Podman

This tutorial connects Sablier to Podman. You will select the Podman provider, run Sablier with access to the Podman socket, register a container so Sablier can manage it, and confirm Sablier knows when the container is ready. The Podman provider communicates with the podman.sock socket to start and stop containers on demand.

Select the Podman provider

Set the provider.name property to podman.

provider:
  name: podman

sablier start --provider.name=podman

SABLIER_PROVIDER_NAME=podman

Run Sablier with the socket mounted:

services:
  sablier:
    image: sablierapp/sablier:next
    restart: always
    command:
      - start
      - --provider.name=podman
    volumes:
      - '/run/podman/podman.sock:/run/podman/podman.sock'

Register a container

For Sablier to work, it needs to know which podman container to start and stop. Register a container by opting in with labels:

services:
  whoami:
    image: acouvreur/whoami:v1.10.2
    restart: unless-stopped
    labels:
      - sablier.enable=true
      - sablier.group=mygroup

Confirm when the container is ready

If the container defines a Healthcheck, then it will check for healthiness before stating the ready status.

If the containers do not define a Healthcheck, then as soon as the container has the status started it is considered ready.
