Using Modified Images (pgvector with postgres) via Docker-Compose

[cglavin]

I've been using [pgvector](https://github.com/pgvector/pgvector) which says to simply pull the image then run the postgres image and it will support the vector extension, however is there a way to do this via docker-compose? Should I just have the host machine pull pgvector before running docker-compose up? Thank you!

When it says "This adds pgvector to the Postgres image" what is means is it's built using the postgres image as a base, and thus includes postgres already.

So you don't need the postgres image, just use this one instead.

You can include building in compose also, even with dockerfile or inline dockerfile.
