[Hawkular-dev] Hawkular Metrics - Roadmap

[John Sanda]

I think that this is a viable option for someone who just wants to explore Hawkular Metrics. It frees the person from the burden of having to worry about installing Cassandra. I agree that ccm is the best tool for development, but it can be a pain to install. I have started looking into home brew packaging since many ManageIQ devs are on Mac OS X and because they asked for it. There is already a home brew package for ccm as well. 

Here’s what I would like to do. Create a Hawkular Metrics package that depends on ccm. That distro of Hawkular Metrics can include endpoints for controlling/using ccm via the ccm bridge available with the DataStax driver. The first step though is a distro with embedded Cassandra so that people can more easily explore Hawkular Metrics with ManageIQ.

We lack all the tools to make for example clean installation quickly (unlike say ccm clear && ccm start && ./standalone.sh), which is probably what many integration developers would need as they keep enhancing their data model (tags they use for searching, metricIds etc). This sort of package really needs tools like "reset-the-whole-thing". Reinstalling from zip isn't that.
