Answer 1

I used oddpoet/hbase-cdh5 docker image to avoid this issue.

docker run -d -p 2181:2181 -p 60000:60000 -p 60010:60010 -p 60020:60020 -p 60030:60030 -h hbase oddpoet/hbase-cdh5

fig.yml

hbase:
    image: oddpoet/hbase-cdh5
    hostname: hbase
    ports:
     - "3181:2181"
     - "60000:60000"
     - "60010:60010"
     - "60020:60020"
     - "60030:60030"

my configuration file

    conf.set("hbase.zookeeper.quorum", zkPath);
    conf.set("hbase.zookeeper.property.clientPort","2181");
    conf.set("zookeeper.znode.parent", "/hbase");

    conf.set("hbase.client.retries.number", "3");  // default 35
    conf.set("hbase.rpc.timeout", "10000");  // default 60 secs
    conf.set("hbase.rpc.shortoperation.timeout", "5000"); // default 10 secs

Try add [boot2docker IP] a3e6c240af20 instead of 127.0.0.1 because HBase Java client needs to reach your docker's host not exactly localhost to reach zookeeper (CMIIW). Not pretty sure if it will works but it works in my Windows.
