How it works

Three steps, no setup

1

Paste your docker run command

Include ports, volumes, env vars, and any other flags.

2

Get the compose YAML

Flags are mapped to their docker-compose.yml equivalents.

3

Copy into your project

Save as docker-compose.yml and run with docker compose up.

Common questions

Frequently asked questions

Which flags are supported?
Common flags including ports, volumes, environment variables, restart policies, networks, and capabilities are recognized and translated.
Does it handle multiple containers?
Paste one docker run command at a time — for a multi-container setup, convert each command and combine the resulting services manually.
