CORE-1557: ci: build the e2e Spark image from the official apache/spark image - #2384
Merged
EladBarkay merged 13 commits intoOct 7, 2026
Conversation
The Spark e2e Dockerfile downloaded the ~300MB Spark tarball from archive.apache.org on every run, which took 40-70 minutes. Past the 1h mark the AWS OIDC credentials expire, so send-report failed with ExpiredToken. Build on the official apache/spark image and fetch only the Delta and Postgres JDBC jars from Maven Central. The spark target stays on Spark 3.3.2 + Delta 2.2.0: Spark 3.5's thrift server breaks Elementary's DDL via PyHive (CORE-1558). Add a spark4 target (Spark 4.2 + Delta 4.4), which also covers Spark 4's ANSI mode default. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

apache/spark:v3.3.2 ships JDK 11.0.16, whose container detection fails on the cgroup v2 GitHub runners, so Spark crashes on startup with InstanceNotFoundException: java.nio:type=BufferPool,name=direct. apache/spark:3.3.3 ships JDK 11.0.20. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

entrypoint.sh waited for the host:port pairs in WAIT_FOR (the Hive metastore's Postgres) to accept connections, then ran spark-submit. The wait is redundant: docker-compose already starts spark-thrift and spark4-thrift only after spark-hive-metastore reports healthy (depends_on with condition: service_healthy, backed by pg_isready), so the loop always succeeded on its first try. Without the loop the script was only `exec spark-submit "$@"`, which ENTRYPOINT ["spark-submit"] does directly: the exec form passes the container arguments through and runs spark-submit as PID 1. Also drop the WAIT_FOR variable, which nothing reads now. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com> Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_019akn5nGXcW5MA7BcVvxyo6
- Download the Delta and Postgres JDBC jars with ADD <url> instead of a separate Alpine stage with a shell script. The Dockerfile is a single stage again, and the Delta artifact name (delta-core_2.12 or delta-spark_2.13, renamed in Delta 3.0) is a build arg instead of being derived from the version. - Drop the Delta Kernel and jackson-datatype-jdk8 jars from the Spark 4 image. Plain Delta tables on a Hive metastore never load Kernel: the Spark 4 e2e gives the same results without them (dbt test PASS=32 WARN=1 ERROR=60, no class loading errors). - Use symbolic --chmod (a+r) for readability. Files ADDed from a URL are 600, so the jars need it. - Health-check Spark with a beeline `select 1` instead of an open port, so the service is only healthy once the thrift server answers queries. beeline ships with the official images, takes 0-2s and exits non-zero when the server is unreachable. - Replace the Spark-only container log dump with one step that prints the logs of all warehouse containers when a start step fails. - Put the spark|spark4 adapter case on one line like the other entries.

The Spark seeder executes
CREATE TABLE ... USING delta, and the Spark configuration enablesDeltaCatalog. The Delta Spark 4.4.1 jar directly references Kernel classes in its DDL and read paths. Its POM declares the three Kernel artifacts as runtime dependencies, but this Dockerfile downloads onlydelta-sparkanddelta-storage.Seed loading can therefore fail with missing Kernel classes and raise

On CodeRabbit's Major note (add the Delta Kernel jars for Delta 4): Delta 4.4.1 works without them here.
So for this setup (Delta tables on a Hive metastore), Kernel isn't loaded, and the jars stay out. |
It was there for symbolic `--chmod` (a+r), which needs Dockerfile syntax 1.14. The GitHub Ubuntu 24.04 runners have Docker 28.0.4, which ships BuildKit 0.20 with the 1.14 frontend built in, so the directive is not needed. Verified by building without it on BuildKit v0.20.0.

…-at-build-time-add-spark-4
On a fresh volume, the postgres entrypoint first runs a temporary, socket-only server while it creates the database, then restarts. pg_isready over the socket can pass during that window. The removed entrypoint wait loop checked TCP, so Spark now relies on this healthcheck: check 127.0.0.1 and the metastore database.
