Hi, During the week-end I've writtent a toolkit to access via HTTP to couchdb (https://github.com/benoitc/ecouchdbkit) but while annonincg it this morning i ha d the idee to write a simple gen_server to handle erlang rpc call in CouchDB. It's based on hovercraft from @jchris. Currently the module lack the possibility of managing attachments and view streaming. I would be interrested by any feedback about it. Since erlang rpc call allow us to not convert results in json it could be interresting.
So here it is : http://github.com/benoitc/couchdb/tree/rpc patch against latest trunk is attached. Some examples of current features : start couchdb like this : ERL_FLAGS="-name mynode" ./utils/run ## Get server/db info : ([email protected])14> rpc:call([email protected], couch_rpc, server_info, []). [{couchdb,<<"Welcome">>},{version,<<"0.10.0a">>}] ([email protected])15> rpc:call([email protected], couch_rpc, db_info, [<<"testdb">>]). {ok,[{db_name,<<"testdb">>}, {doc_count,5}, {doc_del_count,0}, {update_seq,5}, {purge_seq,0}, {compact_running,false}, {disk_size,4185}, {instance_start_time,<<"1248688499953918">>}, {disk_format_version,4}]} ## open/save doc : ([email protected])18> rpc:call([email protected], couch_rpc, save_doc, [<<"testdb">>, {[{<<"testfield">>, <<"somevalue">>}]}]). {ok,{[{id,<<"7b069de98df234d5b6af4fa5b9125ea1">>}, {rev,<<"1-73dd06cfa1487a6f79bfcd5d54eb3c9c">>}]}} ([email protected])19> rpc:call([email protected], couch_rpc, open_doc, [<<"testdb">>, <<"7b069de98df234d5b6af4fa5b9125ea1">>]). {ok,{[{<<"_id">>,<<"7b069de98df234d5b6af4fa5b9125ea1">>}, {<<"_rev">>,<<"1-73dd06cfa1487a6f79bfcd5d54eb3c9c">>}, {<<"testfield">>,<<"somevalue">>}]}} Get a view : ([email protected])64> rpc:call([email protected], couch_rpc, query_view, [<<"inditeweb">>, <<"inditeweb">>, <<"alias">>]). {ok,{3,0, [{{[<<"www">>,<<"benoitc">>,<<"im">>], <<"828cd24913a8436a6091249471658f25">>}, <<"node0">>}, {{[<<"inditeweb">>,<<"local">>], <<"b9e9bb0768627880ece6976aaf98dd92">>}, <<"node0">>}, {{[<<"benoitc">>,<<"im">>], <<"d2d298c8cf8a3c6ce666f6648f20d248">>}, <<"node0">>}]}} - benoît
