How do I enable materialized views in Cassandra running in a Docker container? - Stack Overflow

Please someone help me how to enable materialized view in cassandra docker image. I couldn't see any env variables available to enable it. I am having latest version (greater than 3.x) version which can run Materialized views. I tried below by adding CASSANDRA_MATERIALIZED_VIEWS_ENABLED as env which is not working

Dockercompose.yaml

  cassandra:
    image: cassandra:latest
    container_name: cassandra
    ports:
      - "9042:9042"
    environment:
      - CASSANDRA_USER=cassandra
      - CASSANDRA_PASSWORD=cassandra
      - CASSANDRA_MATERIALIZED_VIEWS_ENABLED=true
    volumes:
      - cassandra_data:/var/lib/cassandra
    healthcheck:
      test: [ "CMD", "cqlsh", "-e", "describe keyspaces" ]
      interval: 30s
      timeout: 10s
      retries: 5

Error

Cassandra detailed error SERVER_INVALID_QUERY: Materialized views are disabled.

Else guide me how better we can run the cassandra in docker with MV's enabled?

I was running into the same issue and was able to find this nice resource here to run materialized views: https://github/akka/akka-persistence-cassandra/blob/main/docker-compose.yml

The expectation is to replace the volume define for cassandra configuration in the cassandra image with your own version

 volumes:
      # This configuration is customized to enable materialized views.
      - ${PWD}/cassandra-config/cassandra.yaml:/etc/cassandra/cassandra.yaml

The github example already have configuration file there and you can take a look at it.

Only a very limited number of Cassandra configuration properties are exposed as environment variables in the Docker image:

• CASSANDRA_LISTEN_ADDRESS
• CASSANDRA_BROADCAST_ADDRESS
• CASSANDRA_LISTEN_ADDRESS
• CASSANDRA_RPC_ADDRESS
• CASSANDRA_START_RPC
• CASSANDRA_SEEDS
• CASSANDRA_BROADCAST_ADDRESS
• CASSANDRA_CLUSTER_NAME
• CASSANDRA_NUM_TOKENS
• CASSANDRA_DC
• CASSANDRA_ENDPOINT_SNITCH
• CASSANDRA_RACK

For reference, see the default cassandra/docker-entrypoint.sh on GitHub.

The materialized_views_enabled property (previously enable_materialized_views in Cassandra 4.0) is not configurable as an environment variable.

The recommended method for configuring the cassandra image is to provide a custom copy of /etc/cassandra/cassandra.yaml. The easiest way to do this is by supplying your own cassandra.yaml using a volume bind mount which will override the default copy in the Docker image.

In the Docker compose file, here's an example for specifying the location of the custom cassandra.yaml on the Docker host:

  cassandra:
    image: cassandra:latest
    ...
    volumes:
      - /path/to/custom/cassandra.yaml:/etc/cassandra/cassandra.yaml
    ...

As a side note, running cqlsh to check if the container is healthy requires too much resources particularly since you have it configured to run every 30 seconds. Cassandra is considered operational when it is listening for client connections on CQL port 9042 (default).

I recommend you replace cqlsh with a simpler test that checks if Cassandra is listening on port 9042 using Linux utilities like netstat. For example:

    healthcheck:
      test: ["CMD-SHELL", "netstat -ltn | grep -q 9042"]

This method uses very little CPU and memory, plus it has the advantage that it executes a lot faster so you'll detect an issue with the container quicker. Cheers!
