bc48211924 Fix long option format on docs.podman.io
Escape the two dashes, otherwise they are combined into one long dash.
I tested that this change is safe and still renders correctly on github
and with the man pages.

This commit also contains a small change to make it build locally.
Assuming you have the dependencies installed you can do:
```
cd docs
make html
```
Preview the html files in docs/build/html with
`python -m http.server 8000 --directory build/html`.

Fixes containers/podman.io#373

748826fc88 Add RequiresMountsFor= to systemd generate
It is rare but possible that storage locations for the graphroot and the
runroot are not mounted at boot time, and therefore might race when
doing container operations.  An example we've seen in the wild is that a
slow tmpfs mount for the runroot would suddenly mount over /run, causing
the container to lose all currently-running data, requiring a system
refresh to get it back.

This patch adds RequiresMountsFor= to the systemd.unit header to ensure
the paths for both the graphroot and runroot are mounted prior to
starting any generated unit files.

52a8694705 Add anchors for flag names on docs.podman.io
Change the docs markdown so that flag names will be h4 headers.
Sphinx will automatically add anchors to headers. Add css to
make sure the flag names are not to big compared to the text.

The man pages also still renders fine but it looks a bit different.

systemd generator: force run container detached if CreateCommand has no detach param
2020-03-16 14:40:02 +01:00
194723f314 force run container detached if container CreateCommand missing the detach param
the podman generated systemd service file has `Type=forking` service,
so the command after `ExecStart=` should not run in front.
if someone created a container and has the detach(`-d`) param missing
like this
```
podman create --name ngxdemo -P nginxdemos/hello
```
and generate the file with `--new` param:
```
podman generate systemd --name --new ngxdemo
```
because `podman run xxx` has no `-d` param,
so the container is not run in background and nerver exit.
and systemd will fail to start the service:
```
sudo systemctl start container-ngxdemo.service
Job for container-ngxdemo.service failed because a timeout was exceeded.
See "systemctl status container-ngxdemo.service" and "journalctl -xe" for details.
```

220f9a71e4 generate systemd: add default.target to INSTALL
When enabling a systemd service we can specify which target will start
it by specifying it in the `[INSTALL]` section.  In case of root, this
is commonly set to `multi-user.target` which is used to start other
essential system services such as the network manager, D-BUS and more.

However, the `multi-user.target` is not enough on all systems,
especially when running rootless and enabling user services.  Multiple
users have reported issues that there isn't even an attempt to start the
service.

Setting the INSTALL target to `default.target` will fix the rootless
case.  However, `default.target` may vary among systems.  Fedora
Workstation, for instance, sets the `default.target` to the graphical
target (i.e., runlevel 5) while Fedora Server sets it to
`multi-user.target` which is on runlevel 2 and hence way earlier in the
startup sequence.

As INSTALL allows for specifying multiple INSTALL targets, we can set it
to `multi-user.target` to continue supporting existing workloads AND to
`default.target` which MAY redundantly attempt to start it at a later point;
effectively a NOP for the root case and essential for rootless.

816e50ba02 podman-generate-systemd --new
Add a --new flag to podman-generate-systemd to create a new container
via podman-run instead of starting an existing container.

Creating a new container presents the challenge to find a reverse
mapping from a container to the CLI flags it can be created with.  We
are doing this via `(Container).Config.CreateCommand` field, which
includes a copy of the process' command from procFS at creating time.
This field may not be useful when the container was not created via the
Podman CLI (e.g., via a Python script).  Hence, we do not guarantee the
correctness of the generated files.
