Connecting to unix socket inside docker container using nodejs

I have written an app which connect to an already created unix.sock file and get some data from it. But I am getting EACCES error while try to connect. Error message is given below.

{ Error: connect EACCES /home/unix.sock
    at PipeConnectWrap.afterConnect [as oncomplete] (net.js:1107:14)
  errno: 'EACCES',
  code: 'EACCES',
  syscall: 'connect',
  address: '/home/unix.sock' }

code snippet.

var socket = net.createConnection("/home/unix.sock")
          .on("connect", function() {
            console.log("Connected");
            socket.write(req1);
            socket.write(req2);
          })
          .on("data", function (data) {
            data = JSON.parse(data);
            console.log("Response from server: %s", data.response);
            // Close the connection
            socket.end();
          })
          .on('error', function(data) {
            console.log(data);
          })

Any idea about why this error occurs? I think it is because of the non root container. Is there anyway I can get rid of this error with non root container?
