Docker
title: [[Configuring Docker|docker]] for non root users
[[Configuring Docker|docker]] predominantly works for the root user. In order to let non-root users instruct Docker, users need to be added to the Docker group:
`sudo usermod -aG docker (username)`
Potentially, the Docker group needs to be defined:
`sudo groupadd docker`

~~~
And finally:
~~~bash
insert into user_subscriptions set uuid = UUID() , plan_name="PRO_PLAN" , ends_at = 8640000000000000, created_at = 0 , updated_at = 0,user_uuid= (select uuid from users where email="<EMAIL@ADDR>") , subscription_id=1;
