Installation
Podman can be installed via podman package in the community repository.
# apk add podman
Running as root
To run podman you'll need to enable the cgroups service, consider enabling cgroups v2.
# rc-update add cgroups
# rc-service cgroups start
You might need to restart your machine for this to work properly.
If you are running on top of Btrfs, consider setting storage driver to btrfs:
$ cat /etc/containers/storage.conf
driver = "btrfs"
Running in rootless mode
For rootless support (replace <USER> with your username):
# modprobe tun # echo tun >>/etc/modules # echo <USER>:100000:65536 >/etc/subuid # echo <USER>:100000:65536 >/etc/subgid
Run an example container to verify everything works:
$ podman run --rm hello-world

Podman provides a drop-in replacement for docker compose. The podman-compose package provides this.
Each time that docker compose is used, a warning will remind that this is using podman under the hood. This warning can be squelched permanently by running:
touch /etc/containers/nodocker
