Provides a nice API for cassandra backed storage. Because I'm too lazy to write docs for something so new, here is an example: class Customer < CassandraObject::Base attribute :first_name, :type => String attribute :last_name, :type => String attribute :date_of_birth, :type => Date validate :should_be_cool key :uuid index :last_name association :invoices, :unique=>false, :inverse_of=>:customer private def should_be_cool unless ["Michael", "Anika", "Evan"].include?(first_name) errors.add(:first_name, "must be that of a cool person") end end end class Invoice < CassandraObject::Base attribute :number, :type=>Integer attribute :total, :type=>Float attribute :gst_number, :type=>String index :number, :unique=>true association :customer, :unique=>true, :inverse_of=>:invoices migrate 1 do |attrs| attrs["total"] ||= rand(2000) / 100.0 end migrate 2 do |attrs| attrs["gst_number"] = "66-666-666" end key do ActiveSupport::SecureRandom.hex(64) end end FAQ === # How do I make this work? Sorry, it's hard right now. If you can't figure it out you should ask nzkoz for help on #cassandra on freenode. You need to have a checkout of edge rails in ../rails if you want to run the tests. # Should I use this in production? Only if you're looking to help out with the development, there are a bunch of rough edges right now.
