-----------------------------------------
Assignee: Pavel Yaskevich
> make cli comparator-aware
> -------------------------
>
> Key: CASSANDRA-1523
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-1523
> Project: Cassandra
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Tools
> Reporter: Jonathan Ellis
> Assignee: Pavel Yaskevich
>
> Cassandra exposes metadata about ColumnFamily definitions (in the
> describe_keyspace method), including what AbstractType comparator is being
> used for column names (and values, but those are more complicated and can
> wait for a separate ticket). We should use that to both display column names
> in a human-readable format (with AbstractType.getString) and allow taking
> input in the same format (this will require adding an AbstractType.getBytes
> method to convert the other direction).
> The result should be the ability to do something like this from the cli:
> [defa...@unknown] connect localhost/9160
> Connected to: "Test Cluster" on localhost/9160
> [defa...@unknown] create keyspace Keyspace1
> fbe30685-c596-11df-a09b-e700f669bcfc
> [defa...@unknown] use Keyspace1
> Authenticated to keyspace: Keyspace1
> [defa...@keyspace1] create column family CF2 with comparator='LongType'
> d539c227-c597-11df-a09b-e700f669bcfc
> [defa...@keyspace1] set CF2['key1']['12345'] = 'value'
> Currently, the last part fails with "A long is exactly 8 bytes," meaning it
> didn't know how to convert '12345' into a Long for the column name.
