podman-farm-build(1)

NAME
podman-farm-build - Build images on farm nodes, then bundle them into a manifest list

SYNOPSIS
podman farm build [options] [context]

DESCRIPTION
podman farm build Builds an image on all nodes in a farm and bundles them up into a manifest list. It executes the podman build command on the nodes in the farm with the given Containerfile. Once the images are built on all the farm nodes, the images will be pushed to the registry given via the --tag flag. Once all the images have been pushed, a manifest list will be created locally and pushed to the registry as well.

The manifest list will contain an image per native architecture type that is present in the farm.

The primary function of this command is to create multi-architecture builds that will be faster than doing it via emulation using podman build --arch --platform.

If no farm is specified, the build will be sent out to all the nodes that podman system connection knows of.

Note: Since the images built are directly pushed to a registry, the user must pass in a full image name using the --tag option in the format registry/repository/imageName[:tag]`.

OPTIONS

  --add-host=hostname[;hostname[;...]]:ip
Add a custom host-to-IP mapping to the container's /etc/hosts file.

The option takes one or multiple semicolon-separated hostnames to be mapped to a single IPv4 or IPv6 address, separated by a colon. It can also be used to overwrite the IP addresses of hostnames Podman adds to /etc/hosts by default (also see the --name and --hostname options). This option can be specified multiple times to add additional mappings to /etc/hosts. It conflicts with the --no-hosts option and conflicts with no_hosts=true in containers.conf.

Instead of an IP address, the special flag host-gateway can be given. This resolves to an IP address the container can use to connect to the host. The IP address chosen depends on your network setup, thus there's no guarantee that Podman can determine the host-gateway address automatically, which will then cause Podman to fail with an error message. You can overwrite this IP address using the host_containers_internal_ip option in containers.conf.

The host-gateway address is also used by Podman to automatically add the host.containers.internal and host.docker.internal hostnames to /etc/hosts. You can prevent that by either giving the --no-hosts option, or by setting host_containers_internal_ip="none" in containers.conf. If no host-gateway address was configured manually and Podman fails to determine the IP address automatically, Podman will silently skip adding these internal hostnames to /etc/hosts. If Podman is running in a virtual machine using podman machine (this includes Mac and Windows hosts), Podman will silently skip adding the internal hostnames to /etc/hosts, unless an IP address was configured manually; the internal hostnames are resolved by the gvproxy DNS resolver instead.

Podman will use the /etc/hosts file of the host as a basis by default, i.e. any hostname present in this file will also be present in the /etc/hosts file of the container. A different base file can be configured using the base_hosts_file config in containers.conf.

  --annotation=annotation=value
Add an image annotation (e.g. annotation=value) to the image metadata. Can be used multiple times.

Note: this information is not present in Docker image formats, so it is discarded when writing images in Docker formats.

  --authfile=path
Path of the authentication file. Default is ${XDG_RUNTIME_DIR}/containers/auth.json on Linux, and $HOME/.config/containers/auth.json on Windows/macOS. The file is created by podman login. If the authorization state is not found there, $HOME/.docker/config.json is checked, which is set using docker login.

Note: There is also the option to override the default path of the authentication file by setting the REGISTRY_AUTH_FILE environment variable. This can be done with export REGISTRY_AUTH_FILE=path.

  --build-arg=arg=value
Specifies a build argument and its value, which is interpolated in instructions read from the Containerfiles in the same way that environment variables are, but which are not added to environment variable list in the resulting image's configuration.

  --build-arg-file=path
Specifies a file containing lines of build arguments of the form arg=value. The suggested file name is argfile.conf.

Comment lines beginning with # are ignored, along with blank lines. All others must be of the arg=value format passed to --build-arg.

If several arguments are provided via the --build-arg-file and --build-arg options, the build arguments are merged across all of the provided files and command line arguments.

Any file provided in a --build-arg-file option is read before the arguments supplied via the --build-arg option.

When a given argument name is specified several times, the last instance is the one that is passed to the resulting builds. This means --build-arg values always override those in a --build-arg-file.

  --build-context=name=value
Specify an additional build context using its short name and its location. Additional build contexts can be referenced in the same manner as we access different stages in COPY instruction.

Valid values are:

•   Local directory – e.g. --build-context project2=../path/to/project2/src

•   HTTP URL to a tarball – e.g. --build-context src=https://example.org/releases/src.tar

•   Container image – specified with a container-image:// prefix, e.g. --build-context alpine=container-image://alpine:3.15, (also accepts docker://, docker-image://)

On the Containerfile side, reference the build context on all commands that accept the “from” parameter. Here’s how that might look:
    FROM [name]
    COPY --from=[name] ...
    RUN --mount=from=[name] …

The value of [name] is matched with the following priority order:

•   Named build context defined with --build-context [name]=..

•   Stage defined with AS [name] inside Containerfile

•   Image [name], either local or in a remote registry

  --cache-from=image
Repository to utilize as a potential cache source. When specified, Buildah tries to look for cache images in the specified repository and attempts to pull cache images instead of actually executing the build steps locally. Buildah only attempts to pull previously cached images if they are considered as valid cache hits.

Use the --cache-to option to populate a remote repository with cache content.

Example
    # populate a cache and also consult it
    buildah build -t test --layers --cache-to registry/myrepo/cache --cache-from registry/myrepo/cache .

Note: --cache-from option is ignored unless --layers is specified.

  --cache-to=image
Set this flag to specify a remote repository that is used to store cache images. Buildah attempts to push newly built cache image to the remote repository.

Note: Use the --cache-from option in order to use cache content in a remote repository.

Example
    # populate a cache and also consult it
    buildah build -t test --layers --cache-to registry/myrepo/cache --cache-from registry/myrepo/cache .

Note: --cache-to option is ignored unless --layers is specified.

  --cache-ttl
Limit the use of cached images to only consider images with created timestamps less than duration ago. For example if --cache-ttl=1h is specified, Buildah considers intermediate cache images which are created under the duration of one hour, and intermediate cache images outside this duration is ignored.

Note: Setting --cache-ttl=0 manually is equivalent to using --no-cache in the implementation since this means that the user does not want to use cache at all.

  --cap-add=CAP_xxx
When executing RUN instructions, run the command specified in the instruction with the specified capability added to its capability set. Certain capabilities are granted by default; this option can be used to add more.

