6 podman-pull - Pull an image from a registry
7
10 podman pull [options] name[:tag|@digest]
11 podman image pull [options] name[:tag|@digest]
14
17 Copies an image from a registry onto the local machine. podman pull
18 pulls an image from Docker Hub if a registry is not specified in the
19 command line argument. If an image tag is not specified, podman pull
20 defaults to the image with the latest tag (if it exists) and pulls it.
21 After the image is pulled, podman will print the full image ID. podman
22 pull can also pull an image using its digest podman pull image@digest.
23 podman pull can be used to pull images from archives and local storage
24 using different transports.
25
28 Image stored in local container/storage
29
32 The SOURCE is a location to get container images
33 The Image "SOURCE" uses a "transport":"details" format.
34 Multiple transports are supported:
37 dir:path
40 An existing local directory path storing the manifest, layer tarballs
41 and signatures as individual files. This is a non-standardized format,
42 primarily useful for debugging or noninvasive container inspection.
43 docker://docker-reference
46 An image in a registry implementing the "Docker Registry HTTP API
47 V2". By default, uses the authorization state in $XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/con‐
48 tainers/auth.json, which is set using (podman login). If the authoriza‐
49 tion state is not found there, $HOME/.docker/config.json is checked,
50 which is set using (docker login).
51 docker-archive:path[:docker-reference]
54 An image is stored in the docker save formatted file. docker-refer‐
55 ence is only used when creating such a file, and it must not contain a
56 digest.
57 docker-daemon:docker-reference
60 An image docker-reference stored in the docker daemon internal stor‐
61 age. docker-reference must contain either a tag or a digest. Alterna‐
62 tively, when reading images, the format can also be docker-dae‐
63 mon:algo:digest (an image ID).
64 oci-archive:path:tag
67 An image tag in a directory compliant with "Open Container Image Lay‐
68 out Specification" at path.
69 ostree:image[@/absolute/repo/path]
72 An image in local OSTree repository. /absolute/repo/path defaults to
73 /ostree/repo.
74
77 --all-tags, a
78 All tagged images in the repository will be pulled.
81 Note: When using the all-tags flag, Podman will not iterate over the
84 search registries in the containers-registries.conf(5) but will always
85 use docker.io for unqualified image names.
86 --authfile=path
89 Path of the authentication file. Default is ${XDG_RUNTIME_DIR}/contain‐
92 ers/auth.json, which is set using podman login. If the authorization
93 state is not found there, $HOME/.docker/config.json is checked, which
94 is set using docker login. (Not available for remote commands)
95 Note: You can also override the default path of the authentication file
98 by setting the REGISTRY_AUTH_FILE environment variable. export REG‐
99 ISTRY_AUTH_FILE=path
100 --cert-dir=path
103 Use certificates at path (*.crt, *.cert, *.key) to connect to the reg‐
106 istry. Default certificates directory is /etc/containers/certs.d. (Not
107 available for remote commands)
108 --creds=[username[:password]]
111 The [username[:password]] to use to authenticate with the registry if
114 required. If one or both values are not supplied, a command line
115 prompt will appear and the value can be entered. The password is
116 entered without echo.
117 --quiet, -q
120 Suppress output information when pulling images
123 --tls-verify=true|false
126 Require HTTPS and verify certificates when contacting registries
129 (default: true). If explicitly set to true, then TLS verification will
130 be used. If set to false, then TLS verification will not be used. If
131 not specified, TLS verification will be used unless the target registry
132 is listed as an insecure registry in registries.conf. (Not available
133 for remote commands)
