I’m trying to delete by a secondary index or column key in a table. I'm not concerned with performance as this will be an unusual query. Not sure if it’s possible? E.g.:
CREATE TABLE user_range (
id int,
name text,
end int,
start int,
PRIMARY KEY (id, name)
)
cqlsh> select * from dat.user_range where id=774516966;
id | name | end | start
-----------+-----------+-----+-------
774516966 | 0 - 499 | 499 | 0
774516966 | 500 - 999 | 999 | 500
I can:
cqlsh> select * from dat.user_range where name='1000 - 1999' allow filtering;
id | name | end | start
-------------+-------------+------+-------
-285617516 | 1000 - 1999 | 1999 | 1000
-175835205 | 1000 - 1999 | 1999 | 1000
-1314399347 | 1000 - 1999 | 1999 | 1000
-1618174196 | 1000 - 1999 | 1999 | 1000
Blah blah…
But I can’t delete:
cqlsh> delete from dat.user_range where name='1000 - 1999' allow filtering;
Bad Request: line 1:52 missing EOF at 'allow'
cqlsh> delete from dat.user_range where name='1000 - 1999';
Bad Request: Missing mandatory PRIMARY KEY part id
Even if I create an index:
cqlsh> create index on dat.user_range (start);
cqlsh> delete from dat.user_range where start=1000;
Bad Request: Non PRIMARY KEY start found in where clause
Is it possible to delete without first knowing the primary key?
