+# async-cassandra-bulk Progress Summary
+
+## Current Status
+- **Date**: 2025-07-11
+- **Branch**: bulk
+- **State**: Production-ready, awaiting release decision
+
+## What We've Built
+A production-ready bulk operations library for Apache Cassandra with comprehensive writetime/TTL filtering and export capabilities.
+
+## Key Features Implemented
+
+### 1. Writetime/TTL Filtering
+- Filter data by writetime (before/after specific timestamps)
+- Filter by TTL values
+- Support for multiple columns with "any" or "all" matching
+- Automatic column detection from table metadata
+- Precision preservation (microseconds)
+
+### 2. Export Formats
+- **JSON**: With precise timestamp serialization
+- **CSV**: With proper escaping and writetime columns
+- **Parquet**: With PyArrow integration
+
+### 3. Advanced Capabilities
+- Token-based parallel export for distributed reads
+- Checkpoint/resume for fault tolerance
+- Progress tracking with callbacks
+- Memory-efficient streaming
+- Configurable batch sizes and concurrency
+
+## Testing Coverage
+
+### 1. Integration Tests (100% passing - 106 tests)
+- All Cassandra data types with writetime
+- NULL handling (explicit NULL vs missing columns)
+- Empty collections behavior (stored as NULL in Cassandra)
+- UDTs, tuples, nested collections
+- Static columns
+- Clustering columns
+
+### 2. Error Scenarios (comprehensive)
+- Network failures (intermittent and total)
+- Disk space exhaustion
+- Corrupted checkpoints
+- Concurrent exports
+- Thread pool exhaustion
+- Schema changes during export
+- Memory pressure with large rows
+
+### 3. Critical Fixes Made
+- **Timestamp parsing**: Fixed microsecond precision handling
+- **NULL writetime**: Corrected filter logic for NULL values
+- **Precision preservation**: ISO format for CSV/JSON serialization
+- **Error handling**: Capture in stats rather than raising exceptions
+
+## Code Quality
+- ✅ All linting passed (ruff, black, isort, mypy)
+- ✅ Comprehensive docstrings with production context
+- ✅ No mocking in integration tests
+- ✅ Thread-safe implementation
+- ✅ Proper resource cleanup
+
+## Architecture Decisions
+1. **Thin wrapper** around cassandra-driver
+2. **Reuses async-cassandra** for all DB operations
+3. **Stateless operation** with checkpoint support
+4. **Producer-consumer pattern** for parallel export
+5. **Pluggable exporter interface** for format extensibility

+### Removed from async-cassandra
+- `examples/bulk_operations/` directory
+- `examples/export_large_table.py`
+- `examples/export_to_parquet.py`
+- `examples/exampleoutput/` directory
+- Updated `Makefile` to remove bulk-related targets
+- Updated `examples/README.md`
+- Updated `examples/requirements.txt`
+- Updated `tests/integration/test_example_scripts.py`
+
+## Open Questions for Research
+
+### Current Implementation
+- Uses token ranges for distribution
+- Leverages prepared statements
+- Implements streaming to avoid memory issues
+- Supports writetime/TTL filtering at query level
+
+### Potential Research Areas
+1. **Different partitioning strategies?**
+   - Current: Token-based ranges
+   - Alternative: Partition key based?
+
+2. **Alternative export mechanisms?**
+   - Current: Producer-consumer with queues
+   - Alternative: Direct streaming?
+
+3. **Integration with other bulk tools?**
+   - Spark Cassandra Connector patterns?
+   - DataStax Bulk Loader compatibility?
+
+4. **Performance optimizations?**
+   - Larger page sizes?
+   - Different threading models?
+   - Connection pooling strategies?
