Dan Walsh has another blog post on the Red Hat Enable Sysadmin site this time he's writing about Exploring additional image stores in Podman. In the article Dan shows you how to store container images on shares, permitting the images to be accessed over the network.
Tom Sweeney has another blog post on the Red Hat Enable Sysadmin site this time he's writing about Building images using Podman and cron. In the article Tom talks about how necessity became the mother of invention and cron was put into use to build container images on a regular schedule.
The GitHub repository for the Podman project has been moved from github.com/containers/libpod to github.com/containers/podman. More details from Matt Heon in this blog post.
Matt Heon talks about the compatibility of the new Podman REST API and Docker's API is this blog post.
Podman v2.0.0 launched recently, and with it the REST API. We’ve seen a great deal of excitement with this new API because of what it will enable - enabling applications and automation to use Podman when the could previously only use Docker. As you may know, Podman’s REST API is split into two halves: one providing a Docker-compatible API, and a Libpod API providing support for Podman’s unique features such as pods. We would love for all projects to eventually grow to support for our native Libpod API, but this will take time (and may be impossible for older, no longer maintained projects). As such, we need to talk about the Compatibility API and how it can be used.
If you have been following the upstream development of Podman, you have undoubtedly seen us refer to “2.0” or “Podman 2”. Today, we have made the first release of Podman 2 upstream. The release notes highlight many of the newest features but we wanted to call out some specific things in this blog and expand on them.
Tom Sweeney has another blog post on the Red Hat Enable Sysadmin site this time he's writing about Pulling podman images from a container repository. Learn the different varieties of pull that the podman build command can use to speed up or further secure your environment in this post.
Dan Walsh along with Matt Heon have a blog post on the Red Hat Enable Sysadmin site, What happens behind the scenes of a rootless Podman container?. If you ever wanted to know what happens under the covers of a rootless container, this is the article for you!
We were just pointed to this post Building Container Images with Podman and Buildah by Puja Abbassi on the Giant Swarm site. In the article Puja goes over how Podman and Buildah handle daemonless and rootless building processes. A tardy link on this site, but worth a read!
Dan Walsh has another blog post on the Red Hat Enable Sysadmin site this time he's writing about 6 guides on making containers secure. It's a quick article with pointers to other blog posts showing how to secure your containers.
