-------------------------------------
Summary: Allow system variables to be retrieved and set via CQL
Key: CASSANDRA-9233
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-9233
Project: Cassandra
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: Jeff Jirsa
Assignee: Jeff Jirsa
Priority: Minor
Fix For: 3.1
Other database systems allow system variables to be retrieved and set via their
query interface:
https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/set-statement.html
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.2/static/sql-set.html
Proposing the following CQL syntax for retrieving variables:
{{LIST VARIABLES;}}
Proposing the following CQL syntax for setting variables:
{{SET VARIABLE 'variable'='value' [, 'variable2' = 'value2'] ;}}
The output of {{LIST VARIABLES;}} will be a superset of the actual values that
can be set with {{SET VARIABLE}}, as not all values are safe to change after
starting the node.
