You're right, it's a bug I have created an issue here to fix it here: https://github.com/doanduyhai/Achilles/issues/240
Fortunately you can use the query API right now to insert the static columns: PreparedStatement ps = .... INSERT INTO .... BoundStatement bs = ps.bind(...) manager.query().nativeQuery(bs).execute(); Optionally you can also use update DSL to set those static values: manager .dsl() .updateStatic() .fromBaseTable() .managet_Set("rahul") .location_Set("india) .where() .teamname_Eq("raman") .execute(); On Thu, Mar 3, 2016 at 9:02 AM, Raman Gugnani <raman.gugn...@snapdeal.com> wrote: > Hi > > I am to trying to insert data into cassandra using achilles which contains > only partition key and static columns(all other columns and clustering key > are null), but getting error > > info.archinnov.achilles.exception.AchillesException: Field 'membername' > in entity of type 'com.xxx.domain.cassandra.entity.TeamMember' should not > be null because it is a clustering column > > > I am trying below insert through achilles > > TeamMember teamMember = new TeamMember(); > teamMember.setTeamname("raman"); > teamMember.setManager("rahul"); > teamMember.setLocation("india"); > > > manager.crud().insert(teamMember).withInsertStrategy(InsertStrategy.NOT_NULL_FIELDS).execute(); > > > > But as per the refrence link it is possible to insert static columns only > with partition key. > > reference link : > https://blogs.infosupport.com/static-columns-in-cassandra-and-their-benefits/ > > CREATE TABLE teammember_by_team ( > teamname text, > manager text static, > location text static, > membername text, > nationality text, > position text, > PRIMARY KEY ((teamname), membername) > ); > > INSERT INTO teammember_by_team (teamname, manager, location) > VALUES (‘Red Bull’, ‘Christian Horner’, ‘<unknown>’); > > teamname | membername | location | manager | nationality | position > ----------+------------+----------+------------------+-------------+---------- > Red Bull | null | <unkown> | Christian Horner | null | null > > > > > > -- > Thanks & Regards > > Raman Gugnani > *Senior Software Engineer | CaMS* > M: +91 8588892293 | T: 0124-6600000 | EXT: 14255 > ASF Centre A | 2nd Floor | CA-2130 | Udyog Vihar Phase IV | > Gurgaon | Haryana | India > > *Disclaimer:* This communication is for the sole use of the addressee and > is confidential and privileged information.
