases where development is also done locally with docker-compose, teams often have two Dockerfiles, 1 for Development, the other for Production. If you happen to have multiple environments like pre-prod, staging and so on, some teams could have different Dockerfiles for these environments.

sudo curl -L "https://github.com/docker/compose/releases/latest/download/docker-compose-$(uname -s)-$(uname -m)" -o /usr/local/bin/docker-compose

You can also use Docker Compose to deploy the cluster, without having to write all the previous commands.

[ec2-user]$ sudo yum update -y [ec2-user]$ sudo yum install -y docker [ec2-user]$ sudo service docker start [ec2-user]$ sudo curl -L https://github.com/docker/compose/releases/latest/download/docker-compose-$(uname -s)-$(uname -m) -o /usr/local/bin/docker-compose [ec2-user]$ sudo chmod +x /usr/local/bin/docker-compose [ec2-user]$ docker --version Docker version 20.10.23, build 7155243 [ec2-user]$ docker-compose --version Docker Compose version v2.18.1
