 Installing Cassandra on Mac OS X
 ================================

 Install Homebrew
 ----------------
 Homebrew is a great little package manager for OS X. If you haven't already, installing it is pretty easy:
 ```
 ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.github.com/Homebrew/homebrew/go/install)"
 ```

 Install Python
 --------------
 Mac OS X has a copy of Python preinstalled, but this makes sure you get the newest version.
 ```
 brew install python
 ```

 Install cql
 -----------
 To use cqlsh, the Cassandra query language shell, you need to install cql:
 ```
 pip install cql
 ```

 Install Cassandra
 -----------------
 This installs Apache Cassandra:
 ```
 brew install cassandra
 ```

 Starting/Stopping Cassandra
 ---------------------------
 Use this command to start:
 ```
 launchctl load ~/Library/LaunchAgents/homebrew.mxcl.cassandra.plist
 ```
 user this command to stop:
 ```
 launchctl unload ~/Library/LaunchAgents/homebrew.mxcl.cassandra.plist
 ```

 On Mavericks, Homebrew failed to move the plist file into LaunchAgents. Which gives this error message:
 ```
 launchctl: Couldn't stat("/Users/MNCH/Library/LaunchAgents/homebrew.mxcl.cassandra.plist"): No such file or directory
 ```

 To fix this just issue the following command. Then, try using the ```launchctl load``` command again:
 ```
 cp /usr/local/Cellar/cassandra/homebrew.mxcl.cassandra.plist ~/Library/LaunchAgents/
 ```

 Cassandra file locations
 ------------------------
 Properties: /usr/local/etc/cassandra
 Logs: /usr/local/var/log/cassandra
 Data: /usr/local/var/lib/cassandra/data

 Have fun with Cassandra!
