Inserting data into cassandra using Aquiles

I got a sample code from net for inserting:

  1. In the line below, should "Cassandra1" be placed in web.config? If yes as what?

    ICluster cluster = AquilesHelper.RetrieveCluster("Cassandra1");

  2. In the code below, what is CassandraClient? Is it a class? What should be inside the CassandraClient class?

    cluster.Execute(new ExecutionBlock(delegate(CassandraClient client)
{
  client.insert(key, columnParent, column, ConsistencyLevel.ONE);
}), keyspace);
Solution

  • The answer to your first question can be found here.

    A quick read of the source code reveals this type alias in DefaultClient.cs:

    using CassandraClient = Apache.Cassandra.Cassandra.Client;

    So CassandraClient is an instance of Apache.Cassandra.Cassandra.Client, which is the client generated by the Thrift C# code generator.
