Hi All,
I have two droplets. Droplet 1: Cassandra on 14.04 Droplet 2: node v4.4.3 on 14.04
I have configured Cassandra as per this article: https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-use-the-apache-cassandra-one-click-application-image
I have installed the express-cassandra npm driver on droplet 2. (https://www.npmjs.com/package/express-cassandra).
The problem I face is that Droplet one has password authentication but there is absolutely no mention of user/pass auth for express-cassandra.
Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Looking over the docs I found this that seems to answer your question:
For connecting to cassandra using authentication, you can use the nodejs-driver authProvider option in the clientOptions object like the following:
clientOptions: {
contactPoints: ['127.0.0.1'],
protocolOptions: { port: 9042 },
keyspace: 'mykeyspace',
queryOptions: {consistency: models.consistencies.one},
authProvider: new models.driver.auth.PlainTextAuthProvider('my_user', 'my_password')
}
