Throws `AuthenticationException` if the credentials are invalid or `AuthorizationException` if the credentials are valid, but not for the specified keyspace. + Authenticates with the cluster using the specified `AuthenticationRequest` credentials. Throws `AuthenticationException` if the credentials are invalid or `AuthorizationException` if the credentials are valid, but not for the specified keyspace. + + === set_keyspace === + . `void set_keyspace(string keyspace)` + + Set the keyspace to use for subsequent requests. Throws InvalidRequestException for an unknown keyspace. === get === - . `ColumnOrSuperColumn get(key, column_path, consistency_level)` + . `ColumnOrSuperColumn get(binary key, ColumnPath column_path, ConsistencyLevel consistency_level)` Get the `Column` or `SuperColumn` at the given `column_path`. If no value is present, `NotFoundException` is thrown. (This is the only method that can throw an exception under non-failure conditions.) === get_slice === - . `list<ColumnOrSuperColumn> get_slice(key, column_parent, predicate, consistency_level)` + . `list<ColumnOrSuperColumn> get_slice(binary key, ColumnParent column_parent, SlicePredicate predicate, ConsistencyLevel consistency_level)` Get the group of columns contained by `column_parent` (either a `ColumnFamily` name or a `ColumnFamily/SuperColumn` name pair) specified by the given `SlicePredicate` struct. === multiget_slice === - . `map<string,list<ColumnOrSuperColumn>> multiget_slice(keys, column_parent, predicate, consistency_level)` + . `map<string,list<ColumnOrSuperColumn>> multiget_slice(list<binary> keys, ColumnParent column_parent, SlicePredicate predicate, ConsistencyLevel consistency_level)` Retrieves slices for `column_parent` and `predicate` on each of the given keys in parallel. Keys are a `list<string> of the keys to get slices for. This is similar to `get_range_slices`, except it operates on a set of non-contiguous keys instead of a range of keys. === get_count === - . `i32 get_count(key, column_parent, predicate, consistency_level)` + . `i32 get_count(binary key, ColumnParent column_parent, SlicePredicate predicate, ConsistencyLevel consistency_level)` Counts the columns present in `column_parent` within the `predicate.` The method is not O(1). It takes all the columns from disk to calculate the answer. The only benefit of the method is that you do not need to pull all the columns over Thrift interface to count them. === multiget_count === - . `map<string, i32> multiget_count(keys, column_parent, predicate, consistency_level)` + . `map<string, i32> multiget_count(list<binary> keys, ColumnParent column_parent, SlicePredicate predicate, ConsistencyLevel consistency_level)` A combination of `multiget_slice `and` get_count.` === get_range_slices === - . `list<KeySlice> get_range_slices(column_parent, predicate, range, consistency_level)` + . `list<KeySlice> get_range_slices(ColumnParent column_parent, SlicePredicate predicate, KeyRange range, ConsistencyLevel consistency_level)` Replaces `get_range_slice`. Returns a list of slices for the keys within the specified `KeyRange`. Unlike get_key_range, this applies the given predicate to all keys in the range, not just those with undeleted matching data. Note that when using RandomPartitioner, keys are stored in the order of their MD5 hash, making it impossible to get a meaningful range of keys between two endpoints. === get_indexed_slices === - . `list<KeySlice> get_indexed_slices(column_parent, index_clause, predicate, consistency_level)` + . `list<KeySlice> get_indexed_slices(ColumnParent column_parent, IndexClause index_clause, SlicePredicate predicate, ConsistencyLevel consistency_level)` Like `get_range_slices`, returns a list of slices, but uses `IndexClause` instead of `KeyRange`. To use this method, the underlying `ColumnFamily` of the `ColumnParent` must have been configured with a column_metadata attribute, specifying at least the name and index_type attributes. See `CfDef` and `ColumnDef` above for the list of attributes. Note: the `IndexClause` must contain one `IndexExpression` with an `EQ` operator on a configured index column. Other `IndexExpression` structs may be added to the `IndexClause` for non-indexed columns to further refine the results of the `EQ` expression. === insert === - . `insert(key, column_path, column, consistency_level)` + . `insert(binary key, ColumnParent column_parent, Column column, ConsistencyLevel consistency_level)` - Insert a `Column` consisting of (`name`, `value`, `timestamp`) at the given `column_path.column_family` and optional `column_path.super_column`. Note that a !SuperColumn cannot directly contain binary values -- it can only contain sub-Columns. Only one sub-Column may be inserted at a time, as well. + Insert a `Column` consisting of (`name`, `value`, `timestamp`, `ttl`) at the given ColumnParent. Note that a !SuperColumn cannot directly contain binary values -- it can only contain sub-Columns. Only one sub-Column may be inserted at a time, as well. === batch_mutate === - . `batch_mutate(mutation_map, consistency_level)` + . `batch_mutate(map<binary, map<string, list<Mutation>>> mutation_map, ConsistencyLevel consistency_level)` Executes the specified mutations on the keyspace. `mutation_map` is a `map<string, map<string, vector<Mutation>>>`; the outer map maps the key to the inner map, which maps the column family to the `Mutation`; can be read as: `map<key : string, map<column_family : string, vector<Mutation>>>`. To be more specific, the outer map key is a row key, the inner map key is the column family name. A `Mutation` specifies either columns to insert or columns to delete. See `Mutation` and `Deletion` above for more details. + === add === + . `add(binary key, ColumnParent column_parent, CounterColumn column, ConsistencyLevel consistency_level)` + + Increments a `CounterColumn` consisting of (`name`, `value`) at the given ColumnParent. Note that a !SuperColumn cannot directly contain binary values -- it can only contain sub-Columns. + === remove === - . `remove(key, column_path, timestamp, consistency_level)` + . `remove(binary key, ColumnPath column_path, i64 timestamp, ConsistencyLevel consistency_level)` Remove data from the row specified by `key` at the granularity specified by `column_path`, and the given `timestamp`. Note that all the values in `column_path` besides `column_path.column_family` are truly optional: you can remove the entire row by just specifying the !ColumnFamily, or you can remove a !SuperColumn or a single Column by specifying those levels too. Note that the `timestamp` is needed, so that if the commands are replayed in a different order on different nodes, the same result is produced. + + === remove_counter === + . `remove_counter(binary key, ColumnPath column_path, ConsistencyLevel consistency_level)` + + Remove a counter from the row specified by `key` at the granularity specified by `column_path`. Note that all the values in `column_path` besides `column_path.column_family` are truly optional: you can remove the entire row by just specifying the !ColumnFamily, or you can remove a !SuperColumn or a single Column by specifying those levels too. Note that counters have limited support for deletes: if you remove a counter, you must wait to issue any following update until the delete has reached all the nodes and all of them have been fully compacted. === truncate === . `truncate(string column_family)` @@ -308, +402 @@ Gets the name of the cluster. + === describe_schema_versions === + . `map<string, list<string>> describe_schema_versions` + + For each schema version present in the cluster, returns a list of nodes at that version.
