I'm trying to write a little python script to manage our cassandra cluster.
it uses output from nodetool, for example to find the current token assignment, node status etc. I could do this by parsing output from "nodetool ring" command. but is there a more "native way" , for example through some REST API or python API, so that I avoid the possible changes in formatting of the output? I checked pycassa, it doesn't seem to have an API for the JMX services Thanks Yang
