-------------------------------------

             Summary: desc table output shows key-only index ambiguously
                 Key: CASSANDRA-8154
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-8154
             Project: Cassandra
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Russ Hatch
            Priority: Minor


When creating a secondary index on a map type, for keys, the DESC TABLE output 
does not create correct DDL (it omits the keys part). So if someone uses 
describe to recreate a schema they could end up with a values index instead of 
a keys index.

First, create a table and add an index:
{noformat}
CREATE TABLE test.foo (
    id1 text,
    id2 text,
    categories map<text, text>,
    PRIMARY KEY (id1, id2));

create index on foo(keys(categories));|
{noformat}
Now DESC TABLE and you'll see the incomplete index DDL:
{noformat}
CREATE TABLE test.foo (
    id1 text,
    id2 text,
    categories map<text, text>,
    PRIMARY KEY (id1, id2)
) WITH CLUSTERING ORDER BY (id2 ASC)
.......................snip..............................................
CREATE INDEX foo_categories_idx ON test.foo (categories);
{noformat}
