Cassandra 类型转换限制

原文地址:http://stackoverflow.com/questions/31880381/cassandra-alter-column-type-which-types-are-compatible
版本: Cassandra 2.2.0
2016年6月1日更新,版本3.0+

Cassandra并不像mysql一样几乎支持几乎所有的类型间转换,下面是一个支持转换的列表

ascii -> blob, text, varchar
bigint -> blob, timestamp, varint
int -> blob, varint
text -> blob, varchar
timestamp -> bigint, blob, varint
timeuuid -> blob, UUID
varchar -> blob, text

注意:
几乎所有类型都可以转换到blob
cqlsh 允许 varint 转换为 date,但是这是bug,不要尝试

alter table user alter user_name type blob;

如果你想曲线救国

我先drop 再 add 这个字段,不行

你会看到提示

InvalidRequest: code=2200 [Invalid query] message="Cannot add a collection with the name pics because a collection with the same name and a different type has already been used in the past"

这是一个bug

最新版本可以试试是否已经修复

2016年6月1日更新

3.0 alpha 1 说已经修复,下面是测试结果:

kevin@cqlsh:test> alter table user drop user_name;
kevin@cqlsh:test> alter table user add user_name int;
kevin@cqlsh:test> select * from user;

 uid | user_name
-----+-----------

(0 rows)
kevin@cqlsh:test> insert into user(uid,user_name) values(1,'kevin');
InvalidRequest: code=2200 [Invalid query] message="Invalid STRING constant (kevin) for "user_name" of type int"
kevin@cqlsh:test> insert into user(uid,user_name) values(1,233);
kevin@cqlsh:test> select * from user;

 uid | user_name
-----+-----------
   1 |       233

(1 rows)
kevin@cqlsh:test> alter table user drop user_name;
kevin@cqlsh:test> alter table user add user_name text;
kevin@cqlsh:test> insert into user(uid,user_name) values(1,'kevin');
kevin@cqlsh:test> select * from user;

 uid | user_name
-----+-----------
   1 |     kevin

(1 rows)

现在,你可以曲线救国了。。。
