| I try to keep secrets such as passwords and keys out in their own separate files so that I can `.gitignore` them and commit the rest of my configuration. With `docker-compose` we can do that with the `env_file` field. Here is an example with a postgres configuration:
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```yaml
 | |
| database:
 | |
|   image: postgres:13.4
 | |
|   container_name: database
 | |
|   hostname: database
 | |
|   env_file:
 | |
|     - Volumes/database/docker.env
 | |
|   volumes:
 | |
|     - Volumes/database/var/lib/postgresql/data:/var/lib/postgresql/data
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| Then in `Volumes/database/docker.env` I can have a file with the secrets as key-value pairs:
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```yaml
 | |
| POSTGRES_USER=user
 | |
| POSTGRES_PASSWORD=389ed93045c84cc0828c4310e6ef76ce
 | |
| POSTGRES_DB=database
 | |
| ```
