compose: Docker-compose up exiting with code 0

expected behaviour

start container and expose container bash

actual behaviour

starts up the container then exits the container shutting down the container

software/ hardware specs

Virtual box 5.0.24 Docker 1.2.11 Docker-compose version 1.8.0 OSX Yosemite

issue description

I’m trying to run a container using docker-compose via docker-compose.yml files but the process seems to start up the container and exits with a code 0 when running the command docker-compose -f docker-compose.yml -f docker-compose-dev.yml up . I really need to run some bash commands and live the container up and running here is my docker-compose.yml

services:
  ngcracealong-rsync:
    # command: ["watch","-n3","ls -la"]
    command: 'bash'
    # entrypoint: '/bin/bash'
    # entrypoint: "lein with-profile dev do start-dev"
    container_name: 'docker-clojurescript'
    environment:
      - TERM=xterm
      - COMPOSE_HTTP_TIMEOUT=200
      - DEBUG=true
    expose:
      - "3000"
      - "9000"
    image: rand/docker-clojurescript
    ports:
      - "3000:3000"
      - "9000:9000"
    working_dir: '/data'
    read_only: false
    privileged: true
    # tty: true
    # command: "/bin/bash ls -la"
version: '2'

in a docker-compose-dev.yml

services:
  ngcracealong-rsync:
    volumes:
      - ngcracealong-rsync-sync:/data:rw
version: '2'
volumes:
  ngcracealong-rsync-sync:
    external: true

trying to execute a command like ‘/bin/bash ls -l’ leads to some erroneous errors like ‘commands not found’ I can only assume that the commands are running before volumes are setup

a --verbose output yields

Can someone help me figure ut what is going wrong here?
