By default, Compose bases the project name on basename of the directory compose commands are run from. The project name can be overridden either by passing a -p / --project-name
option for each command or setting the COMPOSE_PROJECT_NAME
environment variable.
Can I run docker-compose with an empty project-name? I declare the volume with the name: myvolume and I would like to have the name myvolume
after starting the container and not e.g. user_myvolume
. Is it possible?

For what it's worth, if you want to remove the project name because it appears in your terminal, you can use --no-log-prefix
, as explained in this answer.

It's not possible to have an empty project name as it's used internally by docker as part of the key for container.
It's discussed in more detail here: Proposal: support for empty project names.
