+% podman(1) podman-pull - Simple tool to pull an image from a registry

+## NAME
+podman-pull - Pull an image from a registry
+
+## SYNOPSIS
+**podman pull**
+**NAME[:TAG|@DIGEST]**
+[**--help**|**-h**]
+
+## DESCRIPTION
+Copies an image from a registry onto the local machine. **podman pull** pulls an
+image from Docker Hub if a registry is not specified in the command line argument.
+If an image tag is not specified, **podman pull** defaults to the image with the
+**latest** tag (if it exists) and pulls it. **podman pull** can also pull an image
+using its digest **podman pull [image]@[digest]**. **podman pull** can be used to pull
+images from archives and local storage using different transports.
+
+## imageID
+Image stored in local container/storage
+
+## SOURCE
+
+ The SOURCE is a location to get container images
+ The Image "SOURCE" uses a "transport":"details" format.
+
+ Multiple transports are supported:
+
+  **dir:**_path_
+  An existing local directory _path_ storing the manifest, layer tarballs and signatures as individual files. This is a non-standardized format, primarily useful for debugging or noninvasive container inspection.
+
+  **docker://**_docker-reference_
+  An image in a registry implementing the "Docker Registry HTTP API V2". By default, uses the authorization state in `$XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/containers/auth.json`, which is set using `(podman login)`. If the authorization state is not found there, `$HOME/.docker/config.json` is checked, which is set using `(docker login)`.
+
+  **docker-archive:**_path_[**:**_docker-reference_]
+  An image is stored in the `docker save` formatted file.  _docker-reference_ is only used when creating such a file, and it must not contain a digest.
+
+  **docker-daemon:**_docker-reference_
+  An image _docker-reference_ stored in the docker daemon internal storage.  _docker-reference_ must contain either a tag or a digest.  Alternatively, when reading images, the format can also be docker-daemon:algo:digest (an image ID).
+
+  **oci-archive:**_path_**:**_tag_
+  An image _tag_ in a directory compliant with "Open Container Image Layout Specification" at _path_.
+
+  **ostree:**_image_[**@**_/absolute/repo/path_]
+  An image in local OSTree repository.  _/absolute/repo/path_ defaults to _/ostree/repo_.

+**podman [GLOBAL OPTIONS]**
+
+**podman pull [GLOBAL OPTIONS]**
+
+**podman pull NAME[:TAG|@DIGEST]**
+
+## OPTIONS
+
+**--authfile**
+
+Path of the authentication file. Default is ${XDG_RUNTIME\_DIR}/containers/auth.json, which is set using `podman login`.
+If the authorization state is not found there, $HOME/.docker/config.json is checked, which is set using `docker login`.
+
+**--cert-dir**
+
+Pathname of a directory containing TLS certificates and keys
+
+**--creds**
+
+Credentials (USERNAME:PASSWORD) to use for authenticating to a registry
+
+**--quiet, -q**
+
+Suppress output information when pulling images
+
+**--signature-policy="PATHNAME"**
+
+Pathname of a signature policy file to use.  It is not recommended that this
+option be used, as the default behavior of using the system-wide default policy
+(frequently */etc/containers/policy.json*) is most often preferred
+
+**--tls-verify**
+
+Require HTTPS and verify certificates when contacting registries (default: true)
+
