Ship podman driver in official nomad distribution #176

Open svenstaro opened 2 years ago

svenstaro commented 2 years ago

Currently nomad is distributed separately but I think with podman receiving so much support and attention lately, it would be prudent to consider shipping it in the official nomad distribution to make it less of a hassle to install and to signal official support. It's already listed in the docs along with the other official drivers so I think it would make sense.

Hi @svenstaro 👋

Thanks for opening this issue. While we understand it would make it easier to use the plugin the Podman API still changes fairly often and we still need to catch-up. Having the plugin embedded would also tie the release cycle of the projects, which is something we try to avoid until plugins mature a little more.

I will leave this open as it will be good to collect more feedback, but I just want to make sure to set the right expectations that we don't currently have a plan for this.