  --cap-drop=CAP_xxx
When executing RUN instructions, run the command specified in the instruction with the specified capability removed from its capability set. The CAP_CHOWN, CAP_DAC_OVERRIDE, CAP_FOWNER, CAP_FSETID, CAP_KILL, CAP_NET_BIND_SERVICE, CAP_SETFCAP, CAP_SETGID, CAP_SETPCAP, and CAP_SETUID capabilities are granted by default; this option can be used to remove them.

If a capability is specified to both the --cap-add and --cap-drop options, it is dropped, regardless of the order in which the options were given.

  --cert-dir=path
Use certificates at path (*.crt, *.cert, *.key) to connect to the registry. (Default: /etc/containers/certs.d) For details, see containers-certs.d(5). (This option is not available with the remote Podman client, including Mac and Windows (excluding WSL2) machines)

  --cgroup-parent=path
Path to cgroups under which the cgroup for the container is created. If the path is not absolute, the path is considered to be relative to the cgroups path of the init process. Cgroups are created if they do not already exist.

  --cgroupns=how
Sets the configuration for cgroup namespaces when handling RUN instructions. The configured value can be "" (the empty string) or "private" to indicate that a new cgroup namespace is created, or it can be "host" to indicate that the cgroup namespace in which buildah itself is being run is reused.

  --cleanup
Remove built images from farm nodes on success (Default: false).

  --compat-volumes
Handle directories marked using the VOLUME instruction (both in this build, and those inherited from base images) such that their contents can only be modified by ADD and COPY instructions. Any changes made in those locations by RUN instructions will be reverted. Before the introduction of this option, this behavior was the default, but it is now disabled by default.

  --compression-format=gzip | zstd | zstd:chunked
Specifies the compression format to use. Supported values are: gzip, zstd and zstd:chunked. The default is gzip unless overridden in the containers.conf file. zstd:chunked is incompatible with encrypting images, and will be treated as zstd with a warning in that case.

  --compression-level=level
Specifies the compression level to use. The value is specific to the compression algorithm used, e.g. for zstd the accepted values are in the range 1-20 (inclusive) with a default of 3, while for gzip it is 1-9 (inclusive) and has a default of 5.

  --cpp-flag=flags
Set additional flags to pass to the C Preprocessor cpp(1). Containerfiles ending with a ".in" suffix is preprocessed via cpp(1). This option can be used to pass additional flags to cpp.Note: You can also set default CPPFLAGS by setting the BUILDAH_CPPFLAGS environment variable (e.g., export BUILDAH_CPPFLAGS="-DDEBUG").

  --cpu-period=limit
Set the CPU period for the Completely Fair Scheduler (CFS), which is a duration in microseconds. Once the container's CPU quota is used up, it will not be scheduled to run until the current period ends. Defaults to 100000 microseconds.

On some systems, changing the resource limits may not be allowed for non-root users. For more details, see https://github.com/containers/podman/blob/main/troubleshooting.md#26-running-containers-with-resource-limits-fails-with-a-permissions-error

This option is not supported on cgroups V1 rootless systems.

  --cpu-quota=limit
Limit the CPU Completely Fair Scheduler (CFS) quota.

Limit the container's CPU usage. By default, containers run with the full CPU resource. The limit is a number in microseconds. If a number is provided, the container is allowed to use that much CPU time until the CPU period ends (controllable via --cpu-period).

On some systems, changing the resource limits may not be allowed for non-root users. For more details, see https://github.com/containers/podman/blob/main/troubleshooting.md#26-running-containers-with-resource-limits-fails-with-a-permissions-error

This option is not supported on cgroups V1 rootless systems.

  --cpu-shares, -c=shares
CPU shares (relative weight).

By default, all containers get the same proportion of CPU cycles. This proportion can be modified by changing the container's CPU share weighting relative to the combined weight of all the running containers. Default weight is 1024.

The proportion only applies when CPU-intensive processes are running. When tasks in one container are idle, other containers can use the left-over CPU time. The actual amount of CPU time varies depending on the number of containers running on the system.

For example, consider three containers, one has a cpu-share of 1024 and two others have a cpu-share setting of 512. When processes in all three containers attempt to use 100% of CPU, the first container receives 50% of the total CPU time. If a fourth container is added with a cpu-share of 1024, the first container only gets 33% of the CPU. The remaining containers receive 16.5%, 16.5% and 33% of the CPU.

On a multi-core system, the shares of CPU time are distributed over all CPU cores. Even if a container is limited to less than 100% of CPU time, it can use 100% of each individual CPU core.

For example, consider a system with more than three cores. If the container C0 is started with --cpu-shares=512 running one process, and another container C1 with --cpu-shares=1024 running two processes, this can result in the following division of CPU shares:
PID | container | CPU | CPU share
100 | C0 | 0 | 100% of CPU0
101 | C1 | 1 | 100% of CPU1
102 | C1 | 2 | 100% of CPU2

On some systems, changing the resource limits may not be allowed for non-root users. For more details, see https://github.com/containers/podman/blob/main/troubleshooting.md#26-running-containers-with-resource-limits-fails-with-a-permissions-error

This option is not supported on cgroups V1 rootless systems.

  --cpuset-cpus=number
CPUs in which to allow execution. Can be specified as a comma-separated list (e.g. 0,1), as a range (e.g. 0-3), or any combination thereof (e.g. 0-3,7,11-15).

On some systems, changing the resource limits may not be allowed for non-root users. For more details, see https://github.com/containers/podman/blob/main/troubleshooting.md#26-running-containers-with-resource-limits-fails-with-a-permissions-error

This option is not supported on cgroups V1 rootless systems.

  --cpuset-mems=nodes
Memory nodes (MEMs) in which to allow execution (0-3, 0,1). Only effective on NUMA systems.

If there are four memory nodes on the system (0-3), use --cpuset-mems=0,1 then processes in the container only uses memory from the first two memory nodes.

On some systems, changing the resource limits may not be allowed for non-root users. For more details, see https://github.com/containers/podman/blob/main/troubleshooting.md#26-running-containers-with-resource-limits-fails-with-a-permissions-error

This option is not supported on cgroups V1 rootless systems.

  --created-annotation
Add an image annotation (see also --annotation) to the image metadata setting "org.opencontainers.image.created" to the current time, or to the datestamp specified to the --source-date-epoch or --timestamp flag, if either was used. If false, no such annotation will be present in the written image.

