How to use sudo inside a docker container?
Normally, docker containers are run using the user root . I'd like to use a different user, which is no problem using docker's USER directive. But this user should be able to use sudo inside the container. This command is missing.
Here's a simple Dockerfile for this purpose:
FROM ubuntu:12.04
RUN useradd docker && echo "docker:docker" | chpasswd
RUN mkdir -p /home/docker && chown -R docker:docker /home/docker
USER docker
CMD /bin/bash
Running this container, I get logged in with user 'docker'. When I try to use sudo, the command isn't found. So I tried to install the sudo package inside my Dockerfile using
RUN apt-get install sudo
This results in Unable to locate package sudo
Just got it. As regan pointed out, I had to add the user to the sudoers group. But the main reason was I'd forgotten to update the repositories cache, so apt-get couldn't find the sudo package. It's working now. Here's the completed code:
FROM ubuntu:12.04
RUN apt-get update &&
apt-get -y install sudo
RUN useradd -m docker && echo "docker:docker" | chpasswd && adduser docker sudo
USER docker
CMD /bin/bash
The other answers didn't work for me. I kept searching and found a blog post that covered how a team was running non-root inside of a docker container.
Here's the TL;DR version:
RUN apt-get update
RUN apt-get install sudo
RUN adduser --disabled-password --gecos '' docker
RUN adduser docker sudo
RUN echo '%sudo ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD:ALL' >> /etc/sudoers
USER docker
# this is where I was running into problems with the other approaches
RUN sudo apt-get update
I was using FROM node:9.3 for this, but I suspect that other similar container bases would work as well.
当容器中既没有sudo也没有apt-get时，您也可以使用命令以root用户身份跳转到正在运行的容器
docker exec -u root -t -i container_id /bin/bash
