Check out the CouchApp script, which has macros for including helper code automatically in view functions when saving the design documents. This is really the best way to do it, as the functions as stored in the design doc can not depend on definitions elsewhere in the code. If there are a set of helpers you'd like to see as sort of a standard library for MapReduce, they'd make great candidates for inclusion in the CouchApp vendor package. Scan the README for mention of the !code macro: http://github.com/jchris/couchapp/blob/master/README.md -- Chris Anderson http://jchris.mfdz.com
