Scenario: Connect the Pycharm Pro flatpak docker plugin to a podman socket on the same machine.
Previously: The pycharm flatpak Docker settings include the options:
Pick a preset root docker socket
Pick a rootless docker socket
Enter a custom URL for a podman server.
Several permutations of the usual configs fail, so I configure a local podman echo server
Pycharm then says Connecting.. which is the best result I have so far.
I wonder if I have to use something called Quadlet to specify the container for Pycharm?
Or is it the other way around?
Flatpak intellij/pycharm can connect to podman using the unix socket. Using tcp doesn’t work for as far as I know. I assume that pycharm has access to xdg-run/podman, if not add it in flatseal under Other Files
Start the podman socket
Podman needs to listen on the socket for the current user.
# Will listen to a socket like docker
systemctl --user start podman.socket
# Automatically start after reboot
systemctl --user enable podman.socket
A bit late, but came across this post while searching for some things on google so probably useful to have an answer. If bumping 1 month old posts for this reason is bad, please let me know.
