Non-root access

Run the Cellar CLI without sudo via the cellar group

The control socket is mode 0660 and owned by cellar:cellar. By default only root can talk to it; to run cellar without sudo, add your user to the cellar group (created by systemd-sysusers from contrib/systemd/cellar.sysusers).

Warning: The cellar group grants local control-plane access equivalent to root for CLI operations against the socket.

  1. Add your user to the cellar group.

    sudo usermod -aG cellar $USER
  2. Log out and log back in so that your group membership is re-evaluated. You can also activate the group in the current shell:

    newgrp cellar
  3. Verify that you can run cellar without sudo (with cellard already running):

    cellar status