Note: this information is not present in Docker image formats, so it is discarded when writing images in Docker formats.

  --creds=[username[:password]]
The [username[:password]] to use to authenticate with the registry, if required. If one or both values are not supplied, a command line prompt appears and the value can be entered. The password is entered without echo.

Note that the specified credentials are only used to authenticate against target registries. They are not used for mirrors or when the registry gets rewritten (see containers-registries.conf(5)); to authenticate against those consider using a containers-auth.json(5) file.

  --decryption-key=key[:passphrase]
The [key[:passphrase]] to be used for decryption of images. Key can point to keys and/or certificates. Decryption is tried with all keys. If the key is protected by a passphrase, it is required to be passed in the argument and omitted otherwise.

  --device=host-device[:container-device][:permissions]
Add a host device to the container. The format of this is HOST-DEVICE[:CONTAINER-DEVICE][:PERMISSIONS], where HOST-DEVICE is the path of the device node on the host, CONTAINER-DEVICE is the path of the device node in the container, and PERMISSIONS is a list of permissions combining 'r' for read, 'w' for write, and 'm' for mknod(2).

Example: --device=/dev/sdc:/dev/xvdc:rwm.

Note: if host-device is a symbolic link then it is resolved first. The container only stores the major and minor numbers of the host device.

Podman may load kernel modules required for using the specified device. The devices that Podman loads modules for when necessary are: /dev/fuse.

In rootless mode, the new device is bind mounted in the container from the host rather than Podman creating it within the container space. Because the bind mount retains its SELinux label on SELinux systems, the container can get permission denied when accessing the mounted device. Modify SELinux settings to allow containers to use all device labels via the following command:

$ sudo setsebool -P container_use_devices=true

Note: if the user only has access rights via a group, accessing the device from inside a rootless container fails. The crun(1) runtime offers a workaround for this by adding the option --annotation run.oci.keep_original_groups=1.

  --disable-compression, -D
Don't compress filesystem layers when building the image unless it is required by the location where the image is being written. This is the default setting, because image layers are compressed automatically when they are pushed to registries, and images being written to local storage only need to be decompressed again to be stored. Compression can be forced in all cases by specifying --disable-compression=false.

  --dns=ipaddr
Set custom DNS servers.

This option can be used to override the DNS configuration passed to the container. Typically this is necessary when the host DNS configuration is invalid for the container (e.g., 127.0.0.1). When this is the case, the --dns flag is necessary for every run.

The special value none can be specified to disable creation of /etc/resolv.conf in the container by Podman. The /etc/resolv.conf file in the image is then used without changes.

Note that ipaddr may be added directly to the container's /etc/resolv.conf. This is not guaranteed though. For example, passing a custom network whose dns_enabled is set to true to --network will result in /etc/resolv.conf only referring to the aardvark-dns server. aardvark-dns then forwards to the supplied ipaddr for all non-container name queries.

This option cannot be combined with --network that is set to none.

Note: this option takes effect only during RUN instructions in the build. It does not affect /etc/resolv.conf in the final image.

  --dns-option=option
Set custom DNS options to be used during the build.

  --dns-search=domain
Set custom DNS search domains to be used during the build.

  --env=env[=value]
Add a value (e.g. env=value) to the built image. Can be used multiple times. If neither = nor a value are specified, but env is set in the current environment, the value from the current environment is added to the image.

To remove an environment variable from the built image, use the --unsetenv option.

  --farm
This option specifies the name of the farm to be used in the build process.

This option specifies the name of the farm to be used in the build process.

  --file, -f=Containerfile
Specifies a Containerfile which contains instructions for building the image, either a local file or an http or https URL. If more than one Containerfile is specified, FROM instructions are only accepted from the last specified file.

If a build context is not specified, and at least one Containerfile is a local file, the directory in which it resides is used as the build context.

Specifying the option -f - causes the Containerfile contents to be read from stdin.

  --force-compression
If set, push uses the specified compression algorithm even if the destination contains a differently-compressed variant already. Defaults to true if --compression-format is explicitly specified on the command-line, false otherwise.

  --force-rm
Always remove intermediate containers after a build, even if the build fails (default true).

  --format
Control the format for the built image's manifest and configuration data. Recognized formats include oci (OCI image-spec v1.0, the default) and docker (version 2, using schema format 2 for the manifest).

Note: You can also override the default format by setting the BUILDAH_FORMAT environment variable. export BUILDAH_FORMAT=docker

  --from
Overrides the first FROM instruction within the Containerfile. If there are multiple FROM instructions in a Containerfile, only the first is changed.

With the remote podman client, not all container transports work as expected. For example, oci-archive:/x.tar references /x.tar on the remote machine instead of on the client. When using podman remote clients it is best to restrict use to containers-storage, and docker:// transports.

  --group-add=group | keep-groups
Assign additional groups to the primary user running within the container process.

•   keep-groups is a special flag that tells Podman to keep the supplementary group access.

Allows container to use the user's supplementary group access. If file systems or devices are only accessible by the rootless user's group, this flag tells the OCI runtime to pass the group access into the container. Currently only available with the crun OCI runtime. Note: keep-groups is exclusive, other groups cannot be specified with this flag. (Not available for remote commands, including Mac and Windows (excluding WSL2) machines)

  --help, -h
Print usage statement

  --hooks-dir=path
Each *.json file in the path configures a hook for buildah build containers. For more details on the syntax of the JSON files and the semantics of hook injection. Buildah currently support both the 1.0.0 and 0.1.0 hook schemas, although the 0.1.0 schema is deprecated.

This option may be set multiple times; paths from later options have higher precedence.

For the annotation conditions, buildah uses any annotations set in the generated OCI configuration.

For the bind-mount conditions, only mounts explicitly requested by the caller via --volume are considered. Bind mounts that buildah inserts by default (e.g. /dev/shm) are not considered.

If --hooks-dir is unset for root callers, Buildah currently defaults to /usr/share/containers/oci/hooks.d and /etc/containers/oci/hooks.d in order of increasing precedence. Using these defaults is deprecated. Migrate to explicitly setting --hooks-dir.

