Unable to setup feast

Summary

Hi, I am trying to set up Feast on a kubernetes cluster by following the instructions on https://github.com/feast-dev/feast/blob/master/infra/charts/feast/README.md. I have added a secret for the postgres pasword, but when I run helm test test-release it fails.

I have also tried to test by following the example on https://github.com/feast-dev/feast/blob/master/examples/basic/basic.ipynb. Here it stops at the ingestion part. I stays at 0% for 20 min before I get and error message

  File "/home/autilibrain/anaconda3/lib/python3.7/site-packages/feast/client.py", line 790, in ingest
    producer.print_results()
  File "/home/autilibrain/anaconda3/lib/python3.7/site-packages/feast/loaders/abstract_producer.py", line 74, in print_results
    else f"\nLast exception:\n{self.last_exception}"
TypeError: Type cimpl.KafkaError doesn't define __format__`

@woop are you referring to

https://github.com/feast-dev/feast/blob/7f9aa0c161cdcde1f5bcea450beeeb1ab55aa7d6/infra/charts/feast/values-batch-serving.yaml#L31-L32

?

Yes, thats right.

Thanks for the discussion above, this helped me to get through the same redis auth problem. (I know it’s not supported but I’m testing via helm v3 using docker-desktop k8s.)

I copied values.yaml locally and changed https://github.com/feast-dev/feast/blob/7f9aa0c161cdcde1f5bcea450beeeb1ab55aa7d6/infra/charts/feast/values.yaml#L25-L27 to

redis:
  # redis.enabled -- Flag to install Redis
  enabled: true
  usePassword: false

and installed with

# assumes feast-postgresql secret has been created
helm install dev feast-charts/feast --set feast-core.postgresql.existingSecret=feast-postgresql --set postgresql.existingSecret=feast-postgresql -f values.yaml

I’ve just updated the guide to remove Redis authentication
