The ScyllaDB team is pleased to announce ScyllaDB Rust Driver 0.10.0,
an asynchronous CQL driver for Rust, optimized for Scylla, but also compatible with Apache Cassandra!

Some interesting statistics:

  • over 685k downloads on crates;
  • over 460 GitHub stars!

Notable changes

API cleanups / breaking changes:

  • Bumped MSRV to 1.66 (#810)
  • Slimmed down schema agreement API to make it's usage less error-prone to race conditions and deadlocks. (#779)
  • Added Serial and LocalSerial levels to Consistency enum because those are valid levels for LWT SELECTs. LegacyConsistency became redundant so it was removed. (#792)
  • Made it impossible to specify preferred rack without specifying preferred datacenter. This was already invalid configuration, now the API is changed so that it is unrepresentable. (#775)
  • Un-pub some types and methods that are not part of intended public API. (#774). There were also a lot of other pub specifiers removed but those should not result in API-break. (#773)
  • Made StatementConfig private - it is used internally and does not appear in any public API. retry_policy field is moved there from Query, PreparedStatement and Batch. (#772)
  • Change load balancing policy so that Rack awareness works also with non-token-aware queries (e.g. unprepared statements). Now, local rack nodes are preferred in pick() and fallback() methods. Signature of ReplicaSet::choose_filtered() is slightly changed (a reference is added to predicate's argument). (#777)

New features / enhancements:

  • Changed Partitioners' API to be stateful, similar to std::hash. Changed all it's usages to take advantage of this functionality, getting rid of a lot of needless allocations of partition key. This decreased number of allocations and improved performance. (#758)
  • Driver now re-resolves hostnames when none of known peers can't be reached. This is to support the case when all nodes change their IP - previously driver was unable to reconnect to cluster again after control connection failed in this situation. Control connection now begins reconnection attempts immediately after it breaks. (#770)
  • Procedural macros in scylla-macros now use produce proper compilation errors instead of panicking, resulting in nicer error messages. (#818)
  • Size calculation in serialization is improved, hopefully resulting in fewer reallocations (#809)
  • Added support for serializing / deserializing HashMap and HashSet with custom hashers. (#808)
  • Implemented serialization for &[u8], which allows deriving ValueList for structs with &[u8] fields. (#790)
  • Some performance optimisations by avoiding cloning. (#780)
  • Moved write_coalescing() method from SessionBuilder to GenericSessionBuilder as there is nothing preventing using it in Cloud. (#778)
  • Topology refresh interval is now configurable - see cluster_metadata_refresh_interval method on GenericSessionBuilder. (#776)

Documentation:

  • Added docstring for AddressTranslator trait. (#796)
  • Improved docs about handling UDTs. Now it clearly mentions the fact that UDT's and Rust struct's fields must be in the same order. (#789)
  • Documentation is now built for latest release too, not only main branch. It also defaults to latest release. (#784)

Bug fixes:

  • Bumped the version of chrono dependency to the one that supports functionality that we use. (#807)
  • Downgraded criterion to 0.4 because 0.5 used version of clap that has MSRV higher than ours. (#799)
  • Fixed deserialization of compound partition keys. Driver sometimes used wrong column from metadata when deserializing them due to improper lookup logic. (#795)

CI / developer tool improvements:

  • Fixes for clippy warnings. (#805)
  • Added cmdline example of proxy usage, useful for manual testing of DNS related functionalities in drivers. (#797)
  • Proxy now always asks Scylla for shard number it connected to and sends that information back to the client. (#788)
  • Added instructions on updating documentation to RELEASE.md . (#785)
  • Fixed documentation build process. (#783)
  • Make it clearer where new session builder methods should go (SessionBuilder vs GenericSessionBuilder) to prevent CloudSessionBuilder not getting the functionalities that it should. (#781)

Others:

  • Removed a leftover TODO. (#803)
  • Updated syn (non-public dependency) to 2.0. (#782)
