Podman & podman-compose: add local directory as a volume

I'm trying to set up a Wordpress development environment using Podman and podman-compose.

Here's my docker-compose.yml file:

version: "3.9"

networks:
  wordpress:

services:
  wordpress:
    container_name: wordpress
    image: wordpress:php8.1-fpm-alpine
    volumes:
      - ./wordpress:/var/www/html:delegated
    environment:  
      WORDPRESS_DB_HOST: mariadb
      WORDPRESS_DB_USER: wordpress
      WORDPRESS_DB_PASSWORD: secret
      WORDPRESS_DB_NAME: wordpress
    networks:
      - wordpress

I have other services, such as Nginx and MariaDB, but for simplicity's sake I'll use only wordpress in this example.

Problem is that I'm not able to add ./wordpress directory as a volume. If I do this with docker-compose it works but with podman-composeI get no such file or directory error message. Same thing happens when I try to start the container directly with podman run command.

If I replace the local directory with named volume, then it works:

version: "3.9"

networks:
  wordpress:

volumes:
  wordpress:

services:
  wordpress:
    container_name: wordpress
    image: wordpress:php8.1-fpm-alpine
    volumes:
      - wordpress:/var/www/html:delegated
    environment:  
      WORDPRESS_DB_HOST: mariadb
      WORDPRESS_DB_USER: wordpress
      WORDPRESS_DB_PASSWORD: secret
      WORDPRESS_DB_NAME: wordpress
    networks:
      - wordpress

However, this is not a working solution in my use case. I want to create a wordpress project template that I can clone into my computer, fire up the containers, install Wordpress and start editing the files in local directory.

Is there a way of achieving this behavior using Podman?

Just drop the :delegated and use following template:

- ./wordpress:/var/www/html:rw,z

so the whole compose file would be:

version: "4"
services:
  wordpress:
    container_name: wordpress
    image: wordpress:php8.1-fpm-alpine
    volumes:
      - ./wordpress:/var/www/html:rw,z
    environment:  
      WORDPRESS_DB_HOST: mariadb
      WORDPRESS_DB_USER: wordpress
      WORDPRESS_DB_PASSWORD: secret
      WORDPRESS_DB_NAME: wordpress
    networks:
      - wordpress
networks:
  wordpress:
volumes:
  wordpress:
