* Docs: consistency between man / --helpEd Santiago2020-06-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | New functionality in hack/man-page-checker: start cross- referencing the man page 'Synopsis' line against the output of 'podman foo --help'. This is part 1, flag/option consistency. Part 2 (arg consistency) is too big and will have to wait for later. flag/option consistency means: if 'podman foo --help' includes the string '[flags]' in the Usage message, make sure the man page includes '[*options*]' in its Synopsis line, and vice-versa. This found several inconsistencies, which I've fixed. While doing this I realized that Cobra automatically includes a 'Flags:' subsection in its --help output for all subcommands that have defined flags. This is great - it lets us cross-check against the usage synopsis, and make sure that '[flags]' is present or absent as needed, without fear of human screwups. If a flag-less subcommand ever gets extended with flags, but the developer forgets to add '[flags]' and remove DisableFlagsInUseLine, we now have a test that will catch that. (This, too, caught two instances which I fixed). I don't actually know if the new man-page-checker functionality will work in CI: I vaguely recall that it might run before 'make podman' does; and also vaguely recall that some steps were taken to remedy that.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | New hack/xref-helpmsgs-manpages script, added to CI 'gate' task, runs 'podman [subcommand] --help' and cross-references against man pages in docs/source/markdown/podman*.1.md See #5453 and #5460 for instances of the problems the script has found. The careful reader will find an alarming number of special-case bypasses. These are a tradeoff I am making: to get perfect coverage with no handwaving, it would be necessary to make drastic changes to some man pages, and I believe those would be counterproductive.

* | auto updatesValentin Rothberg2020-03-17
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add support to auto-update containers running in systemd units as generated with `podman generate systemd --new`. `podman auto-update` looks up containers with a specified "io.containers.autoupdate" label (i.e., the auto-update policy). If the label is present and set to "image", Podman reaches out to the corresponding registry to check if the image has been updated. We consider an image to be updated if the digest in the local storage is different than the one of the remote image. If an image must be updated, Podman pulls it down and restarts the container. Note that the restarting sequence relies on systemd. At container-creation time, Podman looks up the "PODMAN_SYSTEMD_UNIT" environment variables and stores it verbatim in the container's label. This variable is now set by all systemd units generated by `podman-generate-systemd` and is set to `%n` (i.e., the name of systemd unit starting the container). This data is then being used in the auto-update sequence to instruct systemd (via DBUS) to restart the unit and hence to restart the container. Note that this implementation of auto-updates relies on systemd and requires a fully-qualified image reference to be used to create the container. This enforcement is necessary to know which image to actually check and pull. If we used an image ID, we would not know which image to check/pull anymore.

* man pages - consistency fixesEd Santiago2019-03-20
podman-generate and -play had the wrong NAMEs. podman-restart and -volume-prune the wrong SYNOPSIS. All the rest are varying degrees of minor: - missing a space between the NAME and description - multi-line SYNOPSIS that could be collapsed into one - use of UPPER CASE in synopsis instead of *asterisks* - improper use of **double asterisks** for options - varlink and version were transposed in podman-1 - fixed inconsistencies between the description in the man page and that in the parent manpage. These are too numerous for me to fix all. Added: script that could be used in CI to prevent future such inconsistencies. It cannot be enabled yet because there are still 35+ inconsistencies in need of cleaning. This will be difficult to review on github. I suggest pulling the PR and running 'git log -1 -p | cdif | less' 'cdif' is a handy tool for colorizing individual diffs between lines: http://kaz-utashiro.github.io/cdif/ There are other such tools; use your favorite. Comparing without visual highlights may be painful. I also encourage you to run hack/man-page-checker and suggest more fixes for the problems it's finding.
