 2    <h2>K8S private gitlab registry using podman</h2>
 3    <p>
 4        This is based on <a
 5            href="https://kubernetes.io/docs/tasks/configure-pod-container/pull-image-private-registry/">Log in to
 6        Docker Hub</a>. It is just a bit different to use podman.
 7    </p>
 8    <p>
 9        First we should take a look at podman-login man page:
10<pre><code>man podman login</code></pre>
11    </p>
12    <p>
13        It will give some valueable information like the location of auth.json file. Now we can login using podman:
14<pre><code>podman login registry.gitlab.com</code></pre>
15    </p>
16    <p>Then check the <code>auth.json</code> file located at <code>${XDG_RUNTIME_DIR}/containers/auth.json</code> (as described
17        by the manual). It will contain your auth config:
18<pre><code>{
19	"auths": {
20		"registry.gitlab.com": {
21			"auth": "..."
22		}
23	}
24}</code></pre>
25    </p>
26    <p>
27        Now copy that file over to the server and register it in k8s with the following command:
28<pre><code>
29kubectl create secret generic regcred \
30    --from-file=.dockerconfigjson=auth.json \
31    --type=kubernetes.io/dockerconfigjson</code></pre>
32    </p>
33    <p>
34        Once you have created you can list by kubectl get secret:
35<pre><code>
36NAME     TYPE                                  DATA   AGE
37regcred  kubernetes.io/dockerconfigjson        1      53s</code></pre>
38    </p>
