Enhance describeTable to return Map of Column Family so that it can be
programatically parsed
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: CASSANDRA-258
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-258
Project: Cassandra
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: Sammy Yu
Priority: Minor
describeTable returns back a string which is too open and makes it hard for
clients to introspect the column families of the table.
The data will be returned in the following format:
{ 'Standard1': { 'desc': 'Table1.Standard1(ROW_KEY, COLUMN_MAP(COLUMN_KEY,
COLUMN_VALUE, COLUMN_TIMESTAMP))',
'flushperiod': '60',
'sort': 'Name',
'type': 'Standard'},
'Standard2': { 'desc': 'Table1.Standard2(ROW_KEY, COLUMN_MAP(COLUMN_KEY,
COLUMN_VALUE, COLUMN_TIMESTAMP))',
'flushperiod': '0',
'sort': 'Name',
'type': 'Standard'},
'StandardByTime1': { 'desc': 'Table1.StandardByTime1(ROW_KEY,
COLUMN_MAP(COLUMN_KEY, COLUMN_VALUE, COLUMN_TIMESTAMP))',
'flushperiod': '0',
'sort': 'Time',
'type': 'Standard'},
'Super1': { 'desc': 'Table1.Super1(ROW_KEY,
SUPER_COLUMN_MAP(SUPER_COLUMN_KEY, COLUMN_MAP(COLUMN_KEY, COLUMN_VALUE,
COLUMN_TIMESTAMP)))',
'flushperiod': '0',
'sort': 'Name',
'type': 'Super'}}
The CLI will also need to be updated to handle the new map that is returned
