### User Configuration Files ### User Configuration Files
The Podman configuration files for root reside in `/usr/share/containers` with overrides in `/etc/containers`. In the rootless environment they reside in `${XDG_CONFIG_HOME}/containers` (usually `~/.config/containers`) and are owned by each individual user. The main files are `containers.conf` and `storage.conf` and the user can modify these files as they wish. The Podman configuration files for root reside in `/usr/share/containers` with overrides in `/etc/containers`. In the rootless environment they reside in `${XDG_CONFIG_HOME}/containers` (usually `~/.config/containers`) and are owned by each individual user.
The default authorization file used by the `podman login` and `podman logout` commands reside in `${XDG_RUNTIME_DIR}/containers/auth.json`. The three main configuration files are [containers.conf](https://github.com/containers/common/blob/master/docs/containers.conf.5.md), [storage.conf](https://github.com/containers/storage/blob/master/docs/containers-storage.conf.5.md) and [registries.conf](https://github.com/containers/image/blob/master/docs/containers-registries.conf.5.md). The user can modify these files as they wish.
#### containers.conf
Podman reads
1. `/usr/share/containers/containers.conf`
2. `/etc/containers/containers.conf`
3. `$HOME/.config/containers/containers.conf`
if they exist in that order. Each file can override the previous for particular fields.
#### storage.conf
For `storage.conf` the order is
1. `/etc/containers/storage.conf`
2. `$HOME/.config/containers/storage.conf`
In rootless podman certain fields in `/etc/containers/storage.conf` are ignored. These fields are:
```
graphroot=""
container storage graph dir (default: "/var/lib/containers/storage")
Default directory to store all writable content created by container storage programs.
runroot=""
container storage run dir (default: "/var/run/containers/storage")
Default directory to store all temporary writable content created by container storage programs.
```
In rootless podman these fields default to
```
graphroot="$HOME/.local/share/containers/storage"
runroot="$XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/containers"
```
[$XDG_RUNTIME_DIR](https://specifications.freedesktop.org/basedir-spec/basedir-spec-latest.html#variables) defaults on most systems to `/run/user/$UID`.
#### registries
Registry configuration is read in by this order
1. `/etc/containers/registries.conf`
2. `/etc/containers/registries.d/*`
3. `HOME/.config/containers/registries.conf`
The files in the home directory should be used to configure rootless podman for personal needs. These files are not created by default. Users can copy the files from `/usr/share/containers` or `/etc/containers` and modify them.
#### Authorization files
The default authorization file used by the `podman login` and `podman logout` commands reside in `${XDG_RUNTIME_DIR}/containers/auth.json`.
