umohnani8 c75f4d4e70 Add --authfile to podman search
Since podman search requires credentials to search private registries,
add the --authfile flag to allow users to pass in credentials from a
different authfile than the default one.

NAME

podman-search - Search a registry for an image

SYNOPSIS

podman search TERM [--filter|-f] [--format] [--limit] [--no-trunc] [--registry] [--help|-h]

DESCRIPTION

podman search searches a registry or a list of registries for a matching image. The user can specify which registry to search by setting the --registry flag, default is the default registries set in the config file - /etc/containers/registries.conf. The number of results can be limited using the --limit flag. If more than one registry is being searched, the limit will be applied to each registry. The output can be filtered using the --filter flag.

podman [GLOBAL OPTIONS]

podman search [GLOBAL OPTIONS]

podman search [OPTIONS] TERM

OPTIONS

--authfile

Path of the authentication file. Default is ${XDG_\RUNTIME_DIR}/containers/auth.json

--filter, -f

Filter output based on conditions provided (default [])

Supported filters are:

  • stars (int - number of stars the image has)
  • is-automated (boolean - true | false) - is the image automated or not
  • is-official (boolean - true | false) - is the image official or not

--format

Change the output format to a Go template

Valid placeholders for the Go template are listed below:

Placeholder Description
.Index Registry
.Name Image name
.Descriptions Image description
.Stars Star count of image
.Official "[OK]" if image is official
.Automated "[OK]" if image is automated

--limit

Limit the number of results Note: The results from each registry will be limited to this value. Example if limit is 10 and two registries are being searched, the total number of results will be 20, 10 from each (if there are at least 10 matches in each). The order of the search results is the order in which the API endpoint returns the results.

--no-trunc

Do not truncate the output

--registry

Specific registry to search (only the given registry will be searched, not the default registries)

--tls-verify

Require HTTPS and verify certificates when contacting registries (default: true). If explicitly set to true, then tls verification will be used. If set to false then tls verification will not be used if needed. If not specified default registries will be searched through (in /etc/containers/registries.conf), and tls will be skipped if a default registry is listed in the insecure registries.
