What

This directory contains the cassandra schema for every keyspace that cadence owns. The directory structure is as follows

./schema
   - keyspace1/
   - keyspace2/
        - keyspace.cql     -- Contains the keyspace definition
        - schema.cql       -- Contains the latest & greatest snapshot of the schema for the keyspace
        - versioned
             - v0.1/
             - v0.2/       -- One directory per schema version change
             - v1.0/
                - manifest.json   -- json file describing the change
                - changes.cql     -- changes in this version, only [CREATE, ALTER] commands are allowed

How

Q: How do I update existing schema ?

• Add your changes to schema.cql
• Create a new schema version directory under ./schema/keyspace/versioned/vx.x
  • Add a manifest.json
  • Add your changes in a cql file
• Update the unit test within ./tools/cassandra/updateTask_test.go TestDryrun with your version x.x
• Once you are done with these use the ./cadence-cassandra-tool to update the schema

Q: What's the format of manifest.json

Example below:

• MinCompatibleVersion is the minimum schema version that your code can handle
• SchemaUpdateCqlFiles are list of .cql files containg your create/alter commands

{
    "CurrVersion": "0.1",
    "MinCompatibleVersion": "0.1",
    "Description": "base version of schema",
    "SchemaUpdateCqlFiles": [
        "base.cql"
    ]
}
