Unable to use sudo commands within Docker, "bash: sudo: command not found" is displayed

I have installed TensorFlow using the following command

docker run -it b.gcr.io/tensorflow/tensorflow:latest-devel 

and I need to set up TensorFlow Serving on a windows machine. I followed the instructions and while running the below-mentioned sudo command while installing TensorFlow Serving dependencies:

sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install -y \ build-essential \ curl \ git \ libfreetype6-dev \ libpng12-dev \ libzmq3-dev \ pkg-config \ python-dev \ python-numpy \ python-pip \ software-properties-common \ swig \ zip \ zlib1g-dev 

The following error is displayed:

bash: sudo: command not found

docker comes along with root it doesnt require sudo.

BTW if you want sudo in docker if you want to install sudo,

try this,

apt-get update && \ apt-get -y install sudo 

now you can use sudo along with your command in docker...

Docker images typically do not have sudo, you are already running as root by default. Try

apt-get update && apt-get install -y build-essential curl git libfreetype6-dev libpng12-dev libzmq3-dev pkg-config python-dev python-numpy python-pip software-properties-common swig zip zlib1g-d 

If you wish to not run as root, see the Docker documentation on the User command.
