Hi guys, I am facing a strange problem here which I do not know how to solve it, I want to dockerized my Django rest framework up with Postgres database, I have set up

the Dockerfile with the following code

FROM python:3

ENV PYTHONUNBUFFERED 1
RUN mkdir /code
WORKDIR /code
COPY . /code/
RUN pip install -r requirements.txt

and docker-compose-yml with following code

version: '3'

services:
    web:
        build: .
        command python e_project/manage.py runserver 0.0.0.0:8000
        volumes:
            - .:/code
        ports:
            - "8000:8000"
        depends_on:
            - db
    db:
        image: postgres

and my project root directory looks like this

$ ls
docker-compose-yml  
Dockerfile   
README.md  
requirements.txt
e_project 
$ cd  e_project 
    $ ls 
        __pycache__
        e_app  
        environ.py  
       e_project  
       manage.py

so when I run docker-compose up I am getting this error message in the terminal

    Can't find a suitable configuration file in this directory or any
    parent. Are you in the right directory?

    Supported filenames: docker-compose.yml, docker-compose.yaml

my docker-compose version is

$ docker-compose --version
docker-compose version 1.24.0, build 0aa59064

my docker version is

$ docker --version
Docker version 18.09.5, build e8ff056

my OS is Linux Ubuntu 18.04 LTS, 64 Bit

please help

it’s “docker-compose.yml” NOT “docker-compose-yml” (DOT yml not DASH yml)
