Description

Podman enables running standard docker containers without the usual docker daemon. This has some benefits from a security perspective, with the key point of enabling containers to run as an unprivileged user. Podman also has the concept of a 'pod', which is a shared namespace where multiple containers can be deployed and communicate with each other over the loopback address of '127.0.0.1'.

Podman version 4.4 and later include support for quadlets that enable managing containers directly with systemd unit files and services. This greatly simplies managing podman services and is now supported by this module with the new 'quadlet' defined type that manages the systemd unit files and resulting services.

The defined types 'pod', 'image', 'volume', 'secret' and 'container' are essentially wrappers around the respective podman "create" commands (podman <type> create). The defined types support all flags for the command, but require them to be expressed using the long form (--env instead of -e). Flags that don't require values should set the value to undef (use ~ or null in YAML). Flags that are used more than once should be expressed as an array. The Jenkins example configuration below demonstrates some of this in the flags and service_flags hashes.

Setup

The module installs packages including 'podman', 'skopeo', and optionally 'podman-docker'. The 'podman' package provides core functionality for running containers, while 'skopeo' is used to check for container image updates. The 'podman-docker' package provides a 'docker' command for those that are used to typing 'docker' instead of 'podman' (the 'podman' command is purposefully compatible with 'docker').

Simply including the module is enough to install the packages. There is no service associated with podman, so the module just installs the packages. Management of 'pods', 'images', 'volumes', 'containers' and 'quadlets' is done using defined types. The module's defined types are all implemented in the main 'podman' class, allowing resources to be declared as hiera hashes. See the reference for usage of the defined types.

Usage

Assign the module to node(s):

include podman

With the module assigned you can manage podman resources using hiera data. When podman defined types are used with the user parameter the resources will be owned by the defined user to support rootless containers. Using rootless containers this way also enables 'loginctl enable-linger' on the user so rootless containers can start and run automatically under the assigned user account when the system boots.

The module implements quadlet support by allowing the systemd unit file to be represented as a hash. The only quirk with this is that systemd unit files can have sections with duplicate keys while hashes must have unique keys. To work around this you can express hash keys with an array of values to producce the desired systemd unit file. The following hiera data shows this with the 'PublishPort' key. Note that the rootless "jenkins" user must also be managed as a puppet resource with a UID and valid subuid/subgid mappings - see the last example here for those resources.

podman::quadlets:
  jenkins-v0:
    quadlet_type: "volume"
    user: jenkins
    settings:
      Install:
        WantedBy: jenkins.service
  jenkins:
    user: jenkins
    settings:
      Container:
        Image: 'docker.io/jenkins/jenkins:lts'
        PublishPort:
          - '8080:8080'
          - '5000:5000'
        Environment: 'JENKINS_OPTS="--prefix=/jenkins"'
        Volume: "systemd-jenkins-v0:/var/jenkins_home"
      Service:
        TimeoutStartSec: 300
      Unit:
        Requires: "jenkins-v0-volume.service"

General podman and systemd notes

Be aware of how to work with podman and systemd user services when running rootless containers. The systemd and podman commands rely on the 'XDG_RUNTIME_DIR' environment variable that is normally set during login by pam_systemd. When you switch users this value will likely need to be set in the shell as follows:

su - <container_user>
export XDG_RUNTIME_DIR=/run/user/$(id -u)

Systemd user services use the same 'systemctl' commands, but with the --user flag. As the container user with the environment set, you an run podman and 'systemctl' commands.

podman container list [-a]

systemctl --user status podman-<container_name>

containerd configuration

This module also contains minimal support for editing the containerd configuration files that control some of the lower level settings for how containers are created. Currently, the only supported configuration files are /etc/containers/storage.conf and /etc/containers/containers.conf. You should be able to set any of the settings with those files using the $podman::storage_options and $podman::containers_options parameters respectively. For example (if using Hiera):

podman::storage_options:
  storage:
    rootless_storage_path: '"/tmp/containers-user-$UID/storage"'

podman::containers_options:
  engine:
    cgroup_manager: '"cgroupfs"'

Note the use of double quotes inside single quotes above. This is due to the way the puppetlabs/inifile module works currently.

