Podman support?

Netdata uses docker.sock to determine container specifications etc.

Is it possible to run it with podman without abstaining from netdata features.

Hi, @Emporea. Yes, that is possible. Netdata supports querying both docker and podman sockets.

hi @ilyam8

I am running multiple podman rootless containers, each in their own username. In the script you mention, I see the assumption is made that there is only one podman socket file, with the path assigned to variable PODMAN_HOST

Is there any chance you can walk through all readable /run/user/*/podman/podman.socket (the default path for user rootless containers), and talk to all of them?

Surely the host machine admin would have to fire up podman api service for each user and also setup permissions for netdata to read the created user socket files.

Cheers
