docker-compose.yml CouchDB latest: launch a CouchDB server with a volume attached to persist data across sessions

docker-compose-couchdb.yml

couchdb-latest:
  image: couchdb
  environment:
    - COUCHDB_USER=admin
    - COUCHDB_PASSWORD=couch
  ports:
    - "5984:5984"
  volumes:
    - couchdb-data-latest:/opt/couchdb/data
    - couchdb-conf-latest:/opt/couchdb/etc/local.d

# - `docker-compose up' to start CouchDB attached to the console, or `.. start' detached
# - Connect to the "Fauxton" admin: http://127.0.0.1:5984/_utils/
# - `docker-compose stop' to shutdown the service if it was started detached,
#   otherwise just press Ctrl+C to stop
# - `docker-compose down' to shutdown and drop the container (the data will continue
#   stored in the 'couchdb-data-latest' volume)
# - `docker volume rm couchdb-data-latest' to drop the data from the volume (first
#   execute `docker-compose down')
# - `~/bin/docker-volume-cp couchdb-data-latest couchdb-data-latest-backup-DAY' to backup the
#   DB to a new volume
