Create podman login module about ansible-podman-collections HOT 5 CLOSED

containers.podman.podman_image supports username and password.

isn't this sufficient?

Probably for most of cases, but I'd like to have it separate as well for one time login for the whole session.

@sshnaidm hi, Sergey.

No, that is not enough, since there is an ongoing community process of migration to podman.

Consider this:

1. Company has a role that performs initial setup (including docker login)
2. Company also has hundreds of roles for different containers, image pushes, whatever else.

Now, with your approach that's potentially hundreds upon hundreds lines of code in hundreds of files to add credentials to which is a) cumbersome, b) clutter. Even more so, that basically requires keeping 2 versions of every role with such tasks: one is for RHEL7 and one for RHEL8 (yeah, there's this whole RHEL switching to podman business too!)

With a login module that's 5 LOC of change in one file.
