type: str
required: true
dest:
description:
- Destination of the generated systemd unit file(s).
- Use C(/etc/systemd/system) for the system-wide systemd instance.
- Use C(/etc/systemd/user) or C(~/.config/systemd/user) for use with per-user instances of systemd.
type: path
force:
description:
- Replace the systemd unit file(s) even if it already exists.
- This works with dest option.
type: bool
default: false

type: bool
default: false

type: bool
default: true
container_prefix:
description:
- Set the systemd unit name prefix for containers.

- Refer to podman-generate-systemd(1) man page for more information.
type: str
pod_prefix:
description:
- Set the systemd unit name prefix for pods.
- If not set, use the default defined by podman, C(pod).
- Refer to podman-generate-systemd(1) man page for more information.
type: str
separator:
description:

type: bool
default: false
after:
description:
- Add the systemd unit after (C(After=)) option, that ordering dependencies between the list of dependencies and this service.
- This option may be specified more than once.
- User-defined dependencies will be appended to the generated unit file
- But any existing options such as needed or defined by default (e.g. C(online.target)) will not be removed or overridden.
- Only with Podman 4.0.0 and above
type: list
elements: str
wants:
description:
- Add the systemd unit wants (C(Wants=)) option, that this service is (weak) dependent on.
- This option may be specified more than once.
- This option does not influence the order in which services are started or stopped.
- User-defined dependencies will be appended to the generated unit file
- But any existing options such as needed or defined by default (e.g. C(online.target)) will not be removed or overridden.
- Only with Podman 4.0.0 and above
type: list
elements: str
requires:
description:
- Set the systemd unit requires (Requires=) option.
- Similar to wants, but declares a stronger requirement dependency.
- Only with Podman 4.0.0 and above
type: list
elements: str
executable:
description:
- C(Podman) executable name or full path
type: str
default: podman
requirements:
- Podman installed on target host
notes:
- If you indicate a pod, the systemd units for it and all its containers will be generated
- Create all your pods, containers and their dependencies before generating the systemd files
- If a container or pod is already started before you do a C(systemctl daemon-reload),
systemd will not see the container or pod as started
- Stop your container or pod before you do a C(systemctl daemon-reload),
then you can start them with C(systemctl start my_container.service)