Examples

The following example is a hiera-based role that leverages the types module to manage some dependent resources, then uses this module to deploy a rootless Jenkins container. Note that the environment here is using hiera lookup for class assignments. The example will perform the following configuration:

• Create the jenkins user, group, and home directory using the types module
• Manage the /etc/subuid and /etc/subgid files, creating entries for the jenkins user
• Use loginctl to enable-linger on the 'jenkins' user so the user's containers can run as a systemd user service
• Creates volume jenkins owned by user jenkins
• Creates container jenkins from the defined image source owned by user jenkins
• Creates secret db_pass with secret version and gives it to jenkins container as an environment variable.
• Sets container flags to label the container, publish ports, and attach the previously created jenkins volume
• Set service flags for the systemd service to timeout at 60 seconds
• A systemd service podman-<container_name> is created, enabled, and started that runs as a user service
• The container will be re-deployed any time the image source digest does not match the running container image because the default defined type parameter podman::container::update defaults to true
• Creates a firewall rule on the host to allow connections to port 8080, which is published by the container. The rule is created with the firewalld_port type from the firewalld module, using the types module again so it can be defined entirely in hiera.

Several additional examples are in a separate github project, including a Traefik container configuration that enables SSL termination and proxy access to other containers running on the host, with a dynamic configuration directory enabling updates to proxy rules as new containers are added and/or removed.

Limitations

The module was written and tested with RedHat/CentOS, but should work with any distribution that uses systemd and includes the podman and skopeo packages

                   },
  service_flags => { timeout => '60' },
}

Parameters

The following parameters are available in the podman::container defined type:

• image
• user
• flags
• service_flags
• command
• ensure
• enable
• update
• ruby

image

Data type: Optional[String]

Container registry source of the image being deployed. Required when ensure is present but optional when ensure is set to absent.

Default value: undef

user

Data type: Optional[String]

Optional user for running rootless containers. For rootless containers, the user must also be defined as a puppet resource that includes at least 'uid', 'gid', and 'home' attributes.

Default value: undef

flags

Data type: Hash

All flags for the 'podman container create' command are supported via the 'flags' hash parameter, using only the long form of the flag name. The container name will be set as the resource name (namevar) unless the 'name' flag is included in the flags hash. If the flags for a container resource are modified the container will be destroyed and re-deployed during the next puppet run. This is achieved by storing the complete set of flags as a base64 encoded string in a container label named puppet_resource_flags so it can be compared with the assigned resource state. Flags that can be used more than once should be expressed as an array. For flags which take no arguments, set the hash value to be undef. In the YAML representation you can use ~ or null as the value.

Default value: {}

service_flags

Data type: Hash

When a container is created, a systemd unit file for the container service is generated using the 'podman generate systemd' command. All flags for the command are supported using the 'service_flags' hash parameter, again using only the long form of the flag names.

Default value: {}

command

Data type: Optional[String]

Optional command to be used as the container entry point.

Default value: undef

ensure

Data type: Enum['present', 'absent']

Valid values are 'present' or 'absent'

Default value: 'present'

enable

Data type: Boolean

Status of the automatically generated systemd service for the container. Valid values are 'running' or 'stopped'.

Default value: true

update

Data type: Boolean

When true, the container will be redeployed when a new container image is detected in the container registry. This is done by comparing the digest value of the running container image with the digest of the registry image. When false, the container will only be redeployed when the declared state of the puppet resource is changed.

Default value: true

ruby

Data type: Optional[Stdlib::Unixpath]

The absolute path to the ruby binary to use in scripts. The default path is '/opt/puppetlabs/puppet/bin/ruby' for Puppetlabs packaged puppet, and '/usr/bin/ruby' for all others.

• Fix for container image removal when $update is true. Can't reference a container image after the container has been deleted...

Release 0.2.5

• Fix container removal when set to 'absent'
• Fix to re-deploy container when the defined resource image is changed. Previously, a container would not be re-deployed when the $update parameter was set to false, even when the image declared in the resource definition had changed as reported by 'lukashartl'.

• The 'homedir' parameter was removed from all defined types. Defined types now directly reference attributes of the associated user resource and requires the user and home directory to be managed by puppet.
• Changed default value of manage_subuid to false. Recommend managing subuid/subgid outside this module, although the functionality to manage subuid/subgid files is still present.
• Stopped using resource default statements in favor of defining attributes with a hash.
