The Dockerfile in this folder can be used to build a Docker image running the latest HBase master branch in standalone mode. It does this by setting up necessary dependencies, checking out the master branch of HBase from GitHub, and then building HBase. By default, this image will start the HMaster and launch the HBase shell when run.
docker build -t hbase_docker .
to build a Docker image called hbase_docker. This may take 10 minutes or more the first time you run the command since it will create a Maven repository inside the image as well as checkout the master branch of HBase.docker run -it hbase_docker
to access an HBase shell running inside of a container created from the hbase_docker image. Alternatively, you can type docker run -it hbase_docker bash
to start a container without a running HMaster. Within this environment, HBase is built in /root/hbase-bin
.
