+#### Extracting the list of container registries with a Go template
+
+If shell completion is enabled, type `podman info --format={{.` and then press `[TAB]` twice.
+
+```
+$ podman info --format={{.
+{{.Host. {{.Plugins. {{.Registries}} {{.Store. {{.Version.
+```
+
+Press `R` `[TAB]` `[ENTER]` to print the registries information.
+
+```
+$ podman info -f {{.Registries}}
+map[search:[registry.fedoraproject.org registry.access.redhat.com docker.io quay.io]]
+$
+```
+
+The output still contains a map and an array. The map value can be extracted with
+
+```
+$ podman info -f '{{index .Registries "search"}}'
+[registry.fedoraproject.org registry.access.redhat.com docker.io quay.io]
+```
+
+The array can be printed as one entry per line
+
+```
+$ podman info -f '{{range index .Registries "search"}}{{.}}\n{{end}}'
+registry.fedoraproject.org
+registry.access.redhat.com
+docker.io
+quay.io
+
```
-$ podman info --format={{".Registries"}}
-map[registries:[docker.io quay.io registry.fedoraproject.org registry.access.redhat.com]]
+
+#### Extracting the list of container registries from JSON with jq
+
+The command-line JSON processor [__jq__](https://stedolan.github.io/jq/) can be used to extract the list
+of container registries.
+
```
+$ podman info -f json | jq '.registries["search"]'
+[
+ "registry.fedoraproject.org",
+ "registry.access.redhat.com",
+ "docker.io",
+ "quay.io"
+]
+```
+
+The array can be printed as one entry per line
+
+```
+$ podman info -f json | jq -r '.registries["search"] | .[]'
+registry.fedoraproject.org
+registry.access.redhat.com
+docker.io
+quay.io
+```
+
+Note, the Go template struct fields start with upper case. When running `podman info` or `podman info --format=json`, the same names start with lower case.
