docker compose up

The output of each container is combined by the docker-compose up command. The command stops all containers upon execution. The containers are started and kept operating in the background by using docker-compose up -d.

"Docker-compose up" picks up the changes by halting and creating new containers for any services that already have containers and whose configuration or image has changed after the containers were created (preserving mounted volumes). Use the —no-recreate flag to stop Compose from detecting modifications.

Use the —force-recreate flag to compel Compose to stop and recreate all containers.
