@podman Connector¶
The Podman connector allows you to use pyinfra to create new Podman images or modify running Podman containers.
Note
The Podman connector allows pyinfra to target Podman containers as inventory and is unrelated to the Docker Operations & Docker Facts.
You can pass either an image name or existing container ID:
Image - will create a new container from the image, execute operations against it, save into a new Podman image and remove the container
Existing container ID - will execute operations against the running container, leaving it running
# A Podman base image must be provided
pyinfra @podman/alpine:3.8 ...
# pyinfra can run on multiple Docker images in parallel
pyinfra @podman/alpine:3.8,@podman/ubuntu:bionic ...
# Execute against a running container
pyinfra @podman/2beb8c15a1b1 ...
The Podman connector is great for testing pyinfra operations locally, rather than connecting to a remote host over SSH each time. This gives you a fast, local-first devloop to iterate on when writing deploys, operations or facts.
Usage¶
pyinfra @podman/name ...
