Ivo Ladage - van Doorn updated AMDATU-253:
------------------------------------------

        Summary: Add a Cassandra client UI  (was: Add a Cassandra client gadget)
    Description: 
It would be quite useful if a gadget would be available providing a command 
line interface on the Cassandra database. Note that cassandra 0.7 does come 
with a command line interface (cassandra-cli) which connects to Cassandra nodes 
using the configured Thrift port, but this port may be blocked by a firewall.
A web UI could be useful, for examples if it supports

- Retrieve keyspaces
- Retrieve ColumnFamily definitions
- Retrieve rows from a certain columnfamily



  was:
It would be quite useful if a gadget would be available providing a command 
line interface on the Cassandra database. Note that cassandra 0.7 does come 
with a command line interface (cassandra-cli), but this client cannot be used 
with Amdatu because of an OutOfMemory error upon startup. This seems to be a 
known but 'wont't fix' issue. 
This exact issue is described on 
http://www.apacheserver.net/Cassandra-OutOfMemoryError-at1059212.htm
The answer however is a bit disappointing;

don't use raw Thrift, use one of the clients from 
http://wiki.apache.org/cassandra/ClientOptions06

The referred clients are API libraries, no command line interfaces. Besides, 
cassandra-cli is distributed among with cassandra.
A client should support at least some simple queries like;

- Retrieve keyspaces
- Retrieve ColumnFamily definitions
- Retrieve all rows from a certain columnfamily
