There is even a tool to convert Docker Run commands to a Docker Compose file :)

Such as this one hosted by Opnxng:

like just docker run by itself, it's not the full command, you need a compose file: https://docs.docker.com/engine/reference/commandline/compose/

Basically it's the same as docker run, but all the configuration is read from a file, not from stdin, more easily reproducible, you just have to store those files. The important is compose commands are very important for selfhosting, when your containers expected to run all the time.

RTFM: https://docs.docker.com/compose/

you need to create a docker-compose.yml file. I tend to put everything in one dir per container so I just have to move the dir around somewhere else if I want to move that container to a different machine. Here's an example I use for picard with examples of nfs mounts and local bind mounts with relative paths to the directory the docker-compose.yml is in. you basically just put this in a directory, create the local bind mount dirs in that same directory and adjust YOURPASS and the mounts/nfs shares and it will keep working everywhere you move the directory as long as it has docker and an available package in the architecture of the system.
