Before we can start we have to install Cassandra, e.g. via brew on Max OS.
brew install cassandra
pip install cassandra-driver
brew install cassandra-driver
More details can be found here: https://wiki.apache.org/cassandra/GettingStarted
/usr/local/bin/cassandra -f
/usr/local/bin/cqlsh
CREATE KEYSPACE example
WITH REPLICATION = { 'class' : 'SimpleStrategy', 'replication_factor' : 1 };
USE example;
CREATE TABLE users (
user_id int PRIMARY KEY,
uname text,
fname text,
lname text
);
That should be enough to get you started.
Now you can simply type mvn clean install to run the example.
