Docker Run → Compose

That container you started with a five-line docker run works fine, but the command lives in your shell history and nobody else can reproduce it. Paste the command here and get the equivalent docker-compose.yml: ports, volumes, environment variables, restart policy, network, user and memory limit, each mapped to the right key, ready to be committed next to the project it belongs to.

The converter understands quotes and backslash line continuations, accepts both -p 8080:80 and --publish=8080:80, and drops -d and --rm on purpose: in Compose, detaching is decided at docker compose up -d time. Named volumes get a volumes: section at the end of the file, networks other than bridge, host or none get a networks: section, and the YAML comes out without the version: line, which Compose v2 treats as obsolete.

Review before you use it: flags outside the supported list, such as --cap-add, --device or --gpus, are silently ignored, so if your command depends on them, add them to the YAML by hand. Running docker compose config validates the result. The conversion runs entirely in your browser, which matters here: docker run commands often carry database passwords in -e flags, and none of that is sent to any server.
