podman-import(1) General Commands Manual podman-import(1) NAME podman-import - Import a tarball and save it as a filesystem image SYNOPSIS podman import [options] path [reference] podman image import [options] path [reference] DESCRIPTION podman import imports a tarball (possibly compressed using Gzip, Bzip2, XZ or Zstd) and saves it as a filesystem image. Remote tarballs can be speci- fied using a URL. Various image instructions can be configured with the --change flag and a commit message can be set using the --message flag. reference, if present, is a tag to assign to the image. podman import is used for importing from the archive generated by podman export, that in- cludes the container's filesystem. To import the archive of image layers created by podman save, use podman load. Note: : is a restricted character and cannot be part of the file name. OPTIONS --arch Set architecture of the imported image. --change, -c=instruction Apply the following possible instructions to the created image: CMD | EN- TRYPOINT | ENV | EXPOSE | LABEL | STOPSIGNAL | USER | VOLUME | WORKDIR Can be set multiple times --help, -h Print usage statement --message, -m=message Set commit message for imported image --os Set OS of the imported image. --quiet, -q Shows progress on the import --variant Set variant of the imported image.
