  • You cannot reference a part of a docker-compose file from another, but you can have an .env file alongside them where you can declare variables in the format NAME=VALUE, and reference that in the dc files with ${NAME}, assuming your dc files reside alongside each other (with different names) and the .env file itself. I have done this before.

    I cannot say if that will work for your use case, as I haven’t tried to use the same docker volume in different containers. I don’t even know if that is possible, given the possibility of conflicts if both containers tried to access the same files, something to test out, for sure.
