Coupled Installation and Removal
Note: on Mac Docker now installs Docker Compose. So the strategy for removal has changed a bit. If you uninstall Docker, and you want to uninstall both, then you also uninstall Docker Compose.
Individual Removal if Installed Using curl
It is commonly installed to /usr/local/bin/docker-compose on macs. However, you can run which docker-compose to find the exact location.
Run the following command (*nix systems) to remove:
rm $(which docker-compose)
If you get a permission denied error then you will need to prepend sudo:
sudo rm $(which docker-compose)
To verify that it was successful, run the following command which should return nothing:
which docker-compose
It should say that the command wasn’t found.
Individual Removal if Installed Using PIP
If you’ve installed Docker Compose using PIP then you can run:
pip uninstall docker-compose
You may have to use sudo if you get a permission denied error:
sudo pip uninstall docker-compose
