---------------------------------------------------
Summary: Add support for ALTER INDEX command
Key: CASSANDRA-11306
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-11306
Project: Cassandra
Issue Type: Wish
Components: Core, CQL
Environment: Cassandra 2.2+
Reporter: Jacques-Henri Berthemet
Cassandra supports passing options to a (custom) secondary index at creation
time:
https://docs.datastax.com/en/cql/3.1/cql/cql_reference/create_index_r.html
{code}
CREATE CUSTOM INDEX ON users (email) USING 'path.to.the.IndexClass' WITH
OPTIONS = {'storage': '/mnt/ssd/indexes/'};
{code}
However it is not possible to update the options for an existing index.
It would be great to have an ALTER INDEX command similar to the ALTER TABLE
command. Custom index implementation would receive the command and act
accordingly.
