Podman run log-driver option

[jd-daniels]

I can't seem to find a way to pass --log-driver to the podman-compose call to podman via podman up. Is this supported?

From podman-run man page:

--log-driver="driver"
Logging driver for the container. Currently available options are k8s-file, journald, and none, with json-file aliased to k8s-file for scripting compatibility.

Thanks!

I guess this can be solved with this proposal

#278

This won't quite work for log-driver because podman-compose seems to call podman pod and podman start, not just podman run, the other two don't have a log-driver option.

Example:
[]$ podman-compose --podman-args="--log-driver=journald" up -d
['podman', '--version', '']
using podman version: podman version 2.2.1
podman pod --log-driver=journald create --name=deploy --share net -p 8443:8443 -p 443:8443
Error: unknown flag: --log-driver
125

Error: error retrieving pod deploy: no pod with name or ID deploy found: no such pod
125
podman start --log-driver=journald deploy_idp_1
Error: unknown flag: --log-driver
125

Any update on this?

Use

 --podman-<COMMAND>-args

 --podman-start-args

What about respecting the logging config for services as referenced here?
There are not many options to choose from currently for the driver:

• k8s-file
• journald
• none
  Same for the dirver options:
• path
• max-size
• tag (journald only)

If you want, I could create a PR.

Something like:

    log = cnt.get('logging')
    if log is not None:
        podman_args.append(f'--log-driver={log.get("driver", "k8s-file")}')
        log_opts = log.get('options') or {}
        podman_args += [f'--log-opts={name}={value}' for name, value in log_opts.items()]

in container_to_args
