Question: How to specify arguments when starting generic container

What are you trying to do?

How can I specify argument such as --privileged or --user when starting a container?

Where are you trying to do it?

I am trying to run a container with these options:

podman run -it --privileged --user 0 --rm -p 8181:80 --entrypoint /sbin/init -d registry.access.redhat.com/ubi8/ubi-init /sbin/init

I am using the DockerContainer example and I would like to add the above arguments to this:

from testcontainers.core.container import DockerContainer
from testcontainers.core.waiting_utils import wait_for_logs

with DockerContainer("hello-world") as container:

   delay = wait_for_logs(container, "Hello Podman World")

Runtime environment

I am using OpenShift DevSpaces with podman and kubedock.

Bắt đầu với ví dụ DockerContainer trong issue và xác định entry point của nó trong package testcontainers Python. Kiểm tra cấu hình khởi động container hiện có và tài liệu để xác định các tùy chọn runtime được yêu cầu thuộc về đâu; hoàn thành khi có thể chỉ định các tùy chọn cho lời gọi dựa trên Podman được minh họa.
