NAME

       podman-mount - Mount a working container's root filesystem

SYNOPSIS

       podman mount [options] [container ...]

       podman container mount [options] [container ...]

DESCRIPTION

       Mounts the specified containers' root file system in a location which can be accessed from
       the host, and returns its location.

       Podman lists all of the currently mounted containers, including external containers,  when
       the  command  is  executed  without  any  arguments. External containers are containers in
       container/storage by tools other than Podman.  For example Buildah and CRI-O.

       Rootless mode only supports mounting VFS driver, unless Podman  is  run  within  the  user
       namespace via the podman unshare command. All other storage drivers fails to mount.

RETURN VALUE

       The location of the mounted file system.  On error an empty string and errno is returned.

OPTIONS

   --all, -a
       Mount all podman containers. (External containers are not mounted)

   --format=format
       Print the mounted containers in specified format (json).

   --latest, -l
       Instead  of providing the container name or ID, use the last created container.  Note: the
       last started container can be from other users of  Podman  on  the  host  machine.   (This
       option  is  not  available  with  the  remote  Podman  client,  including  Mac and Windows
       (excluding WSL2) machines)

   --no-trunc
       Do not truncate the output (default false).
