## Installing with Podman
<details>
<summary>Rootless (Podman) local-only Open WebUI with Systemd service and auto-update</summary>
- **Important:** Consult the Docker documentation because much of the configuration and syntax is interchangeable with [Podman](https://github.com/containers/podman). See also [rootless_tutorial](https://github.com/containers/podman/blob/main/docs/tutorials/rootless_tutorial.md). This example requires the [slirp4netns](https://github.com/rootless-containers/slirp4netns) network backend to facilitate server listen and Ollama communication over localhost only.
1. Pull the latest image:
```bash
podman pull ghcr.io/open-webui/open-webui:main
```
2. Create a new container using desired configuration:
**Note:** `-p 127.0.0.1:3000:8080` ensures that we listen only on localhost, `--network slirp4netns:allow_host_loopback=true` permits the container to access Ollama when it also listens strictly on localhost. `--add-host=ollama.local:10.0.2.2 --env 'OLLAMA_API_BASE_URL=http://ollama.local:11434/api'` adds a hosts record to the container and configures open-webui to use the friendly hostname. `10.0.2.2` is the default slirp4netns address used for localhost mapping. `--env 'ANONYMIZED_TELEMETRY=False'` isn't necessary since Chroma telemetry has been disabled in the code but is included as an example.
```bash
podman create -p 127.0.0.1:3000:8080 --network slirp4netns:allow_host_loopback=true --add-host=ollama.local:10.0.2.2 --env 'OLLAMA_API_BASE_URL=http://ollama.local:11434/api' --env 'ANONYMIZED_TELEMETRY=False' -v open-webui:/app/backend/data --label io.containers.autoupdate=registry --name open-webui ghcr.io/open-webui/open-webui:main
```
4. Prepare for systemd user service:
```bash
mkdir -p ~/.config/systemd/user/
```
5. Generate user service with Podman:
```bash
podman generate systemd --new open-webui > ~/.config/systemd/user/open-webui.service
```
6. Reload systemd configuration:
```bash
systemctl --user daemon-reload
```
7. Enable and validate new service:
```bash
systemctl --user enable open-webui.service
systemctl --user start open-webui.service
systemctl --user status open-webui.service
```
8. Enable and validate Podman auto-update:
```bash
systemctl --user enable podman-auto-update.timer
systemctl --user enable podman-auto-update.service
systemctl --user status podman-auto-update.timer
```
Dry run with the following command (omit `--dry-run` to force an update):
```bash
podman auto-update --dry-run
```
