This implements a "delete hook" system to trigger cascade deletion of foreign rows in Cassandra. To do so, all foreign columns (representing foreign keys) must now be queryable (which means be indexed by Cassandra).
A "delete hook" is added to a parent DAO if any other DAO has foreign rows to that DAO. Ex: APIs are parents to plugins_credentials, hence the
apis
DAO will have a delete hook on the deletion of a row, to also delete any relatedplugins_configurations
.consumer_id
field.This should be a solution to #438 and is an improved implementation of #107.
PS: I don't really like taking care of this at the application level but what choice do we have.
