Try SpotterPodman is an open-source, daemon-less container engine designed for developing, managing, and running OCI (Open Container Initiative) containers and container images on a Linux system. It provides a Docker-compatible command line interface (CLI) but does not require a running daemon, enhancing security and enabling users to run containers as non-root users. Podman facilitates container management tasks such as building, pulling, running, and pushing containers in standalone and pod configurations, supporting container workflows without a central daemon.
The containers.podman Ansible collection facilitates the automation of Podman container management tasks such as creating, starting, stopping, and removing containers and managing images. It integrates Podman's capabilities with Ansible's automation framework, allowing users to define container-related operations in Ansible Playbooks. This collection makes deploying and managing containerized applications in a Podman environment easier using Ansible's orchestration tools.