  --http-proxy
By default proxy environment variables are passed into the container if set for the Podman process. This can be disabled by setting the value to false. The environment variables passed in include http_proxy, https_proxy, ftp_proxy, no_proxy, and also the upper case versions of those. This option is only needed when the host system must use a proxy but the container does not use any proxy. Proxy environment variables specified for the container in any other way overrides the values that have been passed through from the host. (Other ways to specify the proxy for the container include passing the values with the --env flag, or hard coding the proxy environment at container build time.) When used with the remote client it uses the proxy environment variables that are set on the server process.

Defaults to true.

  --identity-label
Adds default identity label io.buildah.version if set. (default true).

  --ignorefile
Path to an alternative .containerignore file.

  --iidfile=ImageIDfile
Write the built image's ID to the file. When --platform is specified more than once, attempting to use this option triggers an error.

  --iidfile-raw=ImageIDfile
Write the built image's ID to the file without the algorithm prefix (e.g., sha256:). When --platform is specified more than once, attempting to use this option triggers an error.

  --inherit-annotations=bool-value
Inherit the annotations from the base image or base stages. (default true). Use cases which set this flag to false may need to do the same for the --created-annotation flag.

  --inherit-labels
Inherit the labels from the base image or base stages. (default true).

  --ipc=how
Sets the configuration for IPC namespaces when handling RUN instructions. The configured value can be "" (the empty string) or "container" to indicate that a new IPC namespace is created, or it can be "host" to indicate that the IPC namespace in which podman itself is being run is reused, or it can be the path to an IPC namespace which is already in use by another process.

  --isolation=type
Controls what type of isolation is used for running processes as part of RUN instructions. Recognized types include oci (OCI-compatible runtime, the default), rootless (OCI-compatible runtime invoked using a modified configuration and its --rootless option enabled, with --no-new-keyring --no-pivot added to its create invocation, with network and UTS namespaces disabled, and IPC, PID, and user namespaces enabled; the default for unprivileged users), and chroot (an internal wrapper that leans more toward chroot(1) than container technology).

Note: You can also override the default isolation type by setting the BUILDAH_ISOLATION environment variable. export BUILDAH_ISOLATION=oci

  --jobs=number
Run up to N concurrent stages in parallel. If the number of jobs is greater than 1, stdin is read from /dev/null. If 0 is specified, then there is no limit in the number of jobs that run in parallel.

  --label=label
Add an image label (e.g. label=value) to the image metadata. Can be used multiple times.

Users can set a special LABEL io.containers.capabilities=CAP1,CAP2,CAP3 in a Containerfile that specifies the list of Linux capabilities required for the container to run properly. This label specified in a container image tells Podman to run the container with just these capabilities. Podman launches the container with just the specified capabilities, as long as this list of capabilities is a subset of the default list.

If the specified capabilities are not in the default set, Podman prints an error message and runs the container with the default capabilities.

  --layer-label=label[=value]
Add an intermediate image label (e.g. label=value) to the intermediate image metadata. It can be used multiple times.

If label is named, but neither = nor a value is provided, then the label is set to an empty value.

  --layers
Cache intermediate images during the build process (Default is true).

Note: You can also override the default value of layers by setting the BUILDAH_LAYERS environment variable. export BUILDAH_LAYERS=true

  --local, -l
Build image on local machine as well as on farm nodes.

  --logfile=filename
Log output which is sent to standard output and standard error to the specified file instead of to standard output and standard error. This option is not supported on the remote client, including Mac and Windows (excluding WSL2) machines.

  --memory, -m=number[unit]
Memory limit. A unit can be b (bytes), k (kibibytes), m (mebibytes), or g (gibibytes).

Allows the memory available to a container to be constrained. If the host supports swap memory, then the --memory memory setting can be larger than physical RAM. If a limit of 0 is specified (not using --memory), the container's memory is not limited. The actual limit may be rounded up to a multiple of the operating system's page size (the value is very large, that's millions of trillions).

This option is not supported on cgroups V1 rootless systems.

  --memory-swap=number[unit]
A limit value equal to memory plus swap. A unit can be b (bytes), k (kibibytes), m (mebibytes), or g (gibibytes).

Must be used with the -m (--memory) flag. The argument value must be larger than that of
 -m (--memory) By default, it is set to double the value of --memory.

Set number to -1 to enable unlimited swap.

This option is not supported on cgroups V1 rootless systems.

  --mount=mount-specification
Adds this mount to each RUN command in a Containerfile before executing. For example:

podman build --mount=type=secret,id=mysecret …

and a Containerfile entry of:

RUN cat /run/secrets/mysecret

Has the same effect as:

RUN --mount=type=secret,id=mysecret cat /run/secrets/mysecret

  --network=mode, --net
Sets the configuration for network namespaces when handling RUN instructions.

Valid mode values are:

•   none: no networking.

•   host: use the Podman host network stack. Note: the host mode gives the container full access to local system services such as D-bus and is therefore considered insecure.

•   ns:path: path to a network namespace to join.

•   private: create a new namespace for the container (default)

•   <network name|ID>: Join the network with the given name or ID, e.g. use --network mynet to join the network with the name mynet. Only supported for rootful users.

•   pasta[:OPTIONS,...]: use pasta(1) to create a user-mode networking stack.
    This is the default for rootless containers and only supported in rootless mode.
    By default, IPv4 and IPv6 addresses and routes, as well as the pod interface name, are copied from the host. If port forwarding isn't configured, ports are forwarded dynamically as services are bound on either side (init namespace or container namespace). Port forwarding preserves the original source IP address. Options described in pasta(1) can be specified as comma-separated arguments.
    In terms of pasta(1) options, --config-net is given by default, in order to configure networking when the container is started, and --no-map-gw is also assumed by default, to avoid direct access from container to host using the gateway address. The latter can be overridden by passing --map-gw in the pasta-specific options (despite not being an actual pasta(1) option).
    Also, -t none and -u none are passed to disable automatic port forwarding based on bound ports. Similarly, -T none and -U none are given to disable the same functionality from container to host.
    Some examples:

    •   pasta:--map-gw: Allow the container to directly reach the host using the gateway address.

    •   pasta:--mtu,1500: Specify a 1500 bytes MTU for the tap interface in the container.

    •   pasta:--ipv4-only,-a,10.0.2.0,-n,24,-g,10.0.2.2,--dns-forward,10.0.2.3,-m,1500,--no-ndp,--no-dhcpv6,--no-dhcp: disable IPv6, assign 10.0.2.0/24 to the tap0 interface in the container, with gateway 10.0.2.3, enable DNS forwarder reachable at 10.0.2.3, set MTU to 1500 bytes, disable NDP, DHCPv6 and DHCP support.

