Valentin Rothberg a334e780b5 podman.service: set doc to podman-system-service
podman-api(1) does not exist, so set the man page to
podman-system-service(1).  Same for the .socket.

Setting up Podman service for systemd socket activation

system-wide (podman service run as root)

  1. copy the podman.service and podman.socket files into /etc/systemd/system
  2. systemctl daemon-reload
  3. systemctl enable podman.socket
  4. systemctl start podman.socket
  5. systemctl status podman.socket podman.service

Assuming the status messages show no errors, the libpod service is ready to respond to the APIv2 on the unix domain socket /run/podman/podman.sock

podman.service

You can refer to this example for a sample podman.service file.

podman.socket

You can refer to this example for a sample podman.socket file.

user (podman service run as given user aka "rootless")

  1. mkdir -p ~/.config/systemd/user
  2. copy the podman.service and podman.socket files into ~/.config/systemd/user
  3. systemctl --user enable podman.socket
  4. systemctl --user start podman.socket
  5. systemctl --user status podman.socket podman.service

Assuming the status messages show no errors, the libpod service is ready to respond to the APIv2 on the unix domain socket /run/user/$(id -u)/podman/podman.sock

podman.service

You can refer to this example for a rootless podman.service file.

podman.socket

You can refer to this example for a rootless podman.socket file.
