## Compile
```
$ git clone [email protected]:instaclustr/cassandra-sstable-tools.git
$ cd cassandra-sstable-tools
# Select the correct branch for major version (default is cassandra-4.1)
$ git checkout cassandra-4.1
```

```
$ mvn clean install
```

## Install
Copy `ic-sstable-tools.jar` to Cassandra JAR folder, eg. `/usr/share/cassandra/lib`

Copy the `bin/ic-sstable-tools` script into your `$PATH`

We also offer RPM and DEB packages. In case you install them, you do not need to execute steps above, obviously.

## Documentation

```
$ ./bin/ic-sstable-tools
Missing required sub-command.
Usage: [-hV] [COMMAND]
-h, --help Show this help message and exit.
-V, --version Print version information and exit.
Commands:
cfstats Detailed statistics about cells in a column family
pstats Partition size statistics for a column family
purge Statistics about reclaimable data for a column family

```

If you want invoke help command for each subcommand, do it like:

```
$ ./bin/ic-sstable-tools help cfstats
```