    •   pasta:-I,tap0,--ipv4-only,-a,10.0.2.0,-n,24,-g,10.0.2.2,--dns-forward,10.0.2.3,--no-ndp,--no-dhcpv6,--no-dhcp: same as above, but leave the MTU to 65520 bytes

    •   pasta:-t,auto,-u,auto,-T,auto,-U,auto: enable automatic port forwarding based on observed bound ports from both host and container sides

    •   pasta:-T,5201: enable forwarding of TCP port 5201 from container to host, using the loopback interface instead of the tap interface for improved performance

  --no-cache
Do not use existing cached images for the container build. Build from the start with a new set of cached layers.

  --no-hostname
Do not create the /etc/hostname file in the containers.

By default, Podman manages the /etc/hostname file, adding the container's own hostname. When the --no-hostname option is set, the image's /etc/hostname will be preserved unmodified if it exists.

  --no-hosts
Do not modify the /etc/hosts file in the container.

Podman assumes control over the container's /etc/hosts file by default and adds entries for the container's name (see --name option) and hostname (see --hostname option), the internal host.containers.internal and host.docker.internal hosts, as well as any hostname added using the --add-host option. Refer to the --add-host option for details. Passing --no-hosts disables this, so that the image's /etc/hosts file is kept unmodified. The same can be achieved globally by setting no_hosts=true in containers.conf.

This option conflicts with --add-host.

  --omit-history
Omit build history information in the built image. (default false).

This option is useful for the cases where end users explicitly want to set --omit-history to omit the optional History from built images or when working with images built using build tools that do not include History information in their images.

  --os-feature=feature
Set the name of a required operating system feature for the image which is built. By default, if the image is not based on scratch, the base image's required OS feature list is kept, if the base image specified any. This option is typically only meaningful when the image's OS is Windows.

If feature has a trailing -, then the feature is removed from the set of required features which is listed in the image.

  --os-version=version
Set the exact required operating system version for the image which is built. By default, if the image is not based on scratch, the base image's required OS version is kept, if the base image specified one. This option is typically only meaningful when the image's OS is Windows, and is typically set in Windows base images, so using this option is usually unnecessary.

  --pid=pid
Sets the configuration for PID namespaces when handling RUN instructions. The configured value can be "" (the empty string) or "container" to indicate that a new PID namespace is created, or it can be "host" to indicate that the PID namespace in which podman itself is being run is reused, or it can be the path to a PID namespace which is already in use by another process.

  --platforms=p1,p2,p3...
Build only on farm nodes that match the given platforms.

  --pull=policy
Pull image policy. The default is missing.

•   always: Always pull the image and throw an error if the pull fails.

•   missing: Only pull the image when it does not exist in the local containers storage. Throw an error if no image is found and the pull fails.

•   never: Never pull the image but use the one from the local containers storage. Throw an error when no image is found.

•   newer: Pull if the image on the registry is newer than the one in the local containers storage. An image is considered to be newer when the digests are different. Comparing the time stamps is prone to errors. Pull errors are suppressed if a local image was found.

  --quiet, -q
Suppress informational output messages (which indicate which instruction is being processed, and the progress of the instruction). Print only the final error message or successful completion information, such as the image or container ID.

  --retry=attempts
Number of times to retry pulling or pushing images between the registry and local storage in case of failure. Default is 3.

  --retry-delay=duration
Duration of delay between retry attempts when pulling or pushing images between the registry and local storage in case of failure. The default is to start at two seconds and then exponentially back off. The delay is used when this value is set, and no exponential back off occurs.

  --rewrite-timestamp
When generating new layers for the image, ensure that no newly added content bears a timestamp later than the value used by the --source-date-epoch flag, if one was provided, by replacing any timestamps which are later than that value, with that value.

  --rm
Remove intermediate containers after a successful build (default true).

  --runtime=path
The path to an alternate OCI-compatible runtime, which is used to run commands specified by the RUN instruction.

Note: You can also override the default runtime by setting the BUILDAH_RUNTIME environment variable. export BUILDAH_RUNTIME=/usr/local/bin/runc

  --runtime-flag=flag
Adds global flags for the container runtime. To list the supported flags, please consult the manpages of the selected container runtime.

Default runtime flags can be added in containers.conf.

Note: Do not pass the leading -- to the flag. To pass the runc flag --log-format json to buildah build, the option given is --runtime-flag log-format=json.

  --save-stages
Preserve intermediate stage images instead of removing them after the build completes (Default is false). By default, Buildah removes intermediate stage images to save space. This option keeps those images, which can be useful for debugging multi-stage builds or for reusing intermediate stages in subsequent builds.

--save-stages can be used with --layers and subsequent builds with --layers can use the preserved intermediate layers as cache.

When combined with --stage-labels, all stage images (including the final image) will include metadata labels for easier identification and management.

  --sbom=preset
Generate SBOMs (Software Bills Of Materials) for the output image by scanning the working container and build contexts using the named combination of scanner image, scanner commands, and merge strategy. Must be specified with one or more of --sbom-image-output, --sbom-image-purl-output, --sbom-output, and --sbom-purl-output. Recognized presets, and the set of options which they equate to:

•   "syft", "syft-cyclonedx":
     --sbom-scanner-image=ghcr.io/anchore/syft
     --sbom-scanner-command="/syft scan -q dir:{ROOTFS} --output cyclonedx-json={OUTPUT}"
     --sbom-scanner-command="/syft scan -q dir:{CONTEXT} --output cyclonedx-json={OUTPUT}"
     --sbom-merge-strategy=merge-cyclonedx-by-component-name-and-version

•   "syft-spdx":
     --sbom-scanner-image=ghcr.io/anchore/syft
     --sbom-scanner-command="/syft scan -q dir:{ROOTFS} --output spdx-json={OUTPUT}"
     --sbom-scanner-command="/syft scan -q dir:{CONTEXT} --output spdx-json={OUTPUT}"
     --sbom-merge-strategy=merge-spdx-by-package-name-and-versioninfo

•   "trivy", "trivy-cyclonedx":
     --sbom-scanner-image=ghcr.io/aquasecurity/trivy
     --sbom-scanner-command="trivy filesystem -q {ROOTFS} --format cyclonedx --output {OUTPUT}"
     --sbom-scanner-command="trivy filesystem -q {CONTEXT} --format cyclonedx --output {OUTPUT}"
     --sbom-merge-strategy=merge-cyclonedx-by-component-name-and-version

•   "trivy-spdx":
     --sbom-scanner-image=ghcr.io/aquasecurity/trivy
     --sbom-scanner-command="trivy filesystem -q {ROOTFS} --format spdx-json --output {OUTPUT}"
     --sbom-scanner-command="trivy filesystem -q {CONTEXT} --format spdx-json --output {OUTPUT}"
     --sbom-merge-strategy=merge-spdx-by-package-name-and-versioninfo

  --sbom-image-output=path
When generating SBOMs, store the generated SBOM in the specified path in the output image. There is no default.

