Todd Blose commented on CASSANDRA-1000: --------------------------------------- Patch attached. Summary: - new shell script in bin to initiate the conversion: config-converter - new Converter class in org.apache.cassandra.config. It locates the old config using the classpath (looks for both cassandra.xml and storage-conf.xml), uses XmlUtils to extract the old values, and finally generates the new config to where the previous config resided (with the obvious name change). > Create migratory script to generate new YAML config from cassandra.xml > ---------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: CASSANDRA-1000 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-1000 > Project: Cassandra > Issue Type: Task > Components: Core > Reporter: Todd Blose > Assignee: Todd Blose > Attachments: CASSANDRA-1000.patch > > > This is to ensure existing users will have no issues making the transition to > YAML (CASSANDRA-990). > The easiest way of accomplishing this to me would involve a single perl > script that takes as input the original XML config. The config would then be > handled by an XML parser to extract the values contained in it. After that > phase, the data would then be serialized to YAML and dumped into the new > document, according to the schema outlined in CASSANDRA-990. Therefore, > migrating to the new configuration would involve nothing more than calling > the script with the original configuration file as input. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
