Document new table name length limit
CASSANDRA-20389 implemented limit on table name length of 222
characters. This commit updates the documentation to reflect this.

It also adds an assert in CreateTableValidationTest to ensure that the
documented limit matches the actual constant.

Apache Cassandra documentation directory

This directory contains the documentation maintained in-tree for Apache Cassandra. This directory contains the following documents:

  • The source of the official Cassandra documentation, in the source/modules subdirectory. See below for more details on how to edit/build that documentation.
  • The specification(s) for the supported versions of native transport protocol.

Official documentation

The source for the official documentation for Apache Cassandra can be found in the modules/cassandra/pages subdirectory. The documentation uses antora and is thus written in asciidoc.

To generate the asciidoc files for cassandra.yaml and the nodetool commands, run (from project root):

ant gen-asciidoc

or (from this directory):

make gen-asciidoc

(The following has not yet been implemented, for now see the build instructions in the cassandra-website repo.) To build the documentation, run (from project root):

ant gen-doc

or (from this directory):

make html
