env

dictionary

Dictionary of key=value pairs to add as environment variable.

executable

string

Path to podman executable if it is not in the $PATH on the machine running podman.

Default: "podman"

file

path

Path to the Containerfile if it is not in the build context directory.

force_rm

boolean

Always remove intermediate containers after a build, even if the build is unsuccessful.

Choices:

• false
• true

group_add

aliases: groups

list / elements=string

Add additional groups to run as

ignore_file

aliases: ignorefile

path

name

string / required

Name of the image to build. It may contain a tag using the format image:tag.

network

aliases: net, network_mode

list / elements=string

List of the names of CNI networks the build should join during the RUN instructions.

password

string

Password to use when authenticating to remote registries.

pull

string

Pull image policy. The default is ‘missing’.

Choices:

• "missing"
• "always"
• "never"
• "newer"

quadlet_dir

path

Path to the directory to write quadlet file in. By default, it will be set as /etc/containers/systemd/ for root user, ~/.config/containers/systemd/ for non-root users.

quadlet_file_mode

any

The permissions of the quadlet file.

The quadlet_file_mode can be specified as octal numbers or as a symbolic mode (for example, u+rwx or u=rw,g=r,o=r). For octal numbers format, you must either add a leading zero so that Ansible’s YAML parser knows it is an octal number (like 0644 or 01777) or quote it (like '644' or '1777') so Ansible receives a string and can do its own conversion from string into number. Giving Ansible a number without following one of these rules will end up with a decimal number which will have unexpected results.

If quadlet_file_mode is not specified and the quadlet file does not exist, the default '0640' mask will be used when setting the mode for the newly created file.

If quadlet_file_mode is not specified and the quadlet file does exist, the mode of the existing file will be used.

Specifying quadlet_file_mode is the best way to ensure files are created with the correct permissions.

quadlet_filename

string

Name of quadlet file to write. By default it takes image name without prefixes and tags.

quadlet_options

list / elements=string

Options for the quadlet file. Provide missing in usual build args options as a list of lines to add.

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

retry_delay

aliases: retrydelay

string

Duration of delay between retry attempts when pulling or pushing images between the registry and local storage in case of failure.

secret

list / elements=string

Pass secret information used in Containerfile build stages in a safe way. Generally has the form secret[,opt=opt ...]. Can be specified multiple times.

set_working_directory

aliases: setworkingdirectory

string

Provide context (a working directory) to podman build.

target

string

Specify the target build stage to build.

username

string

username to use when authenticating to remote registries.

validate_certs

aliases: tlsverify, tls_verify
