Pods

A Podman desktop application

Interact with Podman using an intuitive desktop application.

Pods focuses on simplicity and good usability. The only requirement is that you have Podman installed.

⚡ Disclaimer

Pods is currently under heavy development. So be prepared for missing features and a lot of bugs.

🔌 Installation

You can grab the latest CI build from here. Then you need to unzip the archive's content and install the application with the command flatpak install pods.flatpak.

🏗️ Building from source

GNOME Builder

GNOME Builder is the environment used for developing this application. It can use Flatpak manifests to create a consistent building and running environment cross-distro. Thus, it is highly recommended you use it.

1. Download GNOME Builder.
2. In Builder, click the "Clone Repository" button at the bottom, using https://github.com/marhkb/pods.git as the URL.
3. Click the build button at the top once the project is loaded.

Meson

🙌 Help translate Pods

You can help Pods translate into your native language. If you found any typos or think you can improve a translation, you can use the Weblate platform.

💝 Acknowledgment

The library podman-api-rs provides a rust interface to the Podman API. Without this great project, Pods would probably never have come into existence.

I also wanted to thank SeaDve, from whom I took the gettext python script and whose projects like Kooha and Mousai served as inspiration for the README.

And also, a warm thank you to all the contributors and translators from Weblate.
