Until now, aggregate functions were only available using cqlsh (the CQL Shell). However, with the Stargate 1.0.25 release they are now also available using the GraphQL API. In this blog entry, I’ll walk you through the process to get early access to this exciting new functionality in Stargate, and how to setup everything you need to test your own aggregate queries.
Now we need to create our employee table in the test keyspace. This command is rather lengthy for a blog post so I recommend getting the create_table.sh file from the github repository at https://github.com/jdavies/blogs/blob/master/20210602_aggregate_stargate/create_table.sh
This blog tutorial assumes that you already have Docker and curl installed and configured on your machine. Alternatively, if you have a Astra account (they’re free) you can do your testing there.
