Access MacOS host from a podman container¶

Reference:

• Access MacOS host from a docker container
• How Podman can extract a container’s external IP address
• https://github.com/containers/podman/issues/10878

Simply use host.containers.internal as a reference to external IP address.

Run the following snippets in separate terminals.

➜ podman run -it --rm busybox:1.36.0
/ # nc host.containers.internal:23456
Hello from busybox

➜ nc -l 0.0.0.0 23456
Hello from busybox
