This repository is no longer maintained. The core logic has been merged into podman as of v4.0.

podman-machine-cni

This plugin collects the port information of the container and sends information to a server on the host operating system. The information is used by the server to open and close port mappings on the host. It is only meant to be used in a podman-machine virtual machine. The plugin can be enabled with the following stanza:

      {
         "type": "podman-machine",
         "capabilities": {
            "portMappings": true
         }
      },

The server in question is gvisor-tap-vsock. The plugin connects to the server via RESTful API calls on container start and stop (or die). The plugin converts the port data information into a JSON payload for the API endpoint. On container start, ports on the host are opened and mapped; on stop, they are closed.
