Got podman working with lima
podman $ ./bin/podman --url unix:///Users/razzi/.lima/podman/sock/podman.sock run -it debian root@e6f3c2aa79b5:/# exit ./⏎ podman $ ./bin/podman --version podman version 5.3.0-dev
Needed this lima command to start the podman machine:
limactl start template://podman
I got the url from lima's source:
lima $ cat cmd/podman.lima
#!/bin/sh
set -eu
: "${LIMA_INSTANCE:=podman}"
: "${PODMAN:=podman}"
if [ "$(limactl ls -q "$LIMA_INSTANCE" 2>/dev/null)" != "$LIMA_INSTANCE" ]; then
echo "instance \"$LIMA_INSTANCE\" does not exist, run \`limactl create --name=$LIMA_INSTANCE template://podman\` to create a new instance" >&2
exit 1
elif [ "$(limactl ls -f '{{ .Status }}' "$LIMA_INSTANCE" 2>/dev/null)" != "Running" ]; then
echo "instance \"$LIMA_INSTANCE\" is not running, run \`limactl start $LIMA_INSTANCE\` to start the existing instance" >&2
exit 1
fi
PODMAN=$(command -v "$PODMAN" || true)
if [ -n "$PODMAN" ]; then
CONTAINER_HOST=$(limactl list "$LIMA_INSTANCE" --format 'unix://{{.Dir}}/sock/podman.sock')
export CONTAINER_HOST
exec "$PODMAN" --remote "$@"
else
export LIMA_INSTANCE
exec lima podman "$@"
fi
Even simpler:
env LIMA_INSTANCE=podman lima podman run -it debian
https://github.com/runfinch/finch seems similar but it's a gui app or something?
Also this is the command I ran to get limactl to not prompt me. It ended with an error but seemed to work...?
lima $ limactl start template://podman --tty=false
