I have a server using Podman running in a cloud.

1 - Is it possible to connect using podman-tui?
2 - If yes, can you add an example about how-to?

Hi @matheusfenolio
Thanks for reaching, podman-tui v0.3 (only for podman v4) supports remote system connections via SSH.

  • Press "F2" and switch to system page
  • Press "m" to open command dialog and select "add connection"
  • Fill out required information and then add the connection
    add_connection

If the SSH key has a passphrase, then you need to set and export "CONTAINER_PASSPHRASE=<password>" variable before running the application.

  • After adding the connection you can select "connect" from command dialog to connect to the remote node.

Connections configruation are written under ~/.config/podman-tui/podman-tui.conf for next startup usage as well.
