How to open/run YML compose file?


If you are asking how to open YAML files, then you can use some common editors like NotePad++ in windows or vim in linux. If your question is about running the compose yaml file, then run this command from the directory where compose file is residing:

docker-compose -f {compose file name} up

You can avoid -f if your filename is docker-compose.yml


To manage .yml files you have to install and use Docker Compose.

Installation instructions can be found here: https://docs.docker.com/compose/install/

After the installation, go to your docker-compose.yml directory and then execute docker-compose up to create and start services in your docker-compose.yml file.
