michalrmiller/docker-bookkeeper repository overview

⁠docker-bookkeeper

Docker image for Apache BookKeeper.

Uses the default /ledgers root in Zookeeper. The only change from a default Bookkeeper configuration is prefering to use the containers hostname over it's IP address. This is because Kubernetes PetSet abstraction guarantees a stable hostname between crashes.

⁠Usage

Set the environment variable to point at Zookeeper. ZOOKEEPER_ADDR=<zookeeper_address:port>

If this is your first start, make sure to call the container with the command shell metaformat -nonInteractive. This will create the necessary Zookeeper structure.

⁠Kubernetes Use

Just kubectl create -f bookkeeper.petset.yaml. This will ensure shell metaformat -nonInteractive is run as an init step.

⁠Note on Volume Provisioners

If you don't have a dynamic volume provisioner running on your Kubernetes cluster, you must remove this annotation and supply your own persistent volumes.

        annotations:
          volume.alpha.kubernetes.io/storage-class: anything
