**podman generate kube** will generate Kubernetes Pod YAML (v1 specification) from a podman container or pod. Whether
the input is for a container or pod, Podman will always generate the specification as a Pod. The input may be in the form
of a pod or container name or ID.
-The **service** option can be used to generate a Service specification for the corresponding Pod ouput. In particular,
-if the object has portmap bindings, the service specification will include a NodePort declaration to expose the service. A
-random port is assigned by Podman in the specification.

Note that the generated Kubernetes YAML file can be used to re-run the deployment via podman-play-kube(1).

Each `*.json` file in the path configures a hook for Podman containers. For more details on the syntax of the JSON files and the semantics of hook injection, see `oci-hooks(5)`. Podman and libpod currently support both the 1.0.0 and 0.1.0 hook schemas, although the 0.1.0 schema is deprecated.

**WARNING**: the `precreate` hook lets you do powerful things, such as adding additional mounts to the runtime configuration. That power also makes it easy to break things. Before reporting libpod errors, try running your container with `precreate` hooks disabled to see if the problem is due to one of your hooks.
-**--log-level**
+**--log-level**=*level*
Log messages above specified level: debug, info, warn, error (default), fatal or panic
-**--namespace**
+**--namespace**=*namespace*
Set libpod namespace. Namespaces are used to separate groups of containers and pods in libpod's state.
When namespace is set, created containers and pods will join the given namespace, and only containers and pods in the given namespace will be visible to Podman.
-**--root**=**value**
+**--root=***value*
Storage root dir in which data, including images, is stored (default: "/var/lib/containers/storage" for UID 0, "$HOME/.local/share/containers/storage" for other users).
Default root dir is configured in /etc/containers/storage.conf.
-**--runroot**=**value**
+**--runroot**=*value*
Storage state directory where all state information is stored (default: "/var/run/containers/storage" for UID 0, "/var/run/user/$UID/run" for other users).
Default state dir is configured in /etc/containers/storage.conf.
-**--runtime**=**value**

Name of the OCI runtime as specified in libpod.conf or absolute path to the OCI compatible binary used to run containers.
-**--network-cmd-path**=**path**
+**--network-cmd-path**=*path*
Path to the command binary to use for setting up a network. It is currently only used for setting up a slirp4netns network. If "" is used then the binary is looked up using the $PATH environment variable.
-**--storage-driver**=**value**
+**--storage-driver**=*value*
Storage driver. The default storage driver for UID 0 is configured in /etc/containers/storage.conf (`$HOME/.config/containers/storage.conf` in rootless mode), and is *vfs* for non-root users when *fuse-overlayfs* is not available. The `STORAGE_DRIVER` environment variable overrides the default. The --storage-driver specified driver overrides all.
Overriding this option will cause the *storage-opt* settings in /etc/containers/storage.conf to be ignored. The user must
