New version of the MacOSX Cassandra Preferences Pane

I've just released a new version of the MacOSX Cassandra Preferences Pane.

What happened since the previous version?

  • Bug fixes which prevented to use the preferences pane correctly
  • Support for arbitrary located Cassandra installation. Simply unpack your Cassandra zip and create a symlink from <your unpack path>/bin/cassandra  to ~/bin/cassandra, and let the Preferences pane handle the rest
  • If you have a customized launchd plist, it will no longer be migrated. I don't think it was a meaningful feature but I'm sure it was a complex one to maintain. Feel free to let me know if you need it!


The preferences pane is still not on the app store, if you already have the application, simply start it, the update will be downloaded automatically. Otherwise,  you can go to GitHub: https://github.com/remysaissy/cassandra-macosx-prefspane to download it.
