HI Rajeeb,

Is it possible to share the problem area of you playbook?

7

I can share the scenario.
I want to create a user then I want to install a docker in that user.

Hi Rajeeb,

If i understand correctly then the darth_vader(new user) will be used to execute docker command right ?

docker can be installed with root user or sudo user. However, it can be run using non-sudo user as well. If user darth_vader belongs to non-sudo group then install the docker using sudo or root user and add user darth_vader to docker group.
