+## NAME
+
+pypodman - Simple management tool for containers and images
+
+## SYNOPSIS
+
+**pypodman** [*global options*] _command_ [*options*]
+
+## DESCRIPTION
+
+pypodman is a simple client only tool to help with debugging issues when daemons
+such as CRI runtime and the kubelet are not responding or failing. pypodman uses
+a VarLink API to commicate with a podman service running on either the local or
+remote machine. pypodman uses ssh to create secure tunnels when communicating
+with a remote service.
+
+## GLOBAL OPTIONS
+
+**--help, -h**
+
+Print usage statement.
+
+**--version**
+
+Print program version number and exit.

+
+**--log-level**
+
+Log events above specified level: DEBUG, INFO, WARNING (default), ERROR, or CRITICAL.
+
+**--run-dir**
+
+Directory that will be namespaced with `pypodman` to hold local socket bindings. The default is ``$XDG_RUNTIME_DIR\`.
+
+**--user**
+
+Authenicating user on remote host. `pypodman` defaults to the logged in user.
+
+**--host**
+
+Name of remote host. There is no default, if not given `pypodman` attempts to connect to `--remote-socket-path` on local host.
+
+**--remote-socket-path**
+
+Path on remote host for podman service's `AF_UNIX` socket. The default is `/run/podman/io.projectatomic.podman`.

+
+## COMMANDS
+
+See [podman(1)](podman.1.md)
+
+## FILES
+
+**pypodman/pypodman.conf** (`Any element of XDG_CONFIG_DIRS` and/or `XDG_CONFIG_HOME` and/or **--config-home**)
+
+pypodman.conf is one or more configuration files for running the pypodman command. pypodman.conf is a TOML file with the stanza `[default]`, with a map of option: value.
+
+pypodman follows the XDG (freedesktop.org) conventions for resolving it's configuration. The list below are read from top to bottom with later items overwriting earlier. Any missing items are ignored.
+
+- `pypodman/pypodman.conf` from any path element in `XDG_CONFIG_DIRS` or `\etc\xdg`
+- `XDG_CONFIG_HOME` or $HOME/.config + `pypodman/pypodman.conf`
+- From `--config-home` command line option + `pypodman/pypodman.conf`
+- From environment variable, for example: RUN_DIR
+- From command line option, for example: --run-dir
+
+This should provide Operators the ability to setup basic configurations and allow users to customize them.
+
+**XDG_RUNTIME_DIR** (`XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/io.projectatomic.podman`)
+
+Directory where pypodman stores non-essential runtime files and other file objects (such as sockets, named pipes, ...).
