Add init containers to generate and play kube
Kubernetes has a concept of init containers that run and exit before
the regular containers in a pod are started. We added init containers
to podman pods as well. This patch adds support for generating init
containers in the kube yaml when a pod we are converting had init
containers. When playing a kube yaml, it detects an init container
and creates such a container in podman accordingly.
Note, only init containers created with the init type set to "always"
will be generated as the "once" option deletes the init container after
it has run and exited. Play kube will always creates init containers
with the "always" init container type.

Bi Potential name conflicts between volumes are avoided by using a standard naming scheme for each volume type. The *hostPath* volume types are named according to the path on the host machine, replacing forward slashes with hyphens less any leading and trailing forward slashes. The special case of the filesystem root, `/`, translates to the name `root`. Additionally, the name is suffixed with `-host` to avoid naming conflicts with *persistentVolumeClaim* volumes. Each *persistentVolumeClaim* volume type uses the name of its associated named volume suffixed with `-pvc`. +Note that if an init container is created with type `once` and the pod has been started, the init container will not show up in the generated kube YAML as `once` type init containers are deleted after they are run. If the pod has only been created and not started, it will be in the generated kube YAML. +Init containers created with type `always` will always be generated in the kube YAML as they are never deleted, even after running to completion. + Note that the generated Kubernetes YAML file can be used to re-run the deployment via podman-play-kube(1). ## OPTIONS |
