Is this a BUG REPORT or FEATURE REQUEST? (leave only one on its own line)

/kind bug

Description

Created a container using docker-compose - which goes up fine, we can see runnin "podman ps" the runnign container, however when we try to export this so we can run this at startup it fails with -

Error: container's create command is too short or invalid: [/usr/bin/podman --log-level=info system service]

Steps to reproduce the issue:

  1. Created container using docker-compose and started the container, verified its runinng.
root@kvm1:~/containers/dnsmasq# cat docker-compose.yml
version: '3'
services:
  dns:
    restart: always
    image: jpillora/dnsmasq
    # entrypoint: "webproc"
    command: "webproc --config /etc/dnsmasq.conf -- dnsmasq --no-daemon"
    volumes:
      - ./dnsmasq.conf:/etc/dnsmasq.conf
    ports:
      - "0.0.0.0:53:53/udp"
      - "0.0.0.0:5380:8080"
    cap_add:
      - NET_ADMIN
root@kvm1:~/containers/dnsmasq# export DOCKER_HOST=unix:///run/podman/podman.sock
root@kvm1:~/containers/dnsmasq# docker-compose up -d
Starting dnsmasq_dns_1 ... done
root@kvm1:~/containers/dnsmasq# podman ps
CONTAINER ID  IMAGE                              COMMAND               CREATED            STATUS            PORTS                                       NAMES
701911ca0a35  docker.io/jpillora/dnsmasq:latest  webproc --config ...  About an hour ago  Up 9 seconds ago  0.0.0.0:53->53/udp, 0.0.0.0:5380->8080/tcp  dnsmasq_dns_1

So far so good, the command line I added above, with or without the same result.

  1. Attempt to generate smstemd scripts tried -

Have you tested with the latest version of Podman and have you checked the Podman Troubleshooting Guide? (https://github.com/containers/podman/blob/main/troubleshooting.md)

Yes - at least the latest upsrtream version available on debian 11 (backports enabled).

Additional environment details (AWS, VirtualBox, physical, etc.):

Running bare metal, from root user account - same containers run fine in docker, I'm migrating to podman but would like to use compose for the container definintions, auto-start doesnt seem to be supported which is fine, systemd feels like a good approach,, however I'm not having any joy getting running with this - apolgies if this is a noob problem but I'm struggling to find the root cause of this.

As documented the --new option is not usable for contianers that are not created via podmanrun/create, see https://github.com/containers/podman/blob/main/docs/source/markdown/podman-generate-systemd.1.md#--new

Note to self RTFD... many thanks - confirmed indeed --new is the issue...

Thanks for pointing us in the right direction. It is obvious on reflection but transitioning from docker / docker-compose this wasn't particularly clear - since the concept of a create command is very much abstracted...

Theoretically this should be possible once the podman container clone work from @cdoern is merged, but it would require some additional work on our end to wire the two together.

Can you elaborate on that? How would we find a reverse mapping from a container to the CLI options/flags it has been created with.

If you look at what Charlie has done there - I think we're very close. It gets us to a Specgen, which is basically a parsed CLI.

We'd need extra plumbing (a CLI way of creating a container directly from a Specgen - podman run but with all input defined by a JSON file, not CLI flags), but this would not be hard.

Im just running with docker-compose hooked into podmans rest service via DOCKER_HOST variable. Essentially as docker compose must ultimately define a command to bring the container up I'd assume that this could / should be transposed somehow - this does all sound interesting and I'm happy to help where I can if needed - it would be great to be able to sync the systemctl command to the compose structure when using that as a basis for your container spec.

i'd be really interested in looking into a way to get all the way back to CLI options... could be helpful for many scenarios.

That would indeed be great. I am still a worried how robust it would be though. Would for instance run --pull=never be supported?

mheon commented Feb 21, 2022

We'd potentially need to extend it to support this, but we have a mechanism for this (use annotations to store configuration settings like --pull, --rm that aren't in the Specgen itself- we use this for podman inspect).

Or, alternatively, we just add these fields into Specgen itself - no real reason we can't have them there.
