Create named docker volume with docker-compose?

I tried this solution and for me works

version: '3.1'

services:
  alp:
    image: alpine
    volumes:
        - my-jenkins-volume:/your/local/path
    command: sleep 10000


volumes:
    my-jenkins-volume:
        external: false

external true if you provide your volume from an external source, not directly from the docker-compose spec
