How to connect to hdfs from the docker container?

My goal is to read file from hdfs in airflow and do further manipulations.

After researching, I found that url I need to use is as follows:

df = pd.read_parquet('http://localhost:9870/webhdfs/v1/hadoop_files/sample_2022_01.parquet?op=OPEN'),

where localhost/172.20.80.1/computer-name.mshome.net can be interchangeably used,

9870 – namenode port,

hadoop_files/sample_2022_01.parquet – my folder and file created in the root.

I can access and read file locally in PyCharm, but I am unable to get the same result inside airflow in docker. I tried using local hdfs and hdfs hosted in docker and changing host to the host.docker.internal, but I am getting the same error.

With host.docker.internal:

    you need to use any routable address inside airflow docker container.

    if hadoop is inside docker container as well, check it ip address using docker inspect CONTAINER (doc). if hadoop is on localhost you can set network_mode: "host" (doc)

    also there is an important notice if you are on macos and have the docker desktop app which basically a virtual machine. so in this case you need some extra settings, check this, for example.

    where localhost/172.20.80.1/computer-name.mshome.net can be interchangeably used,

    They shouldn’t be interchangeable inside Docker network.

    From Airflow, you could use Docker service names, not IP addresses, and ensure the containers are in the same bridge network (not host mode, which only works on Linux). host.docker.internal isn’t correct either since you’re trying to reach another container, not your host

    https://docs.docker.com/network/bridge/

    I’d also recommend using Airflow Spark operators to actually read Parquet from HDFS, using Spark, not Pandas or WebHDFS. You can convert Spark dataframes to Pandas, if needed
