💅 FLAKE-CTL-PODMAN-LOAD(8) — flake-ctl podman load

okay so bestie, welcome to the section 8 girlies — this one's a command page, and honestly? it slays. it's flake-ctl podman load, and its whole personality is "load container to local registry". that's it. that's the NAME section. short, sweet, iconic 🎀

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

here's the whole shape of it, look:

USAGE:
    flake-ctl podman load --oci <OCI>

OPTIONS:
    --oci <OCI>

like, that's literally the entire vibe. one flag. one job. periodt 💅

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so what does it do? it loads the OCI image you give it into your local registry. that's the whole main character moment.

but — and this is the juicy part — if the file path you handed over can't be found, it does not just give up and cry. nope. it takes the path you gave and tries to match an image using it as the base for a glob. iykyk 👑

and if multiple images match that glob? it picks the one that comes highest in alpha numerical order and loads that. so yeah, it's doing a little sorting-and-choosing situation behind the scenes. no cap.

the whole command is based on podman load, so if you already vibe with that, you already get it. and once it's done, you can see your shiny new container with:

$ podman images

go ahead, look at her. she's beautiful 😭💖

---

🌸 OPTIONS 🌸

• --oci <OCI> — the OCI image that's gonna get loaded into your local podman registry. important though: the container you pass has to be in the OCI tar format — like the kind you get when you export containers from registries via podman export. so don't just throw anything at it, ok? it has standards 🫶

---

🔥 EXAMPLE 🔥

one example, and it eats every single time:

$ flake-ctl podman load --oci SOME.docker.tar

look at her go. absolutely flawless ✨

ngl, this is a tiny page with a tiny synopsis, but every single detail is here because that's how we do it. glob fallback: mentioned. alpha numerical tiebreak: mentioned. podman images check: mentioned. OCI tar format requirement: mentioned. nothing skipped, bestie 🧚

alright that's the whole page — and for the cute sign-off: this is FLAKE-CTL-PODMAN-LOAD(8), section 8, no version string attached, no date on the footer, just vibes and a repeated title. slay 💅🌈
