% podman-login 1
## NAME
podman\-login - Login to a container registry
## SYNOPSIS
**podman login** [*options*] [*registry*]
## DESCRIPTION
**podman login** logs into a specified registry server with the correct username
and password. If the registry is not specified, the first registry under [registries.search]
from registries.conf will be used. **podman login** reads in the username and password from STDIN.
The username and password can also be set using the **username** and **password** flags.
The path of the authentication file can be specified by the user by setting the **authfile**
flag. The default path for reading and writing credentials is **${XDG\_RUNTIME\_DIR}/containers/auth.json**.
Podman will use existing credentials if the user does not pass in a username.
Podman will first search for the username and password in the **${XDG\_RUNTIME\_DIR}/containers/auth.json**, if they are not valid,
Podman will then use any existing credentials found in **$HOME/.docker/config.json**.
If those credentials are not present, Podman will create **${XDG\_RUNTIME\_DIR}/containers/auth.json** (if the file does not exist) and
will then store the username and password from STDIN as a base64 encoded string in it.
For more details about format and configurations of the auth.json file, please refer to containers-auth.json(5)
