Saulius Menkevicius commented on CASSANDRA-3010:
------------------------------------------------
Another argument for non-python cqlsh is that cqlsh given from datastax
wouldn't even start on windows due to the "readline" pypi package not being
available for windows.
D:\python-ve\Scripts>cqlsh.bat
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "cqlsh", line 24, in <module>
import readline
ImportError: No module named readline
D:\python-ve\Scripts>pip install readline
Downloading/unpacking readline
Downloading readline-6.2.1.tar.gz (2.3Mb): 2.3Mb downloaded
Running setup.py egg_info for package readline
error: this module is not meant to work on Windows
Complete output from command python setup.py egg_info:

> Key: CASSANDRA-3010
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-3010
> Project: Cassandra
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: Tools
> Reporter: Jonathan Ellis
> Assignee: Pavel Yaskevich
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: 1.0
>
>
> We need a "real" CQL shell that:
> - does not require installing additional environments
> - includes "show keyspaces" and other introspection tools
> - does not break existing cli scripts
> I.e., it needs to be java, but it should be a new tool instead of replacing
> the existing cli.
