According to podman-run — Podman documentation

--replace

Not find in docker run | Docker Docs

Solution

  • There's no equivalent docker run option; the documentation you link to would show it if there was.

    It should be more or less equivalent to explicitly stop and delete the existing container

    docker stop "$CONTAINER_NAME" || true
docker rm "$CONTAINER_NAME" || true
docker run --name "$CONTAINER_NAME" ...
