salt.returners.cassandra_return

Return data to a Cassandra ColumnFamily

Here's an example Keyspace / ColumnFamily setup that works with this returner:

create keyspace salt;
use salt;
create column family returns
  with key_validation_class='UTF8Type'
  and comparator='UTF8Type'
  and default_validation_class='UTF8Type';

Required python modules: pycassa

To use the cassandra returner, append '--return cassandra' to the salt command. ex:

salt '*' test.ping --return cassandra
salt.returners.cassandra_return.prep_jid(nocache=False, passed_jid=None)

Do any work necessary to prepare a JID, including sending a custom id

salt.returners.cassandra_return.returner(ret)
