Connecting to Kafka running under Docker

General Case

Connecting to Kafka under Docker is the same as connecting to a normal Kafka cluster. If your cluster is accessible from the network, and the advertised hosts are setup correctly, we will be able to connect to your cluster.

Kafka on Docker on Localhost

To run Kafka on Docker on Localhost properly, we recommend you use this project:
GitHub - conduktor/kafka-stack-docker-compose: docker compose files to create a fully working kafka stack
GitHub
The README should tell you how to get started.
Example
1
docker-compose -f zk-single-kafka-single.yml up
Copied!
Then, you can connect to Kafka on 127.0.0.1:9092 using Conduktor!

Method 2

We can leverage this project from lenses.io
GitHub - lensesio/fast-data-dev: Kafka Docker for development. Kafka, Zookeeper, Schema Registry, Kafka-Connect, Landoop Tools, 20+ connectors
GitHub
Please read the README file to see how to launch this properly.
For example, on Mac OS X or Windows 10 running Docker
1
docker run -p 2181:2181 -p 3030:3030 -p 8081-8083:8081-8083 -p 9581-9585:9581-9585 -p 9092:9092 -e ADV_HOST=127.0.0.1 -e RUNNING_SAMPLEDATA=1 lensesio/fast-data-dev
Copied!
Conduktor can then connect to 127.0.0.1:9092
If on Docker Toolbox:
1
docker run -p 2181:2181 -p 3030:3030 -p 8081-8083:8081-8083 -p 9581-9585:9581-9585 -p 9092:9092 -e ADV_HOST=192.168.99.100 -e RUNNING_SAMPLEDATA=1 lensesio/fast-data-dev
Copied!
Conduktor can then connect to 192.189.99.100:9092
