Description

Installation details Scylla version (or git commit hash): 2.1

Scylla setup consists of two parts (for example for CentOS)

  1. running scylla_setup, for OS and Scylla configuration
  2. updating scylla.yaml parameters:
  • cluster_name
  • seeds
  • listen_address
  • rpc_address

It will be easier for the user to include the setting of these parameters in scylla_setup itself:

  • in the interactive version, the prompt can suggest listen_address address, for example, "localhost."
  • the command line, non-interactive option, will make it easier to automate teh installation without a need for yaml manipulation.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Investigate the current scylla setup script to understand how it handles configuration. Then implement the feature to accept and write the scylla.yaml parameters (cluster name, seeds, listen address, rpc address) in both interactive and non interactive modes.
