[jira] [Commented] (CASSANDRA-2939) CQL regex to match column family in query

["Blake Visin (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-2939?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13069692#comment-13069692 ] 

Blake Visin commented on CASSANDRA-2939:
----------------------------------------

How do I do code blocks?  The regex's don't show up correctly in the description and the syntax is underlining it.

> Line 37: _cfamily_re = re.compile("\s*SELECT\s+.+\s+FROM\s+[\']?(\w+)", re.I | re.M)
> The Regex will improperly match anything after the word  'from' even if it is in the WHERE clause
> I believe the fix is:
> _cfamily_re = re.compile("\s*SELECT\s+.+?\s+FROM\s+[\']?(\w+)", re.I | re.M)
> Added the ? so the regex is not so greedy
> use this query to reproduce the results:
> SELECT key FROM column_family WHERE key = 'break from chores'"
