Docker permission denied

Full error message:

docker: Got permission denied while trying to connect to the Docker daemon socket at unix:///var/run/docker.sock: Post http://%2Fvar%2Frun%2Fdocker.sock/v1.37/containers/create: dial unix /var/run/docker.sock: connect: permission denied.

Solution (this is done by the bootstrap script):

sudo usermod -a -G docker $USER

Then reboot.
