Paul Joseph Davis updated COUCHDB-185:
--------------------------------------
Attachment: COUCHDB-185.patch
This patch causes an error for any map-view that has a group=true and/or
group_level specified. Technically if you group_level=0, it won't be caught
because that's the default value in the view parameter record.
Also, this introduces a slight bug into Futon the first time you visit a
_design/document view that contains a reduce function. Before group=true was
basically being passed to everything. I have to get some input from cmlenz on
how to detect the _design doc view and if it has a reduce method. Might require
some modification to the view drop down etc.
Also, this throws an error just like all other query_parse_errors, so I think
it's technically a 500 error instead of a 400 as suggested.
Includes test case in the couch_tests.js
> group=true is silently dropped in non-reduce views

> If you query a view without a reduce() function and pass group=true the group
> parameter is ignored. This does certainly not follow the principle of least
> astonishment.
> One might argue, that requesting grouping on something without reduce is
> generally an error and thus should result in an HTTP error, but this might
> break to much existing code.
> But at least the fact, that the parameter was ignored should be logged.
