If you have ever used opensuse , you will how much opensuse cares about the holiness of sudo.. want to print a paper? sure but you need sudo access. want to connect to wifi , oh you about you do it with sudo.? | |
if dont believe me its true, might have a look at a classic rant by father of Linux , Linus Torvalds who literally goes NSFW on opensuse and its shitty policy mechanism on `sudo`. Check here what Linus said : https://plus.google.com/+LinusTorvalds/posts/1vyfmNCYpi5 | |
anyways, if you wana run docker without sudo, normal recommended way as by docker docs, is to do following: | |
$ sudo usermod -aG docker <username> | |
where <username> is the user currently logged in to system. | |
so for the mighty highness of opensuse, where everything seems to have shitty grip of reality , here is complete step by step procedure to run docker without sudo : | |
$ export PATH+=:/usr/sbin | |
$ sudo usermod -aG docker <username> | |
$ sudo chown <username> /var/run/docker.sock | |
and thats it... | |
please opensuse, if we are the user of your OS, please let us enjoy the ''privileges' of going sudo while we can ;) | |
cheers:) |
