This python package is a set of bindings to use the new RESTful API in libpod. It is currently under development and contributors are welcome!
from podman import ApiConnection, system, images, containers
# Provide a URI path for the libpod service. In libpod, the URI can be a unix
# domain socket(UDS) or TCP. The TCP connection has not been implemented in this
# package yet.
uri = "unix://localhost/run/podman/podman.sock"
with ApiConnection(uri) as api:
# results are written to the screen as python dictionaries
print(system.version(api))
# get all images
l_images = images.list_images(api)
# print the first one
print(l_images[0])
# find all containers
l_containers = containers.list_containers(api)
# assuming there is at least one
first_name = l_containers[0]['Names'][0]
# inspect that one
container_details = containers.inspect(api, first_name)
print(container_details)
# available fields
print(sorted(container_details.keys()))
print(images.remove(api, "alpine", force=True))See CONTRIBUTING.md
