Simplified classes to write SSTables (for bulk loading usage)
-------------------------------------------------------------
Key: CASSANDRA-2911
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-2911
Project: Cassandra
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: Core
Reporter: Sylvain Lebresne
Assignee: Sylvain Lebresne
Priority: Minor
sstableloader only stream existing sstables. If you need to load data existing
in another form (json, csv, whatnot), you need to first write the sstable(s) to
load. The recommended way to do this is either to use json2sstable or to modify
it if your input is not json. Modifying json2sstable is however more involved
than it needs to be, you'll need at least some basic understanding of a bunch
of internal classes (DecoratedKey, ColumnFamily, SuperColumn, ...). Even for
json input, you can use json2sstable only if your json actually conform to what
is expected and even then, good luck to someone that want to add counters.
This ticket proposes to add a simple interface to write sstables.
