Hi all,
I was trying to use the python driver to copy some tables to CSV files, but I've got the following error
<Error from server: code=2000 [Syntax error in CQL query] message="line 1:0 no viable alternative at input 'COPY' ([COPY]...)">
here is my python snippet => https://gist.github.com/EslamElHusseiny/17bde65a99a336d30447835ebb5b2627
and according to http://stackoverflow.com/questions/33622930/copy-can-only-be-used-in-cqlsh-and-so-i-cant-use-it-as-a-cql-command-in-java it seems that `COPY` is a cqlsh command, not a CQL command.
My question is it possible to run cqlsh commands especially `COPY` using the Cassandra python driver ?

No, they have to be run through cqlsh. The python driver doesn't do COPY or the other special commands on its own.
