podman-load(1) General Commands Manual podman-load(1) NAME podman-load - Load image(s) from a tar archive into container storage SYNOPSIS podman load [options] podman image load [options] DESCRIPTION podman load loads an image from either an oci-archive or a docker- archive stored on the local machine into container storage. podman load reads from stdin by default or a file if the input option is set. pod- man load is used for loading from the archive generated by podman save, that includes the image parent layers. To load the archive of con- tainer's filesystem created by podman export, use podman import. The local client further supports loading an oci-dir or a docker-dir as created with podman save (1). The quiet option suppresses the progress output when set. Note: : is a restricted character and cannot be part of the file name. podman [GLOBAL OPTIONS] podman load [GLOBAL OPTIONS] podman load [OPTIONS] OPTIONS --help, -h Print usage statement --input, -i=input Load the specified input file instead of from stdin. The file can be on the local file system or on a server (e.g., https://server.com/archive.tar). Also supports loading in compressed files. The remote client, including Mac and Windows (excluding WSL2) machines, requires the use of this option. NOTE: Use the environment variable TMPDIR to change the temporary stor- age location of container images. Podman defaults to use /var/tmp. --quiet, -q Suppress the progress output EXAMPLES Create an image from a compressed tar file, without showing progress. $ podman load --quiet -i fedora.tar.gz Create an image from the archive.tar file pulled from a URL, without showing progress. $ podman load -q -i https://server.com/archive.tar Create an image from stdin using bash redirection from a tar file. $ podman load < fedora.tar Getting image source signatures Copying blob sha256:5bef08742407efd622d243692b79ba0055383bbce12900324f75e56f589aedb0 0 B / 4.03 MB [---------------------------------------------------------------] Copying config sha256:7328f6f8b41890597575cbaadc884e7386ae0acc53b747401ebce5cf0d624560 0 B / 1.48 KB [---------------------------------------------------------------] Writing manifest to image destination Storing signatures Loaded image: registry.fedoraproject.org/fedora:latest Create an image from stdin using a pipe. $ cat fedora.tar | podman load Getting image source signatures Copying blob sha256:5bef08742407efd622d243692b79ba0055383bbce12900324f75e56f589aedb0 0 B / 4.03 MB [---------------------------------------------------------------] Copying config sha256:7328f6f8b41890597575cbaadc884e7386ae0acc53b747401ebce5cf0d624560 0 B / 1.48 KB [---------------------------------------------------------------] Writing manifest to image destination Storing signatures Loaded image: registry.fedoraproject.org/fedora:latest SEE ALSO podman(1), podman-save(1) HISTORY July 2017, Originally compiled by Urvashi Mohnani umohnani@redhat.com <mailto:umohnani@redhat.com> podman-load(1)
