It can be used to create and maintain +containers. The following tutorial will teach you how to set up Podman and perform some basic +commands with Podman. + +## Install Podman on Fedora +Many of the basic components to run Podman are readily available from the Fedora RPM repositories; the only +exception is Podman itself. In this section, we will help you install all the runtime and build dependencies +for Podman until an RPM becomes available. + +### Installing build and runtime dependencies +``` +# sudo dnf install -y git runc libassuan-devel golang golang-github-cpuguy83-go-md2man glibc-static \ + gpgme-devel glib2-devel device-mapper-devel libseccomp-devel \ + atomic-registries iptables skopeo-containers containernetworking-cni +``` +### Building and installing podman +``` +# git clone https://github.com/projectatomic/libpod/ ~/src/github.com/projectatomic/libpod +# cd !$ +# make +# sudo make install PREFIX=/usr +``` + + +## Familiarizing yourself with Podman + +### Running a sample container +This sample container will run a very basic httpd server that serves only its index +page. +``` +# sudo podman run -dt -e HTTPD_VAR_RUN=/var/run/httpd -e HTTPD_MAIN_CONF_D_PATH=/etc/httpd/conf.d \ + -e HTTPD_MAIN_CONF_PATH=/etc/httpd/conf \ + -e HTTPD_CONTAINER_SCRIPTS_PATH=/usr/share/container-scripts/httpd/ \ + registry.fedoraproject.org/f26/httpd /usr/bin/run-httpd +``` +Because the container is being run in detached mode, represented by the *-d* in the podman run command, podman +will print the container ID after it has run. + +### Listing running containers +The Podman *ps* command is used to list creating and running containers. +``` +# sudo podman ps +``` + +Note: If you add *-a* to the *ps* command, Podman will show all containers. + +### Executing a command in a running container +You can use the *exec* subcommand to execute a command in a running container. Eventually you will be able to +obtain the IP address of the container through inspection, but that is not enabled yet. Therefore, we will +install *iproute* in the container. Notice here that we use the switch **--latest** as a shortcut for the latest +created container. You could also use the container's ID listed during *podman ps* in the previous step or +when you ran the container. +``` +# sudo podman exec --latest -t dnf -y install iproute +# sudo podman exec --latest -t ip a +``` + +Note the IP address of the *ethernet* device. + +### Testing the httpd server +Now that we have the IP address of the container, we can test the network communication between the host +operating system and the container using curl. The following command should display the index page of our +containerized httpd server. +``` +# curl http://:8080 +``` + +### Viewing the container's logs +You can view the container's logs with Podman as well: +``` +# sudo podman logs --latest +``` + + +### Stopping the container +To stop the httpd container: +``` +# sudo podman stop --latest +``` +You can also check the status of one or more containers using the *ps* subcommand. In this case, we should +use the *-a* argument to list all containers. +``` +# sudo podman ps -a +``` + +### Removing the container +To remove the httpd container: +``` +# sudo podman rm --latest +``` +You can verify the deletion of the container by running *podman ps -a*. +## More information + +For more information on Podman and its subcommands, checkout the asciiart demos on the [README](https://github.com/projectatomic/libpod#commands) +page. diff --git a/docs/tutorials/tutorials.md b/docs/tutorials/tutorials.md new file mode 100644 index 000000000..6ada366c0 --- /dev/null +++ b/docs/tutorials/tutorials.md @@ -0,0 +1,9 @@ +![PODMAN logo](https://cdn.rawgit.com/kubernetes-incubator/cri-o/master/logo/crio-logo.svg) + +# Podman Tutorials + +## Links to a number of useful tutorials for the Podman utility. + +**[Introduction Tutorial](https://github.com/projectatomic/libpod/tree/master/docs/tutorials/podman_tutorial.md)** + +Learn how to setup Podman and perform some basic commands with the utility. -- cgit v1.2.3-54-g00ecf
