By default, Docker runs container as root which inside of the container can pose as a security issue. You would want to run the container as an unprivileged user wherever possible. The node images (with the exception of the `onbuild` variant) provide the `node` user for such purpose. The Docker Image can than be run with the `node` user in the following way: By default, Docker runs container as root which inside of the container can pose as a security issue. You would want to run the container as an unprivileged user wherever possible. The node images provide the `node` user for such purpose. The Docker Image can than be run with the `node` user in the following way:
``` ```
-u "node" -u "node"
``` ```
When using the `onbuild` variant, add the user like so: Alternatively, the user can be activated in the `Dockerfile`:
```Dockerfile ```Dockerfile
FROM node:4.1.2-onbuild FROM node:6.10.3
# Add our user and group first to make sure their IDs get assigned consistently ...
RUN groupadd -r node && useradd -r -g node node # At the end, set the user to use when running this image
# Set the user to use when running this image
USER node USER node
``` ```
