docker-compose: define mount for bind mount and managed mount

Question

I'm using docker-compose for defining my service. In docker, there are two concepts for docker volume. Firstly is about bind mount: mount on host storage.

docker run -d --name web-app -v $HOST/location:/container/location -p 80:80 httpd:latest

Secondly is about managed mount: abstract storage, not depend on host.

docker run -d --name web-app -v /container/location -p 80:80 httpd:latest

I want to map those concepts to docker-compose. It means how can I define bind mount and managed mount when using docker-compose.

Although I am answering very late. But maybe it helps other people in future. Below is the configuration for both types. https://docs.docker.com/compose/compose-file/compose-file-v3/#volumes

version: "3.2"
services:
  web:
    image: httpd:latest
    volumes:
      - type: bind
        source: $HOST/location
        target: /container/location
      - type: volume
        source: mydata
        target: /container/location
volumes:
  mydata:
