在cassandra中导入和导出模式

Question

如何从Cassandra或Cassandra cqlsh提示符下导入和导出模式？

Answer 1

To export keyspace schema:

cqlsh -e "DESC KEYSPACE user" > user_schema.cql

To export entire database schema:

cqlsh -e "DESC SCHEMA" > db_schema.cql

To import schema open terminal at 'user_schema.cql' ('db_schema.cql') location (or you can specify the full path) and open cqlsh shell. Then use the following command to import keyspace schema:

source 'user_schema.cql'

To import full database schema:

source 'db_schema.cql'

Answer 2

If using cassandra-cli, you can use the 'show schema;' command to dump the whole schema. You can restrict to a specific keyspace by running 'use keyspace ;' first.

You can store the output in a file, then import with 'cassandra-cli -f filename '.

If using cqlsh, you can use the 'describe schema' command. You can restrict to a keyspace with 'describe keyspace keyspace '.

You can save this to a file then import with 'cqlsh -f filename '.

Answer 3

For someone who comes in future, just to get ddl for schema/keyspace with "myschema" in "CassandraHost" server.

echo -e "use myschema;\nDESCRIBE KEYSPACE;\n" | cqlsh  CassandraHost > mySchema.cdl

and you can use following to import just DDL (without data):

cqlsh  CassandraNEWhost -f mySchema.cdl

Answer 4

Everything straight from the command line. No need to go into cqlsh.

Import schema (.cql file):

$ cqlsh -e "SOURCE '/path/to/schema.cql'"

Export keyspace:

$ cqlsh -e "DESCRIBE KEYSPACE somekeyspace" > /path/to/somekeyspace.cql

Export database schema:

$ cqlsh -e "DESCRIBE SCHEMA" > /path/to/schema.cql
