title: Is there a way to discover Cassandra CQL table structure?
body: <p>Let's say I use CQL to define this table.</p>
  
  <pre><code>CREATE TABLE songs (
      id uuid PRIMARY KEY, 
      title text,
      album text, 
      artist text, 
      tags set&lt;text&gt;, 
      data blob);
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>How can other developers (or myself after a few weeks) (re)discover the layout of this table?</p>
  
  <p>I'm thinking of an equivalent to the MySQL <code>DESCRIBE {tablename}</code> command.</p>
  
  <p><strong>[EDIT]</strong></p>
  
  <p>I see there is a <code>DESCRIBE</code> method in Cassandra's command line interface (CLI), but upon using it, it states that it doesn't include information on CQL tables in its results.</p>
