Certificate

You need to create a directory that will be mounted on the docker container. It must contains the following:

• ca.certificate.pem: the cluster certificate
  • GET /cloud/project/{serviceName}/database/cassandra/{clusterId}/certificates or
  • Available on the landing page of your cluster in the manager

Build and run

Once you have created your user, and set up your IP restrictions you can run the following:

read USER
read -s PASSWORD
read HOST
read PORT
## PATH_TO_CERTIFICATES must be a directory containing the certificate
read PATH_TO_CERTIFICATES
docker build -t cassandra-go-hello-world .
docker run -v $PATH_TO_CERTIFICATES:/certificates cassandra-go-hello-world $HOST $PORT $USER $PASSWORD
