How to get docker-compose to always re-create containers from fresh images?

Question

My docker images are built on a Jenkins CI server and are pushed to our private Docker Registry. My goal is to provision environments with docker-compose which always start

Answer 1

By current official documentation there is a short cut that stops and removes containers, networks, volumes, and images created by up, if they are already stopped or partially removed and so on, then it will do the trick too:

docker-compose down

Then if you have new changes on your images or Dockerfiles use:

docker-compose build --no-cache

Finally:docker-compose up

In one command: docker-compose down && docker-compose build --no-cache && docker-compose up
