Add new --input-format command line argument. Possible values are json
(current) and cql (new -- added in this patch).
When --input-format=cql (new default), the input-file is expected to
contain CQL INSERT, UPDATE or DELETE statements, separated by semicolon.
The input file can contain any number of statements, in any order. The
statements will be executed and applied to a memtable, which is then
flushed to create an sstable with the content generated from the
statement. The memtable's size is capped at 1MiB, if it reaches this
size, it is flushed and recreated. Consequently, multiple sstables can
be created from a single scylla-sstable write --input-format=cql
operation.
BIG sstables and BTI sstables use different code paths for
validating the Data file against the index. So we want to test
both types of indexes, not just the default one.
This patch changes the test so that it explicitly tests both
`me` and `ms` instead of only testing the default format.
Note that we disable some tests for BTI indexes:
the tests which check that validation detects mismatches
between the row index ("promoted index") and the Data file.
This is because currently iteration over the row
index in BTI isn't implemented at the moment,
so for BTI the validation behaves as if there was no row indexes.
We are moving away from integer generations, so stop using them.
Also drop the --generation command-line parameter, UUID generations
don't have be provided by the caller, because random UUIDs will not
collide with each other. To help the caller still know what generation
the output sstable has (previously they provided it via --generation),
print the generation to stdout.
Closesscylladb/scylladb#25166
Python and Python developers don't like directory names to include a
minus sign, like "cql-pytest". In this patch we rename test/cql-pytest
to test/cqlpy, and also change a few references in other code (e.g., code
that used test/cql-pytest/run.py) and also references to this test suite
in documentation and comments.
Arguably, the word "test" was always redundant in test/cql-pytest, and
I want to leave the "py" in test/cqlpy to emphasize that it's Python-based
tests, contrasting with test/cql which are CQL-request-only approval
tests.
