image repository for podman
Hi All, I am new to podman. Pardon if this question is an obvious one. To pull docker images, we go to docker registry / hub : https://hub.docker.com Is there a podman registry or hub where we could find all the podman images? If there is no special registry or hub, what is the reason for that? Thank You Harish Gaddale
Harish, Welcome! It helps to think of things more generically. Here is the 1-2-3 of how I prefer to explain it. Container images are generic and follow one of two standards. Container images can be built or pulled (downloaded) from a container registry. The docker hub you refer to is a container image registry. Those images can be run by Podman, Docker, Kubernetes, etc. I hope the explanation helps. brent On Tue, Mar 12, 2024 at 1:23 PM Harish Gaddale <hrrishbalu@gmail.com> wrote:

Hi Harish, Just to follow up slightly on what Brent said. We had at one time considered creating a PodmanHub container image registry that emulated the DockerHub container image registry. Due to a variety of reasons, mostly time and $$$, we decided to not pursue it. Might it spring to life in the future? Perhaps, but I wouldn't bet on it. t On 3/12/24 14:27, Brent Baude wrote:

With Podman, you can use any number of registries that contain images. That includes Docker Hub, but also Quay at https://quay.io and https://registry.fedoraproject.org/ (and probably others that aren't coming to mind right now, or that I still have yet to discover) On Wed, Mar 13, 2024 at 7:23 AM Harish Gaddale <hrrishbalu@gmail.com> wrote:
