Issue Description

Container name is not correct when use RESTful API

Steps to reproduce the issue

Steps to reproduce the issue

1. Create Container with "http://libpod/containers/create"

root@podman:/home/podman/simple-demo# curl --unix-socket /tmp/podman.sock -X POST   -H "Content-Type: application/json"   -d '{
    "name": "test1",
    "Image": "swr.cn-north-4.myhuaweicloud.com/ddn-k8s/gcr.io/iguazio/alpine:3.20"    }'   http://libpod/containers/create
{"Id":"00935f1c0dff566156b28e3d0aac83d5ede7bc5068d3b4e3136460aee632709b","Warnings":[]}
root@podman:/home/podman/simple-demo# podman ps -a
CONTAINER ID  IMAGE                                                                COMMAND     CREATED        STATUS      PORTS       NAMES
00935f1c0dff  swr.cn-north-4.myhuaweicloud.com/ddn-k8s/gcr.io/iguazio/alpine:3.20  /bin/sh     4 seconds ago  Created                 fervent_jones

the name in json body is test1, but it created as random value fervent_jones

2.Create Container with "http://d/v5.0.0/libpod/containers/create"

root@podman:/home/podman/simple-demo# curl --unix-socket /tmp/podman.sock -X POST   -H "Content-Type: application/json"   -d '{
    "name": "test1",
    "Image": "swr.cn-north-4.myhuaweicloud.com/ddn-k8s/gcr.io/iguazio/alpine:3.20"    }'   http://d/v5.0.0/libpod/containers/create
{"Id":"a5aa572275e5cdbcf2f928f0adb3481bc8dd07f497c0e7d3d8dd5b64a746fd89","Warnings":[]}
root@podman:/home/podman/simple-demo# podman ps -a
CONTAINER ID  IMAGE                                                                COMMAND     CREATED        STATUS      PORTS       NAMES

the name in json body is test1

but if i use http://d/v5.0.0/libpod/containers/create, my macvlan network interface will not be correct generated when create container

podman network create \
  --driver macvlan \
  --subnet 192.168.1.0/24 \
  --gateway 192.168.1.1 \
  --ip-range 192.168.1.128/25 \
  --opt parent=ens33 \
  test_macvlan

root@podman:/home/podman/simple-demo# curl --unix-socket /tmp/podman.sock -X POST \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "name": "test1",

          }
        }
      }
    }
  }' \

There is no macvlan network.

if i use http:/libpod/containers/create, it will combine my macvlan network

When used with a Unix socket, curl removes the hostname from the URL. For example, if you call curl with the URL http://whatever/containers/create, it makes a request to the /containers/create endpoint, which is mapped to the Docker-compatible API (compat API).

However, if you run this with TCP, the request returns a 404 Not Found error because http://localhost:8080/libpod/containers/create doesn't exist without a version.

To fix this, we would need to add a non-versioned path to the entry point. But to call this entry point, you would need to use a URL such as http://d/libpod/containers/create. I am also not sure if this change would violate any compatibility requirements we need to satisfy. Furthermore, all other libpod endpoints are versioned.

@Leeable I think this issue should be closed. If you have no objections, I will close it.

this is a simple demo using TCP, but the NetworkSettings doesn't include my Macvlan NIC test_macvlan ?

[Leeable]

When used with a Unix socket, curl removes the hostname from the URL. For example, if you call curl with the URL http://whatever/containers/create, it makes a request to the /containers/create endpoint, which is mapped to the Docker-compatible API (compat API).

However, if you run this with TCP, the request returns a 404 Not Found error because http://localhost:8080/libpod/containers/create doesn't exist without a version.

To fix this, we would need to add a non-versioned path to the entry point. But to call this entry point, you would need to use a URL such as http://d/libpod/containers/create. I am also not sure if this change would violate any compatibility requirements we need to satisfy. Furthermore, all other libpod endpoints are versioned.

@Leeable I think this issue should be closed. If you have no objections, I will close it.

and this way create a random name Container, but included my test_macvlan

This is the compat API call, which takes a container name as a query parameter.

To fix this, we would need to add a non-versioned path to the entry point. But to call this entry point, you would need to use a URL such as http://d/libpod/containers/create. I am also not sure if this change would violate any compatibility requirements we need to satisfy. Furthermore, all other libpod endpoints are versioned.

The fact the the libpod endpoints require a version is intentional, in general it is strongly discouraged to call any endpoint with a version.

We don't really need tcp, you simply have to specify a NOP hostname like you did with http://d/v5.0.0/libpod/containers/create

The reason it didn't work is because you are using the payload for the docker compat endpoint against the libpod one.

for libpod you need to use the networks map to add networks to the container
