Golang wrapper of the DataStax/Cassandra C++ driver

golang-driver

Golang wrapper of the DataStax/Cassandra C/C++ driver

Basic support for prepared statements and ad hoc queries. Lacking support for collections, but that will be remedied shortly.

Build

1. Build and install the DataStax C/C++ driver
2. Install go get github.com/mstump/golang-driver/cassandra
3. Run the example go run $GOPATH/src/github.com/mstump/golang-driver/examples/basic.go

Example Usage

package main

import (
	"fmt"
	"golang-driver/cassandra"
)

func main() {
	cluster := cassandra.NewCluster()
	cluster.SetContactPoints("cassandra")
	defer cluster.Finalize()

	session := cassandra.NewSession()
	defer session.Finalize()

	sessfuture := cluster.SessionConnect(session)
	sessfuture.Wait()
	defer sessfuture.Finalize()

	statement := cassandra.NewStatement("select cluster_name from system.local;", 0)
	defer statement.Finalize()

	stmtfuture := session.Execute(statement)
	stmtfuture.Wait()
	defer stmtfuture.Finalize()

	result := stmtfuture.Result()
	defer result.Finalize()

	fmt.Printf("Clusters:\r\n")
	for result.Next() {
		var clusterName string
		result.Scan(&clusterName)
		fmt.Printf("%s\n", clusterName)
	}

	fmt.Printf("DONE.\r\n")
}

golang-driver's Issues

Idiomatic Go

I noticed that there is heavy use of "Cass" in function names like NewCassCluster or NewCassStatement. Is there another cluster or statement type other than those for Cassandra in this package? If not, I think the more idiomatic way of doing this is to remove Cass from the function names. My 2 cents..
