You will be able to inspect the logs. Once everything is working correctly, run the container with ``docker-compose up -d`` to run it in the background.
## Running with Podman
To avoid running with priveledged mode, podman can be used to build and run this image.
The magic for avoiding prveledged is to add `--group-add keep-groups` to the `podman run` command.
This blog post explains it well: https://www.nite07.com/en/posts/podman-group-share/
```sh
podman build . -f Dockerfile -t localhost/map-reporter
# Update the `-e DEVICE=` and `--device` lines below to match your meshcore
# usb companion usb device path.
podman run --restart=unless-stopped -d \
--device /dev/ttyUSB0:/dev/ttyUSB0 \
-e DEVICE=/dev/ttyUSB0 \
--group-add keep-groups \
--name meshcore-map-reporter \
localhost/map-reporter
```
### Persist reboots
Since podman runs in the user context, it doesn't run a daemon by default like Docker does. To have your container start at boot time, we can leverage systemd to start podman at boot.

```sh
# Use the container that we created in the previous step as a template to generate the systemd unit file.
# No changes need to be made to the unit file
podman generate systemd --new --files --name meshcore-map-reporter
mkdir -p ~/.config/systemd/user/
cp -Z container-meshcore-map-reporter.service ~/.config/systemd/user
systemctl --user daemon-reload
# Stop and remove the template container
podman stop meshcore-map-reporter
podman rm meshcore-map-reporter
# Enable and start the container via systemd
systemctl --user enable container-meshcore-map-reporter.service
systemctl --user start container-meshcore-map-reporter.service
```
### View logs
```sh
journalctl --user -efu container-meshcore-map-reporter
or
podman logs -f meshcore-map-reporter
```
### Updating
1. Build the container image with the same tag
2. Restart the systemd service: `systemctl --user restart container-meshcore-map-reporter.service`