  --sbom-image-purl-output=path
When generating SBOMs, scan them for PURL (package URL ⟨https://github.com/package-url/purl-spec/blob/master/PURL-SPECIFICATION.rst⟩) information, and save a list of found PURLs to the specified path in the output image. There is no default.

  --sbom-merge-strategy=method
If more than one --sbom-scanner-command value is being used, use the specified method to merge the output from later commands with output from earlier commands. Recognized values include:

•   cat
     Concatenate the files.

•   merge-cyclonedx-by-component-name-and-version
     Merge the "component" fields of JSON documents, ignoring values from
     documents when the combination of their "name" and "version" values is
     already present. Documents are processed in the order in which they are
     generated, which is the order in which the commands that generate them
     were specified.

•   merge-spdx-by-package-name-and-versioninfo
     Merge the "package" fields of JSON documents, ignoring values from
     documents when the combination of their "name" and "versionInfo" values is
     already present. Documents are processed in the order in which they are
     generated, which is the order in which the commands that generate them
     were specified.

  --sbom-output=file
When generating SBOMs, store the generated SBOM in the named file on the local filesystem. There is no default.

  --sbom-purl-output=file
When generating SBOMs, scan them for PURL (package URL ⟨https://github.com/package-url/purl-spec/blob/master/PURL-SPECIFICATION.rst⟩) information, and save a list of found PURLs to the named file in the local filesystem. There is no default.

  --sbom-scanner-command=image
Generate SBOMs by running the specified command from the scanner image. If multiple commands are specified, they are run in the order in which they are specified. These text substitutions are performed:
  - {ROOTFS}
      The root of the built image's filesystem, bind mounted.
  - {CONTEXT}
      The build context and additional build contexts, bind mounted.
  - {OUTPUT}
      The name of a temporary output file, to be read and merged with others or copied elsewhere.

  --sbom-scanner-image=image
Generate SBOMs using the specified scanner image.

  --secret=id=id[,src=envOrFile][,env=ENV][,type=file | env]
Pass secret information to be used in the Containerfile for building images in a safe way that will not end up stored in the final image, or be seen in other stages. The value of the secret will be read from an environment variable or file named by the "id" option, or named by the "src" option if it is specified, or from an environment variable specified by the "env" option. See EXAMPLES ⟨#examples⟩. The secret will be mounted in the container at /run/secrets/id by default.

To later use the secret, use the --mount flag in a RUN instruction within a Containerfile:

RUN --mount=type=secret,id=mysecret cat /run/secrets/mysecret

The location of the secret in the container can be overridden using the "target", "dst", or "destination" option of the RUN --mount flag.

RUN --mount=type=secret,id=mysecret,target=/run/secrets/myothersecret cat /run/secrets/myothersecret

Note: changing the contents of secret files will not trigger a rebuild of layers that use said secrets.

  --security-opt=option
Security Options

•   apparmor=unconfined : Turn off apparmor confinement for the container

•   apparmor=alternate-profile : Set the apparmor confinement profile for the container

•   label=user:USER : Set the label user for the container processes

•   label=role:ROLE : Set the label role for the container processes

•   label=type:TYPE : Set the label process type for the container processes

•   label=level:LEVEL : Set the label level for the container processes

•   label=filetype:TYPE : Set the label file type for the container files

•   label=disable : Turn off label separation for the container

•   no-new-privileges : Disable container processes from gaining additional privileges

•   seccomp=unconfined : Turn off seccomp confinement for the container

•   seccomp=profile.json : JSON file to be used as the seccomp filter for the container.

  --shm-size=number[unit]
Size of /dev/shm. A unit can be b (bytes), k (kibibytes), m (mebibytes), or g (gibibytes). If the unit is omitted, the system uses bytes. If the size is omitted, the default is 64m. When size is 0, there is no limit on the amount of memory used for IPC by the container. This option conflicts with --ipc=host.

  --skip-unused-stages
Skip stages in multi-stage builds which don't affect the target stage. (Default: true).

  --source-date-epoch=seconds
Set the "created" timestamp for the built image to this number of seconds since the epoch (Unix time 0, i.e., 00:00:00 UTC on 1 January 1970) (default is to use the value set in the SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH environment variable, or the current time if it is not set).

The "created" timestamp is written into the image's configuration and manifest when the image is committed, so running the same build two different times will ordinarily produce images with different sha256 hashes, even if no other changes were made to the Containerfile and build context.

When this flag is set, a SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH build arg will provide its value for a stage in which it is declared.

When this flag is set, the image configuration's "created" timestamp is always set to the time specified, which should allow for identical images to be built at different times using the same set of inputs.

When this flag is set, output written as specified to the --output flag will bear exactly the specified timestamp.

Conflicts with the similar --timestamp flag, which also sets its specified time on the contents of new layers.

  --source-policy-file=pathname
Specifies the path to a BuildKit-compatible source policy JSON file. When specified, source references (e.g., base images in FROM instructions) are evaluated against the policy rules before being used.

Source policies allow controlling which images can be used as base images and optionally converting image references (e.g., pinning tags to specific digests) without modifying Containerfiles. This is useful for enforcing organizational policies and ensuring build reproducibility.

The policy file is a JSON document containing an array of rules. Each rule has: - action: The action to take when the rule matches. Valid actions are:
  - ALLOW: Explicitly allow the source (no transformation).
  - DENY: Block the source and fail the build.
  - CONVERT: Transform the source to a different reference specified in updates. - selector: Specifies which sources the rule applies to.
  - identifier: The source identifier to match (e.g., docker-image://docker.io/library/alpine:latest).
  - matchType: How to match the identifier. Valid types are EXACT and WILDCARD (supports * and ? glob patterns). Defaults to WILDCARD if not specified. - updates: For CONVERT actions, specifies the replacement identifier.

