Niek Bartholomeus updated CASSANDRA-12760: ------------------------------------------ Description: I'm using Cassandra to store data coming from Spark and intended for being consumed by a javascript front end. To avoid unnecessary field name mappings I have decided to use mixed case fields in Cassandra. I also happily leave it to Cassandra to jsonify the data (using SELECT JSON ...) so my scala/play web server can send the results from Cassandra straight through to the front end. I noticed however that all mixed case fields (that were created with quotes as Cassandra demands) end up having a double set of quotes {code} create table user(id text PRIMARY KEY, "firstName" text); insert into user(id, "firstName") values ('b', 'Bill'); select json * from user; [json] -------------------------------------- {"id": "b", "\"firstName\"": "Bill"} {code} Ideally that would be: {code} [json] -------------------------------------- {"id": "b", "firstName": "Bill"} {code} I worked around it for now by removing all "\""'s before sending the json to the front end. was: I'm using Cassandra to store data coming from Spark and intended for being consumed by a javascript front end.
