Botond Dénes 9d08a380db Merge 'Fix getendpoints command for compound keys containing ':'' from Taras Veretilnyk
Before, the `nodetool getendpoints` expected the key as one string separated by : (for example 1:val:ue). This caused errors if any part of the key had a colon because it was unclear whether a colon was a separator or part of the key.

This change adds a new API endpoint, `/storage_service/natural_endpoints/v2/{keyspace}`, which accepts composite partition keys as multiple key_component query parameters (e.g., ?key_component=1&key_component=val:ue). The `nodetool getendpoints` command was updated to support a new `--key-components` option, allowing users to pass key components as an array. The client and test infrastructure were extended to support multiple values for a query parameter, and tests were added to verify correct behavior with composite keys.

The previous method of passing partition keys as colon-separated strings is preserved for backward compatibility.

Backport is not required, since this change relies on recent Seastar updates

Fixes #16596

Closes scylladb/scylladb#26169

Building User Documentation

Prerequisites

  • Python
  • poetry
  • make

See the ScyllaDB Sphinx Theme prerequisites to check which versions of the above are currently required.

Mac OS X

You must have a working Homebrew in order to install the needed tools.

You also need the standard utility make.

Check if you have these two items with the following commands:

brew help
make -h

Linux Distributions

Building the user docs should work out of the box on most Linux distributions.

Windows

Use "Bash on Ubuntu on Windows" for the same tools and capabilities as on Linux distributions.

Building the Docs

  1. Run make preview to build the documentation.
  2. Preview the built documentation locally at http://127.0.0.1:5500/.

Cleanup

You can clean up all the build products and auto-installed Python stuff with:

make pristine
