The current behavior is by design. FireCamp tries to expose the minimal number of configs. We would like to collect the requirements first before adding more configs or adding the general mechanism to allow updating custom configs. What kind of configurations do you plan to change?
The config files inside container is immutable. FireCamp loads the configs that are input at the service creation time, and overwrites the /data/conf/server.properties file before container starts. When container starts, entrypoint.sh will load the configs in /data/conf/server.properties and update kafka configs accordingly.
A simple common mechanism is to allow tuning the non-sensitive configs via the environment variables. This is not complex to support. If you could provide more details, we could consider to support it.
I would like to set auto.create.topics.enable=false
would you consider supporting this?
This is a good config to support. Will add it.
With respect to above, configuration changes. If I want edit, server.properties of kafka to change below listeners to any other IP/DNS:
listeners=PLAINTEXT://mykafka-0.abc-firecamp.com:9092 advertised.listeners=PLAINTEXT://mykafka-0.abc-firecamp.com:9092
Once, we change this if i restart the kafka and zookeeper service it again goes to default config. How to override this config? Or how to pass this parameters as environment variable to override the values while creating new service?
Changing the listeners address is not supported. The kafka container binds with the DNS name. This is how failover works. When the kafka container moves to another node, DNS will be automatically updated.
Hi,
Is there a way to customize the Kafka configuration? I tried logging into the all (3) containers and updating
/data/conf/server.properties
but that file is reset to its original content after the container is restarted when I run therestart-service
command. (and I do not understand why/how, but that's not the question).And the FireCamp documentation does not seem to mention how to change the configuration.
Kind regards, Rik
