# Docker image with non-root Nix
If you would like to run Nix in a container under a user other than `root`,
you can build an image with a non-root single-user installation of Nix
by specifying the `uid`, `gid`, `uname`, and `gname` arguments to `docker.nix`:
```console
$ nix build --file docker.nix \
--arg uid 1000 \
--arg gid 1000 \
--argstr uname user \
--argstr gname user \
--argstr name nix-user \
--out-link nix-user.tar.gz
$ docker load -i nix-user.tar.gz
$ docker run -ti nix-user
```