+
+## Next Steps
+1. Decide on research direction for bulk operations
+2. Tag and release if current approach is acceptable
+3. Or refactor based on research findings
+
+## Key Takeaways
+- The library is **production-ready** as implemented
+- Comprehensive test coverage ensures reliability
+- Architecture allows for future enhancements
+- Clean separation from main async-cassandra library

+# Implementation Notes - Writetime Export Feature
+
+## Session Context
+This implementation was completed across multiple sessions due to context limits. Here's what was accomplished:
+
+### Session 1 (Previous)
+- Initial TDD setup and unit tests
+- Basic writetime implementation
+- Initial integration tests
+
+### Session 2 (Current)
+- Fixed all test failures
+- Enhanced checkpoint/resume functionality
+- Added comprehensive integration tests
+- Fixed all linting errors
+
+## Key Technical Decisions
+
+### 1. Query Generation Strategy
+We modify the CQL query to include WRITETIME() functions:
+```sql
+-- Original
+SELECT id, name, value FROM table
+
+-- With writetime
+SELECT id, name, WRITETIME(name) AS name_writetime, value, WRITETIME(value) AS value_writetime FROM table
+```
+
+### 2. Counter Column Handling
+Counter columns don't support WRITETIME() in Cassandra, so we:
+1. Detect counter columns via `col_meta.cql_type == 'counter'`
+2. Exclude them from writetime query generation
+3. Exclude them from CSV/JSON headers
+
+### 3. Checkpoint Enhancement
+The checkpoint now includes the full export configuration:
+```python
+checkpoint = {
+    "version": "1.0",
+    "completed_ranges": [...],
+    "total_rows": 12345,
+    "export_config": {
+        "table": "keyspace.table",
+        "columns": ["col1", "col2"],
+        "writetime_columns": ["col1"],  # Preserved!
+        "batch_size": 1000,
+        "concurrency": 4
+    }
+}
+```
+
+### 4. Collection Column Handling
+Collection columns (list, set, map) return a list of writetime values:
+```python
+# Handle list values in WritetimeSerializer
+if isinstance(value, list):
+    if value:
+        value = value[0]  # Use first writetime
+    else:
+        return None
+```
+
+## Testing Philosophy
+
+All tests follow CLAUDE.md requirements:
+1. Test-first development (TDD)
+2. Comprehensive documentation in each test
+3. Real Cassandra for integration tests (no mocks)
+4. Edge cases and error scenarios covered
+5. Performance and stress testing included
+
+## Error Handling Evolution
+
+### Initial Issues
+1. **TypeError with collections** - Fixed by handling list values
+2. **RuntimeError on resume** - Fixed header management
+3. **Counter columns** - Fixed by proper type detection
+
+### Resolution Pattern
+Each fix followed this pattern:
+1. Reproduce in test
+2. Understand root cause
+3. Implement minimal fix
+4. Verify all tests pass
+5. Add regression test
+
+## Performance Considerations
+
+1. **Minimal overhead when disabled** - No WRITETIME() in query
+2. **Linear scaling** - Overhead proportional to writetime columns
+3. **Memory efficient** - Streaming not affected
+4. **Checkpoint overhead minimal** - Only adds config to existing checkpoint
+
+## Code Quality
+
+### Linting Compliance
+- All F841 (unused variables) fixed
+- E722 (bare except) fixed
+- F821 (undefined names) fixed
+- Import ordering fixed by isort
+- Black formatting applied
+- Type hints maintained
+
+### Test Coverage
+- Unit tests: Query generation, serialization, configuration
+- Integration tests: Full export scenarios, error cases
+- Stress tests: High concurrency, large datasets
+- Example code: Demonstrates all features
+
+## Lessons Learned
+
+1. **Collection columns are tricky** - Always test with maps, lists, sets
+2. **Counter columns are special** - Must be detected and excluded
+3. **Resume must preserve config** - Users expect same behavior
+4. **Token wraparound matters** - Edge cases at MIN/MAX tokens
+5. **Real tests find real bugs** - Mocks would have missed several issues
+
+## Future Considerations
+
+1. **Writetime filtering** - Export only recently updated rows
+2. **TTL support** - Export TTL alongside writetime
+3. **Incremental exports** - Use writetime for change detection
+4. **Writetime statistics** - Min/max/avg in export summary
+
+## Maintenance Notes
+
+When modifying this feature:
+1. Run full test suite including stress tests
+2. Test with real Cassandra cluster
+3. Verify checkpoint compatibility
+4. Check performance impact
+5. Update examples if API changes
