cli: allow entering binary data to columns with no metadata
-----------------------------------------------------------
Key: CASSANDRA-1603
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-1603
Project: Cassandra
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Tools
Reporter: Jonathan Ellis
Assignee: Pavel Yaskevich
Fix For: 0.7.0
CASSANDRA-1578 adds support for when we have metadata for the column in the
schema, but we should also allow manually turning a given string into a binary
format.
one option would be to allow something like
{code}
set CF[column]=timeuuid(12345678-1234-5678-1234-567812345678)
{code}
but this only allows data entry, and would not help when doing gets.
maybe adding a cli command "assume column family with ..." would be best,
allowing the operator to create local metadata that unlike "update
columnfamily" doesn't get sent to the server. (saving the local metadata
between cli sessions would be good.)
