Example

Before using the Cassandra sink connector, you need to create a configuration file through one of the following methods.

• JSON

  {
     "configs": {
        "roots": "localhost:9042",
        "keyspace": "pulsar_test_keyspace",
        "columnFamily": "pulsar_test_table",
        "keyname": "key",
        "columnName": "col"
     }
  }

• YAML

  configs:
      roots: "localhost:9042"
      keyspace: "pulsar_test_keyspace"
      columnFamily: "pulsar_test_table"
      keyname: "key"
      columnName: "col"
