podman-build: Create an image suppressing all output.

podman

$ podman build --quiet ${path-to-directory}

try on your machine

The command podman build --quiet ${path-to-directory} is used to build a container image with Podman, a command-line tool for managing containers.

Here is a breakdown of the different parts of the command:

podman build: This is the main command to build a container image. It uses a Dockerfile (or other supported formats) as input to define the steps and instructions for building the image.
--quiet: This option makes the build process less verbose by only displaying the final image ID when the build is successfully completed. It suppresses the display of build logs and other informational messages.
${path-to-directory}: This is the path to the directory containing the Dockerfile and any other files required for the build process. It specifies the context for the build, meaning that Podman will look for files relative to this directory when executing build instructions specified in the Dockerfile.

In summary, this command will build a container image using Podman, suppress the display of verbose build logs, and use the specified directory as the build context.
