1. Get Shell Access To Docker Container
While one of your docker contaier is running you might need to get shell access in order to make some chagnes like resetting password or changing file content.
Step 1
Open terminal and get list of your running docker containers
docker ps
Container ID is in this format bbe4a33f4f63
Step 2
Access the shell mode
docker exec -ti bbe4a33f4f63 sh
After you run this command you will be able to get root shell access to your container.
2. Run Docker As Non-Root User
When docker is installed it creates a user group as docker but you might have
Create a user group
sudo groupadd docker
If it exists it will give you an output
groupadd: group 'docker' already exists
Then add current user to docker group
sudo gpasswd -a $USER docker
Then logout and login to see the effect.
Run command
docker ps
Now you will be able to use docker as non-root user
