history

Project history and usage

cqlkit is a small Cassandra command-line toolkit for exporting CQL query results as JSON or CSV.

Project history

The project was created by TenMax around a narrow operational gap: Cassandra's CQL shell is useful interactively, but ad hoc export into semi-structured or structured formats is awkward.

Adoption history

Its adoption profile is modest and task-specific. The official README documents direct release downloads, Homebrew installation on macOS, and Docker execution.

How it is used

The package installs `cql2json`, `cql2csv`, `cql2cql`, and `cqlkit`. Users pass a query, file, or standard input and can reuse a cqlsh-compatible `~/.cassandra/cqlshrc` file for connection settings.

Why package nerds care

cqlkit is the kind of utility package that matters in data operations because it turns a database-specific query path into ordinary shell-friendly JSON and CSV streams.

Timeline

  • v0.1.0: Early release series added partition-key and token-range query helpers.
  • v0.3.x: Later releases kept the export-oriented CLI packaged for release downloads and Homebrew.

Related projects

  • cqlkit is adjacent to Apache Cassandra's `cqlsh`, but focuses on export workflows rather than interactive administration.
