Podman API v1.0 and libpod.conf Removal Notice

By Tom Sweeney GitHub​

On August 1, 2020, the Podman team posted a Podman API v1.0 Deprecation and Removal notice. As noted in that document, the Podman API v1.0 relied on the varlink library to handle the underlying client/server calls from the Podman client to the host where the Podman service was running. The support for the varlink library was greatly reduced in the spring of 2020. This led the Podman team to investigate the use of other client/server technologies and it was decided to develop a RESTful API for Podman using the native Go libraries.

The podman play kube command now supports deployments

By Matthew Heon GitHub​

In a recent blog post on the Red Hat Enable Sysadmin site, The podman play kube command now supports deployments, you can now learn all about the recent features added to Podman to interact with Kubernetes objects. The podman generate kube command allows you to export your existing containers into Kubernetes Pod YAML. This YAML can then be imported into OpenShift or a Kubernetes cluster. The podman play kube does the opposite, it allows you to take a Kubernetes YAML and run it in Podman. Learn all of the details and more in the blog post!

Tick-tock. Does your container know what time it is?

By Tom Sweeney GitHub​

Ashley Cui recently joined our team at Red Hat and just wrote her first ever blog post that is now on the Red Hat Enable Sysadmin site Tick-tock. Does your container know what time it is?. In this timely post, Ashley walks you through setting the timezone within a container using the --tz option. Just prior to this posting, I had answered a very similar question for someone. This is a really good and quick blog, and I'm sure the first of many for Ashley.

Podman Troubleshooting Guide

By Tom Sweeney GitHub​

As a kid, I was fascinated by space flight. If I couldn't be a fireman like my father, I wanted to be an astronaut. Of course I had to have a Major Matt Mason figure so I could fly him around the house and then land him softly in a jury-rigged parachute in my wading pool. Then of course the whole Apollo 13 drama had me riveted, and when the movie came out years later, I fell in love with this line in the movie, "Let's work the problem people. Let's not make things worse by guessing." by Ed Harris who played Gene Kranz the "vested" flight director.

Podman API v1.0 Deprecation and Removal Notice

By Tom Sweeney GitHub​

The Podman API v1.0 relied on the varlink library to handle the underlying client/server calls from the Podman client to the host where the Podman service was running. About one year ago, the Podman team was notified that the focus on the varlink library was being greatly reduced and there would be no further development and little support for it from the varlink library team. This led the Podman team to investigate the use of other client/server technologies and it was decided to develop a RESTful API for Podman using the native Go libraries.
