% podman-varlink "1"
NAME
podman-varlink - Runs the varlink backend interface
SYNOPSIS
podman varlink [options] uri
DESCRIPTION
Starts the varlink service listening on uri that allows varlink clients to interact with podman. This should generally be done with systemd. See Configuration below.
GLOBAL OPTIONS
--help, -h Print usage statement
OPTIONS
--timeout, -t
The time until the varlink session expires in milliseconds. The default is 1
second. A value of 0
means no timeout and the session will not expire.
EXAMPLES
Run the podman varlink service manually and accept the default timeout.
$ podman varlink unix:/run/podman/io.podman
Run the podman varlink service manually with a 5 second timeout.
$ podman varlink --timeout 5000 unix:/run/podman/io.podman
CONFIGURATION
Users of the podman varlink service should enable the io.podman.socket and io.podman.service. This is the preferred method for running the varlink service.
You can do this via systemctl.
$ systemctl enable --now io.podman.socket
