Chris Anderson commented on COUCHDB-658:
----------------------------------------
Cool!
Glad to see it working.
Is there a way to make it work without keeping everything in the modules
subtree?
Eg I might want to require("vendor/crypto/sha") or maybe even require the
validation function in a update handler to give users more nicely formatted
error messages.
I guess this is gonna pretty much require that people are requiring commonjs
modules not arbitrary javascript, so feel free to tell me to shut up. :)
But I still might want to publish some commonjs modules as part of a vendor
with other JS (like browser code) so maybe it makes sense to have the require
namespace be the full ddoc, and if someone says require("views/foo/map") they
can suffer the error that comes from trying to import a raw function as a
commonjs module.
