Jonathan Ellis commented on CASSANDRA-1162:
-------------------------------------------
This is what we were trying to avoid by having it in contrib/ :)
(Adding jars to lib/ makes it harder to package Cassandra with Linux
distributions.)
PIG-1334 is open to add jars to maven repositories, which would make this
easier... I have no idea what the time frame is on that but if it's any time
soon I'm definitely in the "let's just wait for that" camp.
> Put the pig loadfunc for Cassandra into core
> --------------------------------------------

> Key: CASSANDRA-1162
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-1162
> Project: Cassandra
> Issue Type: Task
> Components: Core
> Reporter: Jeremy Hanna
> Assignee: Jeremy Hanna
> Priority: Minor

> Currently the Pig loadfunc for Cassandra lives in a contrib module.
> Currently it also doesn't work properly in all cases so it would need some
> fixing there too. For example, I haven't gotten it to work standalone with
> just pig. It seems to work better against a hadoop cluster.
> The other question for putting it into core is whether we keep an example of
> it's usage in contrib - kind of like what we're doing with WordCount - only
> for pig - the reason being is that you need at least Pig somewhere for the
> CassandraStore (the loadfunc) to actually be useful. Seems very similar to
> the WordCount case though - and it can be more stable with CassandraStore
> being built with core (hopefully).
