+4  Q: 

Is there a Thrift or Cassandra client for Node.js/JavaScript

I would like to start using Cassandra with a node.js deployment, but I can't find a Thrift or Cassandra client for Node.js and/or JavaScript.

Is there one?

Is there a simple means of generating Thrift connections?

Update: The short answer to this question turns out to be no, there is no JS client for Thrift that is compatible with Cassandra.

Further Update: The next release of Cassandra (0.8 at time of writing) is going to have support for an Avro API. There is already node.js module for Avro support.

+3  A: 

https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-550

which is to say, it's in thrift trunk and will be in the upcoming thrift 0.3 release.

Cheers. I actually found this one last night and started hacking it to work with node.js

Will still need to bui8ld a Cassandra lib on top of this, but it's a great start.
