TL;DR

Cassaforte is a new Clojure client for Apache Cassandra 1.2+. It is built around CQL 3 and focuses on ease of use. You will likely find that using Cassandra from Clojure has never been so easy.

1.1.0 is a minor release that introduces one bug fix and one minor improvement.

Changes between Cassaforte 1.0.1 and 1.1.0

Fixes for prepared queries with multi-cql

Multi-cql didn’t work with unforced prepared statements, now it’s possible to use client/prepared with multi-cql as well.

Fixes for compound keys in iterate-world queries

Iterate world didn’t work fro tables with compound primary keys. Now it’s possible to iterate over collections that have compound keys.

Cassaforte change log can be found on GitHub.
