The command line interface of the remote client is exactly the -same as the regular Podman commands with the exception of some flags being removed as they -do not apply to the remote-client. - -## What you need -To use the remote-client, you will need a binary for your client and a Podman "backend"; hereafter -referred to as the Podman node. In this context, a Podman node is a Linux system with Podman -installed on it and the varlink service activated. You will also need to be able to ssh into this -system as a user with privileges to the varlink socket (more on this later). - -## Building the remote client -At this time, the Podman remote-client is not being packaged for any distribution. It must be built from -source. To set up your build environment, see [Installation notes](https://github.com/containers/podman/blob/master/install.md) and follow the -section [Building from scratch](https://github.com/containers/podman/blob/master/install.md#building-from-scratch). Once you can successfully -build the regular Podman binary, you can now build the remote-client. -``` -$ make podman-remote -``` -Like building the regular Podman, the resulting binary will be in the *bin* directory. This is the binary -you will run on the remote node later in the instructions. - -## Setting up the remote and Podman nodes - -To use the remote-client, you must perform some setup on both the remote and Podman nodes. In this case, -the remote node refers to where the remote-client is being run; and the Podman node refers to where -Podman and its storage reside. - - -### Podman node setup - -Varlink bridge support is provided by the varlink cli command and installed using: -``` -$ sudo dnf install varlink-cli -``` - -The Podman node must have Podman (not the remote-client) installed as normal. If your system uses systemd, -then simply start the Podman varlink socket. -``` -$ sudo systemctl start io.podman.socket -``` - -If your system cannot use systemd, then you can manually establish the varlink socket with the Podman -command: -``` -$ sudo podman --log-level debug varlink --timeout 0 unix://run/podman/io.podman -``` - -### Required permissions -For now, the remote-client requires that you be able to run a privileged Podman and have privileged ssh -access to the remote system. This limitation is being worked on. - -### Remote node setup - -#### Initiate an ssh session to the Podman node -To use the remote client, an ssh connection to the Podman server must be established. - -Using the varlink bridge, an ssh tunnel must be initiated to connect to the server.
