Brian ONeill commented on CASSANDRA-3380:
-----------------------------------------
OK -- setup a project on Apache Extras:
http://code.google.com/a/apache-extras.org/p/virgil/
I made the goals of the project threefold:
- Provide a REST interface for the majority of Cassandra's functions
- Make Pig/Hadoop on Cassandra accessible via REST
- Provide a slick GUI that allows you to inspect data via a browser
I threw the GUI in there because it should be dead simple. Since I'm running a
lightweight HTTP server (Jetty) already, it should be trivial to create a
javascript GUI (built on the REST services). Many of us have used
cassandra-gui, but this would eliminate the need to deploy that separately.
I'm going to reach out to those guys to see if they want to work together.

> 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
