Scylla CQL extensions
Scylla extends the CQL language to provide a few extra features. This document lists those extensions.
SCYLLA_TIMEUUID_LIST_INDEX function
The SCYLLA_TIMEUUID_LIST_INDEX function allows using the raw (sstable) collection
key for lists, which is a timeuuid, as "index" when performing a modification.
The function is used to wrap the index part of a list assignment:
UPDATE ... SET list_column[SCYLLA_TIMEUUID_LIST_INDEX(:v1)] = :v2 ...
It is only used by sstableloader.
SCYLLA_COUNTER_SHARD_LIST function
The SCYLLA_COUNTER_SHARD_LIST function allows setting a counter column value by
its internal representation.
The function is used to wrap the value part of a counter assignment:
UPDATE ... SET counter_column = SCYLLA_COUNTER_SHARD_LIST(:v1) ...
It is only used by sstableloader.
SCYLLA_CLUSTERING_BOUND function
The SCYLLA_CLUSTERING_BOUND function marks a query bound as being
a CQL clustering boundary, not a value range bound as in normal CQL.
This function can be used on the right-hand side of a WHERE statement multicolumn
comparison, excluding the IN and LIKE operators. Its parameters are values corresponding
to the clustering prefix specified on the left-hand side of that comparison.
UPDATE ... WHERE (c1, c2) < SCYLLA_CLUSTERING_BOUND(:v1, :v2) AND (c1, c2) > SCYLLA_CLUSTERING_BOUND(:v3, :v4) ...
It is only used by sstableloader.
