#disable_node_auto_discovery! ⇒ Object

This is primarily helpful when the cassandra cluster is communicating internally on a different ip address than what you are using to connect. A prime example of this would be when using EC2 to host a cluster. Typically, the cluster would be communicating over the local ip addresses issued by Amazon, but any clients connecting from outside EC2 would need to use the public ip.

Return true if the column_family:key::[sub_column] path you request exists.

If passed in only a row key it will query for any columns (limiting to 1) for that row key. If a column is passed in it will query for that specific column/super column.

This method will return true or false.

Return an Cassandra::OrderedHash containing the columns specified for the given range of keys in the column_family you request.

This method is just a convenience wrapper around Cassandra#get_range_single and Cassandra#get_range_batch. If :key_size, :batch_size, or a block is passed in Cassandra#get_range_batch will be called. Otherwise Cassandra#get_range_single will be used.

The start_key and finish_key parameters are only useful for iterating of all records as is done in the Cassandra#each and Cassandra#each_key methods if you are using the RandomPartitioner.

If the table is partitioned with OrderPreservingPartitioner you may use the start_key and finish_key params to select all records with the same prefix value.

If a block is passed in we will yield the row key and columns for each record returned.

Please note that Cassandra returns a row for each row that has existed in the system since gc_grace_seconds. This is because deleted row keys are marked as deleted, but left in the system until the cluster has had resonable time to replicate the deletion. This function attempts to suppress deleted rows (actually any row returned without columns is suppressed).

Please note that when enabling the :reversed option, :start and :finish should be swapped (e.g. reversal happens before selecting the range).

  • column_family - The column_family that you are inserting into.

  • options - Valid options are:

    • :start_key - The starting value for selecting a range of keys (only useful with OPP).

    • :finish_key - The final value for selecting a range of keys (only useful with OPP).

    • :key_count - The total number of keys to return from the query. (see note regarding deleted records)

    • :batch_size - The maximum number of keys to return per query. If specified will loop until :key_count is obtained or all records have been returned.

    • :columns - A list of columns to return.

    • :count - The number of columns requested to be returned.

    • :start - The starting value for selecting a range of columns.

    • :finish - The final value for selecting a range of columns.

    • :reversed - If set to true the results will be returned in reverse order.

    • :consistency - Uses the default read consistency if none specified.

#insert(column_family, key, hash, options = {}) ⇒ Object

This is the main method used to insert rows into cassandra. If the column_family that you are inserting into is a SuperColumnFamily then the hash passed in should be a nested hash, otherwise it should be a flat hash.

This method can also be called while in batch mode. If in batch mode then we queue up the mutations (an insert in this case) and pass them to cassandra in a single batch at the end of the block.

  • column_family - The column_family that you are inserting into.

  • key - The row key to insert.

  • hash - The columns or super columns to insert.

  • options - Valid options are:

    • :timestamp - Uses the current time if none specified.

    • :consistency - Uses the default write consistency if none specified.

    • :ttl - If specified this is the number of seconds after the insert that this value will be available.

#remove(column_family, key, *columns_and_options) ⇒ Object

This method is used to delete (actually marking them as deleted with a tombstone) rows, columns, or super columns depending on the parameters passed. If only a key is passed the entire row will be marked as deleted. If a column name is passed in that column will be deleted.

This method can also be used in batch mode. If in batch mode then we queue up the mutations (a deletion in this case)

  • column_family - The column_family that you are inserting into.

  • key - The row key to insert.

  • columns - Either a single super_column or a list of columns.

  • sub_columns - The list of sub_columns to select.

  • options - Valid options are:

    • :timestamp - Uses the current time if none specified.

    • :consistency - Uses the default write consistency if none specified.

TODO: we could change this function or add another that support multi-column removal (by list or predicate)
