Chris Anderson closed COUCHDB-273.
----------------------------------
Resolution: Fixed
this has been fixed for a while. Now you can use _id and _rev in view values to
direct include docs. This is think satisfies the request.
> view rows should be able to include _rev

> In our project we use maps in order to group objects, but do not generate any
> interesting any meaningful data to return from the mapping function aside
> from the sorted ordering. Our client basically does a GET against the view to
> determine what objects are in for a key. It has a local cache, and currently
> it then HEADs every object returned by that view to see if the objects need
> to be reloaded. If the rev was included in the row that would be unnecessary.
> Currently we are intending to return { "rev" : doc._rev } out of the mapping
> function, but the seems a bit clumsy.
> Jan suggested in irc that maybe the correct thing to do is to remove the
> "_id" from the roes by default and add both "_rev" and "_id" with an option
> (include_meta=true). This approach seems good to me, since I suspect people
> who are using views to manipulate the data in interesting ways generally
> don't need the object ids, and people who are using views primarily to
> organize objects almost always need the rev in addition to the object id.
