What is the best way to install python-pip and docker-compose?
I have installed RHEL 7.4 and docker at the moment. I want to install docker-compose, but i could not find it in the repo. tried to install python-pip and did not find either.
I did some google search and looks like i need to register EPEL as repo, but my colleague said that is fedora repo and maybe not match what my RHEL 7.4 some stage.
Is centos version of docker-compose is better or i have to install from python source?
then using pip to install compose.
which way is better?
thanks in advance,
Kevin

Hi Kevin,
EPEL is made for Red Hat and this is the way how to add EPEL to your software sources :
(replace 'server' with desktop or workstation in case you are using one of these editions)
sudo subscription-manager repos --enable rhel-7-server-extras-rpmssudo subscription-manager repos --enable rhel-7-server-optional-rpms
sudo rpm -ivh https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-release-latest-7.noarch.rpmsudo yum update
It is generally recommended and safer to install software packages from the repositories.
So, all you'll need to do is just execute sudo yum install docker-compose. That's it ! :)

Christian
