Hello,
I am testing out using ansible navigator with my own EE. I just used Rocky Linux 10 UBI for my base image and used ansible builder to get the EE.
I am having trouble finding documentation that specifies how I can pass the --user option to ansible navigator but for the container engine—which in my case is podman—and also specify the connecting user via command line all in one shot.
So far, I’ve been trying out using --container-options as an option for ansible navigator and then giving it the --user=ansible option that I want it to add to the podman execution.
I am getting an error about missing argument:
ansible-navigator run: error: argument --co/–container-options: expected at least one argument
The interesting part for me is that when I browse the navigator log, I see that it is adding the option as I expect it to and so I’m not sure if this is a bug or I am just not allowed to do this or supposed to do this.
I should mention that in my screenshot, my first attempt was using argument user=ansible to --co which I did so that the log would record what I’m trying to show and I on purpose didn’t include the double hyphens.
In my last attempt, you will see that I did include them and I got the error I’m running into. Not sure how else I’m supposed to pass it via command line. I tried with the config file for ansible navigator but it didn’t work either.
When I don’t try to use --co to try and override the container user, ansible navigator keeps trying to run container command (i.e. ansible) as root and this is not what I want.
