Podman Quadlets: A better docker vpn?

Sat, 27 Dec 2025 09:48:35 -0500

If you need to run a docker container (or multiple) and restrict it to a specific vpn, gluetun seems to be the de-facto way to do it. And it works great, for that specific container. But it gets a bit messy when you want to have other containers route their traffic through it, especially if you’re running this as a lightweight container in proxmox.

I recently stumbled upon podman pods and quadlets, and it felt like these might be a better way to do it? For my use case, I’m using an unprivileged LXC container running in proxmox, but this should apply anywhere.

I recently set up dokku to host a handful of self-hosted and personal apps. Fast-forward a few months and I can’t remember how to deploy a new app with my setup 😂

For my future self, I’m going to document here how to deploy mealie, which at the time of writing suggests the following docker compose file. This can be adapted for anything that can be deployed with a single Dockerfile.
