> Configure via debconf when installing Debian package
> ----------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: CASSANDRA-2703
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-2703
> Project: Cassandra
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: Packaging
> Environment: Debian/Ubuntu-based systems
> Reporter: paul cannon
> Priority: Minor
>
> It would be most excellent if the cassandra Debian package could get some of
> its configuration via debconf on install. For example, "Do you want to start
> a new Cassandra cluster or join an existing one", "Enter the address(es) of
> seed(s) in the cluster you want to join", "On which interface(s) should
> cassandra listen for Thrift (RPC) connections?", etc.
> Power users would preseed the answers to these questions in debconf before
> install, so that installation could proceed without disturbance.
> To implement, I imagine we'd ship a script to generate a cassandra.yaml from
> a template and the debconf answers.
> This would remove the need for the CASSANDRA-2356 extra step in the setup
> process, and also make cassandra easier to administer and easier to try out.
