kafka-stack-docker-compose
This replicates as well as possible real deployment configurations, where you have your zookeeper servers and kafka servers actually all distinct from each other. This solves all the networking hurdles that comes with Docker and docker-compose, and is compatible cross platform.
UPDATE: No /etc/hosts file changes are necessary anymore. Explanations at: https://rmoff.net/2018/08/02/kafka-listeners-explained/

Requirements
Docker
Please export your environment before starting the stack:
export DOCKER_HOST_IP=127.0.0.1
(that's the default value and you actually don't need to do a thing)
Docker-Toolbox
If you are using Docker for Mac <= 1.11, or Docker Toolbox for Windows
(your docker machine IP is usually 192.168.99.100)
Please export your environment before starting the stack:
export DOCKER_HOST_IP=192.168.99.100
Single Zookeeper / Single Kafka
This configuration fits most development requirements.
- Zookeeper will be available at
$DOCKER_HOST_IP:2181 - Kafka will be available at
$DOCKER_HOST_IP:9092
Run with:
docker-compose -f zk-single-kafka-single.yml up
docker-compose -f zk-single-kafka-single.yml down
Single Zookeeper / Multiple Kafka
If you want to have three brokers and experiment with kafka replication / fault-tolerance.
- Zookeeper will be available at
$DOCKER_HOST_IP:2181 - Kafka will be available at
$DOCKER_HOST_IP:9092,$DOCKER_HOST_IP:9093,$DOCKER_HOST_IP:9094
Run with:
docker-compose -f zk-single-kafka-multiple.yml up
docker-compose -f zk-single-kafka-multiple.yml down
Multiple Zookeeper / Single Kafka

FAQ
Kafka
Q: Kafka's log is too verbose, how can I reduce it?
A: Add the following line to your docker-compose environment variables: KAFKA_LOG4J_LOGGERS: "kafka.controller=INFO,kafka.producer.async.DefaultEventHandler=INFO,state.change.logger=INFO". Full logging control can be accessed here: https://github.com/confluentinc/cp-docker-images/blob/master/debian/kafka/include/etc/confluent/docker/log4j.properties.template
Q: How do I delete data to start fresh?
A: Your data is persisted from within the docker compose folder, so if you want for example to reset the data in the full-stack docker compose, first do a docker-compose -f full-stack.yml down, then remove the directory full-stack, for example by doing rm -r -f full-stack.
Q: Can I change the zookeeper ports?
A: yes. Say you want to change zoo1 port to 12181 (only relevant lines are shown):
zoo1:
ports:
- "12181:12181"
environment:
ZOO_PORT: 12181
kafka1:
environment:
KAFKA_ZOOKEEPER_CONNECT: "zoo1:12181"
Q: Can I change the Kafka ports?
A: yes. Say you want to change kafka1 port to 12345 (only relevant lines are shown). Note only LISTENER_DOCKER_EXTERNAL changes:
kafka1:
image: confluentinc/cp-kafka:5.3.1
hostname: kafka1
ports:
- "12345:12345"
environment:
KAFKA_ADVERTISED_LISTENERS: LISTENER_DOCKER_INTERNAL://kafka1:19092,LISTENER_DOCKER_EXTERNAL://${DOCKER_HOST_IP:-127.0.0.1}:12345
