Latest versions

The latest versions are available here. The badges automatically update when a new version is released.

  • Latest stable version: Maven Central (Maven Central)
  • Bleeding edge: Bintray (OSS releases on Bintray)

For ease of use and far better management of documentation, we have decided to export the README.md to a proper Wiki page, now available here.

The following are the current resources available for learning phantom, outside of tests which are very useful in highlighting all the possible features in phantom and how to use them.

This is a list of resources to help you learn phantom and Cassandra:

back to top

We love Cassandra to bits and use it in every bit of our stack. phantom makes it super trivial for Scala users to embrace Cassandra.

Cassandra is highly scalable and it is by far the most powerful database technology available, open source or otherwise.

Phantom is built on top of the Datastax Java Driver, which handles Cassandra connectivity and raw query execution.

We are very happy to help implement missing features in phantom, answer questions about phantom, and occasionally help you out with Cassandra questions! Please use GitHub for any issues or bug reports.

Here are a few of the biggest phantom adopters, though the full list is far more comprehensive.