Rules are evaluated in order; the first matching rule wins. If no rule matches, the source is allowed by default.

Note: Source policy CONVERT rules are processed after --build-context substitutions but before any substitutions specified in containers-registries.conf(5). This provides multiple ways to override which base image is used for a particular stage, in order of precedence: --build-context, then source policy, then registries.conf.

Example policy file that pins alpine:latest to a specific digest:
    {
      "rules": [
        {
          "action": "CONVERT",
          "selector": {
            "identifier": "docker-image://docker.io/library/alpine:latest"
          },
          "updates": {
            "identifier": "docker-image://docker.io/library/alpine@sha256:..."
          }
        }
      ]
    }

Example policy file that denies all ubuntu images:
    {
      "rules": [
        {
          "action": "DENY",
          "selector": {
            "identifier": "docker-image://docker.io/library/ubuntu:*",
            "matchType": "WILDCARD"
          }
        }
      ]
    }

  --squash
Squash all of the image's new layers into a single new layer; any preexisting layers are not squashed.

  --squash-all
Squash all of the new image's layers (including those inherited from a base image) into a single new layer.

  --ssh=default | id[=socket>
SSH agent socket or keys to expose to the build. The socket path can be left empty to use the value of default=$SSH_AUTH_SOCK

To later use the ssh agent, use the --mount option in a RUN instruction within a Containerfile:

RUN --mount=type=ssh,id=id mycmd

  --stage-labels
Add metadata labels to all intermediate stage images of the multistage build, including the final image (Default is false). This option requires --save-stages to be enabled.

When enabled, all intermediate stage images and final image will be labeled with:
  - io.buildah.stage.name: The stage alias (from FROM ... AS alias), or stage position
    if no alias is specified
  - io.buildah.stage.base: The base image used by this stage (pullspec or image ID
    when stage uses another stage as base)

These labels make it easier to identify, query, and manage images from multi-stage builds.

  --tag, -t=imageName
Specifies the name which is assigned to the resulting image if the build process completes successfully. If imageName does not include a registry name, the registry name localhost is prepended to the image name.

  --target=stageName
Set the target build stage to build. When building a Containerfile with multiple build stages, --target can be used to specify an intermediate build stage by name as the final stage for the resulting image. Commands after the target stage is skipped.

  --timestamp=seconds
Set the create timestamp to seconds since epoch to allow for deterministic builds (defaults to current time). By default, the created timestamp is changed and written into the image manifest with every commit, causing the image's sha256 hash to be different even if the sources are exactly the same otherwise. When --timestamp is set, the created timestamp is always set to the time specified and therefore not changed, allowing the image's sha256 hash to remain the same. All files committed to the layers of the image is created with the timestamp.

If the only instruction in a Containerfile is FROM, this flag has no effect.

  --tls-verify
Require HTTPS and verify certificates when contacting registries (default: true). If explicitly set to true, TLS verification is used. If set to false, TLS verification is not used. If not specified, TLS verification is used unless the target registry is listed as an insecure registry in containers-registries.conf(5)

  --ulimit=type=soft-limit[:hard-limit]
Specifies resource limits to apply to processes launched when processing RUN instructions. This option can be specified multiple times. Recognized resource types include:
  "core": maximum core dump size (ulimit -c)
  "cpu": maximum CPU time (ulimit -t)
  "data": maximum size of a process's data segment (ulimit -d)
  "fsize": maximum size of new files (ulimit -f)
  "locks": maximum number of file locks (ulimit -x)
  "memlock": maximum amount of locked memory (ulimit -l)
  "msgqueue": maximum amount of data in message queues (ulimit -q)
  "nice": niceness adjustment (nice -n, ulimit -e)
  "nofile": maximum number of open files (ulimit -n)
  "nproc": maximum number of processes (ulimit -u)
  "rss": maximum size of a process's (ulimit -m)
  "rtprio": maximum real-time scheduling priority (ulimit -r)
  "rttime": maximum amount of real-time execution between blocking syscalls
  "sigpending": maximum number of pending signals (ulimit -i)
  "stack": maximum stack size (ulimit -s)

  --unsetannotation=annotation
Unset the image annotation, causing the annotation not to be inherited from the base image.

  --unsetenv=env
Unset environment variables from the final image.

  --unsetlabel=label
Unset the image label, causing the label not to be inherited from the base image.

  --userns=how
Sets the configuration for user namespaces when handling RUN instructions. The configured value can be "" (the empty string) or "container" to indicate that a new user namespace is created, it can be "host" to indicate that the user namespace in which podman itself is being run is reused, or it can be the path to a user namespace which is already in use by another process.

  --userns-gid-map=mapping
Directly specifies a GID mapping to be used to set ownership, at the filesystem level, on the working container's contents. Commands run when handling RUN instructions defaults to being run in their own user namespaces, configured using the UID and GID maps.

Entries in this map take the form of one or more triples of a starting in-container GID, a corresponding starting host-level GID, and the number of consecutive IDs which the map entry represents.

This option overrides the remap-gids setting in the options section of /etc/containers/storage.conf.

If this option is not specified, but a global --userns-gid-map setting is supplied, settings from the global option is used.

If none of --userns-uid-map-user, --userns-gid-map-group, or --userns-gid-map are specified, but --userns-uid-map is specified, the GID map is set to use the same numeric values as the UID map.

  --userns-gid-map-group=group
Specifies that a GID mapping to be used to set ownership, at the filesystem level, on the working container's contents, can be found in entries in the /etc/subgid file which correspond to the specified group. Commands run when handling RUN instructions defaults to being run in their own user namespaces, configured using the UID and GID maps. If --userns-uid-map-user is specified, but --userns-gid-map-group is not specified, podman assumes that the specified user name is also a suitable group name to use as the default setting for this option.

NOTE: When this option is specified by a rootless user, the specified mappings are relative to the rootless user namespace in the container, rather than being relative to the host as it is when run rootful.

  --userns-uid-map=mapping
Directly specifies a UID mapping to be used to set ownership, at the filesystem level, on the working container's contents. Commands run when handling RUN instructions default to being run in their own user namespaces, configured using the UID and GID maps.

