一、安装
1、安装cassandra
1.1 下载安装程序
在http://cassandra.apache.org/下载Cassandra的安装程序;
1.2 安装配置
1)解压下载后的程序apache-cassandra-0.7.3-bin.tar.gz到某个目录，如d:\cassandra；
2)修改conf目录下配置文件
A)使用记事本打开cassandra.yaml文件，修改如下参数：
data_file_directories:
- /var/lib/cassandra/data
为 - d:\cassandra\data
注意：-后面需要有空格
commitlog_directory: /var/lib/cassandra/commitlog
为：commitlog_directory: d:\cassandra\commitlog
saved_caches_directory: /var/lib/cassandra/saved_caches
为：saved_caches_directory: d:\cassandra\saved_caches
B)使用记事本打开log4j-server.properties文件，修改如下参数：
log4j.appender.R.File=/var/log/cassandra/system.log
为：log4j.appender.R.File=D:\Cassandra\logs
2、安装JRE
2.1 下载安装程序
在http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/index.html上下载jre的安装程序；
jre和jdk区别：jre只是java环境，jdk包含了开发工具和jre；
2.2 直接双击执行jre-6u25-windows-i586.exe进行安装，默认安装在C:\Program Files\Java\jre6目录即可；
3、配置环境变量
3.1 打开windows的环境变量配置窗口
鼠标右键点击我的电脑，选择属性，在弹出界面点击【高级】页签，再点击【环境变量】按钮；
3.2 配置JAVA_HOME环境变量
在“系统变量”添加JAVA_HOME，点击【系统变量】下方的【新建】按钮，输入
变量名:JAVA_HOME
变量值:C:\Program Files\Java\jre6
3.3 配置Cassandra_HOME环境变量
在“系统变量”添加Cassandra_HOME，点击【系统变量】下方的【新建】按钮，输入
变量名:Cassandra_HOME
变量值:D:\Cassandra\apache-cassandra-0.7.3
4、启动Cassandra
开始运行中敲入cmd回车打开命令窗口，敲入cd D:\Cassandra\apache-cassandra-0.7.3\bin回车，敲入d:回车，转到D:\Cassandra\apache-cassandra-0.7.3\bin目录后，直接敲入cassandra就可以启动cassandra服务了，如下：
D:\Cassandra\apache-cassandra-0.7.3\bin>cassandra

二、使用
1、连接Cassandra服务
开始运行中敲入cmd回车进入命令窗口，敲入cd D:\Cassandra\apache-cassandra-0.7.3\bin后，在敲入d:回车转到bin目录中
敲入cassandra-cli命令回车，直接敲入如下命令可以连接到本机已经启动的cassandra数据库
--cassandra默认为9160端口，注意后面需要有;结束
connect localhost/9160;
2、创建keyspace
create keyspace keyspace1;
use keyspace1;
3、创建column family
create column family Standard1 with column_type = 'Standard' and comparator = 'BytesType';
describe keyspace keyspace1;
list standard1;
drop column family standard1;
--必须指定column_type和comparator
create column family cf1 with column_type = 'Standard' and comparator = 'BytesType';
create column family cf2 with column_type = 'Standard' and comparator = 'UTF8Type' and rows_cached = 10000;
create column family Super1 with column_type=Super and comparator=BytesType;
--设置列值
set cf1['key_1']['column_1']='value_1';
set cf1['key_1']['column_2']='value_2';
set cf1['key_2']['column_1']='value_3';
set cf1['key_2']['column_2']='value_4';
--设置列值
set cf2['key_1']['column_1']='value_1';
set cf2['key_1']['column_2']='value_2';
set cf2['key_2']['column_1']='value_3';
set cf2['key_2']['column_2']='value_4';
set super1['key_1']['column_1']='value_1';
get cf2['key_2']['column_2']; --提示错误Column family Super1 may only contain SuperColumns
--取列值
get cf1['key_1'];
--计数
count cf1['key_1'];
count cf1['key_2'];
--取列值
get cf1['key_1']['column_1'];
--删除列值
del cf1['key_1']['column_1'];
list cf2[key_1:];
---二级索引的使用
1、定义：在Cassandra中，对列值(column values)的索引叫做"二级索引"，它与列簇(column families)中对key的
索引不同。二级索引允许我们对列值进行查询，并且在读取和写入的时候不会引起操作阻塞。
2、使用方法：
create keyspace demo;
use demo;
--注意大小写,索引birth_date
create column family users with comparator=UTF8Type and column_metadata=
[{column_name:full_name,validation_class:UTF8Type},
{column_name:birth_date,validation_class:LongType,index_type:KEYS}];
--插入数据：
set users[a][full_name]='a';
set users[a][birth_date]=1977;
set users[b][full_name]='b';
set users[b][birth_date]=1978;
set users[c][full_name]='c';
set users[c][birth_date]=1979;
set users[d][full_name]='d';
set users[d][birth_date]=1977;
--查询birth_date=1977的数据：
get users where birth_date=1977;
--查询结果如下：
[default@demo] get users where birth_date=1977;
-------------------
RowKey: a
=> (column=birth_date, value=1977, timestamp=1306733443578000)
=> (column=full_name, value=a, timestamp=1306733438406000)
-------------------
RowKey: d
=> (column=birth_date, value=1977, timestamp=1306733577125000)
=> (column=full_name, value=d, timestamp=1306733572687000)
2 Rows Returned.
--多个二级索引使用
set users[a][card_no]='111';
--更新列簇users设置card_no和birth_date都索引
update column family users with comparator=UTF8Type and column_metadata=
[{column_name:full_name,validation_class:UTF8Type},
{column_name:birth_date,validation_class:LongType,index_type:KEYS},
{column_name:card_no,validation_class:UTF8Type,index_type:KEYS}];
--查询证件号码为111的列
get users where card_no='111';
get users where card_no='111' and birth_date=1977;
--虽然full_name没有索引，但是也能够查出结果
get users where card_no='111' and birth_date=1977 and full_name='a';
get users where card_no='111' and full_name='a';
get users where birth_date=1977 and full_name='a';
--如果仅仅通过full_name查询则出错
get users where full_name='a';
--结果如下：
[defualt@demo] get users where full_name='a';
No indexed columns present in index clause with operator EQ
--退出
quit;
