}Extracting the list of container registries with a Go template
If shell completion is enabled, type podman info --format={{. and then press [TAB] twice.
$ podman info --format={{.
{{.Host. {{.Plugins. {{.Registries}} {{.Store. {{.Version.Press R [TAB] [ENTER] to print the registries information.
$ podman info -f {{.Registries}}
map[search:[registry.fedoraproject.org registry.access.redhat.com docker.io quay.io]]
$The output still contains a map and an array. The map value can be extracted with
$ podman info -f '{{index .Registries "search"}}'
[registry.fedoraproject.org registry.access.redhat.com docker.io quay.io]The array can be printed as one entry per line
$ podman info -f '{{range index .Registries "search"}}{{.}}\n{{end}}'
registry.fedoraproject.org
registry.access.redhat.com
docker.io
quay.ioExtracting the list of container registries from JSON with jq
The command-line JSON processor jq can be used to extract the list of container registries.
$ podman info -f json | jq '.registries["search"]' [ "registry.fedoraproject.org", "registry.access.redhat.com", "docker.io", "quay.io" ]
The array can be printed as one entry per line
$ podman info -f json | jq -r '.registries["search"] | .[]' registry.fedoraproject.org registry.access.redhat.com docker.io quay.io
Note, the Go template struct fields start with upper case. When running podman info or podman info --format=json, the same names start with lower case.
