Enter the cli with:
bin/cassandra-cli --host localhost Then execute the commands to create the keyspaces and column families you need: create keyspace Twitter with placement_strategy = 'org.apache.cassandra.locator.LocalStrategy' AND strategy_options = [{replication_factor:1}]; use Twitter; create column family Users with comparator = 'UTF8Type'; create column family UserAudits with comparator = 'UTF8Type'; See the DataStax documentation for more info: http://www.datastax.com/docs/0.8/cli/using_cli Robert Jackson ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jeremy Hanna" <jeremy.hanna1...@gmail.com> To: user@cassandra.apache.org Sent: Friday, June 3, 2011 12:17:06 PM Subject: Re: Loading Keyspace from YAML in 0.8 In 0.8 (and 0.7) you can have a script that you create that you can run on the CLI that creates your schema. We create something like a ddl file and run it on a new cluster. You just pass it to the cli with -f <file.txt>.
