Jonathan Ellis commented on CASSANDRA-3380:
-------------------------------------------
bq. my point was that once you've built out the client code to introspect
Cassandra's schema and marshal to string and back again, the curl examples stop
looking so straightforward
I don't follow -- it seems to me that it's straightforward for the same reason
that CQL is -- the schema business stays on the server. So obviously if you're
going to GET a UUID column that's going to be a bit messy with curl (or CQL)
but strings, ints, and so forth obviously have clean JSON represetations.

> Key: CASSANDRA-3380
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-3380
> Project: Cassandra
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Environment: Unix / Max OS X
> Reporter: Brian ONeill
> Attachments: trunk-3380.txt

>
> This is a native rest layer for Cassandra implementing
> AbstractCassandraDaemon.
> It uses JAX-RS fueled by Apache CXF.
> Presently it supports the following operations JSON over HTTP:
> - Create keyspace
> - Drop keyspace
> - Create column family
> - Drop column family
> - Insert row
> - Fetch row
> - Delete row
> - Insert column
> - Delete column
> - Fetch column
> The patch creates a new project in contrib/rest. You can compile the project
> using "ant", which uses ivy to pull in dependencies. To get setup, you can
> also use the pom.xml file and m2eclipse to get it into Eclipse.
> Once compiled, simpy run "bin/rest_cassandra" and follow along in the
> README.txt