Entries in this map take the form of one or more triples of a starting in-container UID, a corresponding starting host-level UID, and the number of consecutive IDs which the map entry represents.

This option overrides the remap-uids setting in the options section of /etc/containers/storage.conf.

If this option is not specified, but a global --userns-uid-map setting is supplied, settings from the global option is used.

If none of --userns-uid-map-user, --userns-gid-map-group, or --userns-uid-map are specified, but --userns-gid-map is specified, the UID map is set to use the same numeric values as the GID map.

  --userns-uid-map-user=user
Specifies that a UID mapping to be used to set ownership, at the filesystem level, on the working container's contents, can be found in entries in the /etc/subuid file which correspond to the specified user. Commands run when handling RUN instructions defaults to being run in their own user namespaces, configured using the UID and GID maps. If --userns-gid-map-group is specified, but --userns-uid-map-user is not specified, podman assumes that the specified group name is also a suitable user name to use as the default setting for this option.

NOTE: When this option is specified by a rootless user, the specified mappings are relative to the rootless user namespace in the container, rather than being relative to the host as it is when run rootful.

  --uts=how
Sets the configuration for UTS namespaces when handling RUN instructions. The configured value can be "" (the empty string) or "container" to indicate that a new UTS namespace to be created, or it can be "host" to indicate that the UTS namespace in which podman itself is being run is reused, or it can be the path to a UTS namespace which is already in use by another process.

  --volume, -v=[HOST-DIR:CONTAINER-DIR[:OPTIONS]]
Mount a host directory into containers when executing RUN instructions during the build.

The OPTIONS are a comma-separated list and can be one or more of:

•   [rw|ro]

•   [z|Z|O]

•   [U]

•   [[r]shared|[r]slave|[r]private][1] ⟨#Footnote1⟩

The CONTAINER-DIR must be an absolute path such as /src/docs. The HOST-DIR must be an absolute path as well. Podman bind-mounts the HOST-DIR to the specified path when processing RUN instructions.

You can specify multiple -v options to mount one or more mounts.

You can add the :ro or :rw suffix to a volume to mount it read-only or read-write mode, respectively. By default, the volumes are mounted read-write. See examples.

Chowning Volume Mounts

By default, Podman does not change the owner and group of source volume directories mounted. When running using user namespaces, the UID and GID inside the namespace may correspond to another UID and GID on the host.

The :U suffix tells Podman to use the correct host UID and GID based on the UID and GID within the namespace, to change recursively the owner and group of the source volume.

Warning use with caution since this modifies the host filesystem.

Labeling Volume Mounts

Labeling systems like SELinux require that proper labels are placed on volume content mounted into a container. Without a label, the security system might prevent the processes running inside the container from using the content. By default, Podman does not change the labels set by the OS.

To change a label in the container context, add one of these two suffixes :z or :Z to the volume mount. These suffixes tell Podman to relabel file objects on the shared volumes. The z option tells Podman that two containers share the volume content. As a result, Podman labels the content with a shared content label. Shared volume labels allow all containers to read/write content. The Z option tells Podman to label the content with a private unshared label. Only the current container can use a private volume.

Note: Do not relabel system files and directories. Relabeling system content might cause other confined services on the host machine to fail. For these types of containers, disabling SELinux separation is recommended. The option --security-opt label=disable disables SELinux separation for the container. For example, if a user wanted to volume mount their entire home directory into the build containers, they need to disable SELinux separation.
    $ podman build --security-opt label=disable -v $HOME:/home/user .

Overlay Volume Mounts

The :O flag tells Podman to mount the directory from the host as a temporary storage using the Overlay file system. The RUN command containers are allowed to modify contents within the mountpoint and are stored in the container storage in a separate directory. In Overlay FS terms the source directory is the lower, and the container storage directory is the upper. Modifications to the mount point are destroyed when the RUN command finishes executing, similar to a tmpfs mount point.

Any subsequent execution of RUN commands sees the original source directory content, any changes from previous RUN commands no longer exists.

One use case of the overlay mount is sharing the package cache from the host into the container to allow speeding up builds.

Note:

•   Overlay mounts are not currently supported in rootless mode.

•   The O flag is not allowed to be specified with the Z or z flags. Content mounted into the container is labeled with the private label. On SELinux systems, labels in the source directory needs to be readable by the container label. If not, SELinux container separation must be disabled for the container to work.

•   Modification of the directory volume mounted into the container with an overlay mount can cause unexpected failures. Do not modify the directory until the container finishes running.

By default bind mounted volumes are private. That means any mounts done inside containers are not be visible on the host and vice versa. This behavior can be changed by specifying a volume mount propagation property.

When the mount propagation policy is set to shared, any mounts completed inside the container on that volume is visible to both the host and container. When the mount propagation policy is set to slave, one way mount propagation is enabled and any mounts completed on the host for that volume is visible only inside of the container. To control the mount propagation property of volume use the :[r]shared, :[r]slave or :[r]private propagation flag. For mount propagation to work on the source mount point (mount point where source dir is mounted on) has to have the right propagation properties. For shared volumes, the source mount point has to be shared. And for slave volumes, the source mount has to be either shared or slave. [1] ⟨#Footnote1⟩

Use df <source-dir> to determine the source mount and then use findmnt -o TARGET,PROPAGATION <source-mount-dir> to determine propagation properties of source mount, if findmnt utility is not available, the source mount point can be determined by looking at the mount entry in /proc/self/mountinfo. Look at optional fields and see if any propagation properties are specified. shared:X means the mount is shared, master:X means the mount is slave and if nothing is there that means the mount is private. [1] ⟨#Footnote1⟩

To change propagation properties of a mount point use the mount command. For example, to bind mount the source directory /foo do mount --bind /foo /foo and mount --make-private --make-shared /foo. This converts /foo into a shared mount point. The propagation properties of the source mount can be changed directly. For instance if / is the source mount for /foo, then use mount --make-shared / to convert / into a shared mount.

FOOTNOTES
1: The Podman project is committed to inclusivity, a core value of open source. The master and slave mount propagation terminology used here is problematic and divisive, and needs to be changed. However, these terms are currently used within the Linux kernel and must be used as-is at this time. When the kernel maintainers rectify this usage, Podman will follow suit immediately.
