https://github.com/zznate/cassandra-tutorial
Provides example classes for using Hector to access Apache Cassandra (0.7.0). These examples were inspired by the same questions appearing reapeatedly on: hector-users@googlegroups.com from users with a big variance in skill level.
The goals for each of these classes are:
- be completely atomic
- be as simple as possible
- have minimal dependencies
- demonstrate a specific API call with the Hector client
- sacrifice reuse and encapsulation for the sake of clarity
Each class can be directly executed via maven like so:
mvn -e exec:java -Dexec.mainClass="com.riptano.cassandra.hector.example.[class name]"
These classes assume you have an instance of Cassandra running on localhost:9160 with the default configuration. If this is one of the first times you have started Apache Cassandra, make sure you have loaded the default schema: http://wiki.apache.org/cassandra/LiveSchemaUpdates
