----------------------------------------
Summary: Make cqlsh prompt for a password if the user doesn't
enter one
Key: CASSANDRA-6902
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-6902
Project: Cassandra
Issue Type: New Feature
Reporter: J.B. Langston
Priority: Minor
If the user specifies -u username and leaves off -p password, cqlsh should
prompt for a password without echoing it to the screen instead of throwing an
exception, which it currently does. I know that you can put a username and
password in the .cqlshrc file but if a user wants to log in with multiple
accounts and not have the password visible on the screen, there's no way to
currently do that. This feature has been requested by a customer.
