Hey Guys,
Not sure if this functionality is available or not, if its not consider this a
feature request :).
The main summary is that rows can contain massive amounts of data, so we can
narrow
selection by family. However, if the family is large enough is there a way to
grab parts of
the family using and offset and a limit? To compound it further, what if the
column names
are dynamic.
Example
table 'foo'
family 'bar'
column '1111'
column '1112'
column '1113'
...
column '9999'
The request I would like to make is
'get', 'foo', 'somerowid' , 'bar:', {LIMIT => 10}
After discovering column name and cursing through
'get', 'foo', 'somerowid' , 'bar:', {LIMIT => 10, OFFSET => '1121'}
or maybe 'get', 'foo', 'somerowid' , 'bar:1121', {LIMIT => 10}
Other thoughts would be if its reversible or not {ORDER => -1}, but more
importantly
available to the thrift client.
