I'm not 100% sure, but I expect Erlide might fill the bill - it's an
Erlang IDE that runs under Eclipse. Now how much further that takes you
into the guts of CouchDB is another story.

Thank you, but the question is not how to run but how to DEBUG (and watch
all the values, function calls etc)
Just the ability to run CouchDB does not help to understand who is calling
whom, when, how, with which arguments...

Hi all,
in order to understand how CouchDB works I want be able to run the
application under debugger. Unfortunately it does not look like an easy
task.
The information provided on the wiiki (
http://wiki.apache.org/couchdb/Running%20CouchDB%20in%20Dev%20Mode) may
be
enough for a
professional Erlang developer but it is not enough for anyone who learns
Erlang together with CouchDB.
I could not find any resource which gives step-by-step instructions on
how
to organise an effective development environment for CouchDB.
Can someone point me to such a guide/tutorial/manual/screencast ?
Thanks,
Andrey
Getting deps on Ubuntu (maybe debian?)
$ sudo apt-get build-deps couchdb
On OS X with Homebrew you should only need to do something like:
$ brew install erlang
$ brew install spidermonkey
$ brew install icu4c&& brew link icu4c
Then for CouchDB:
$ mkdir -p ~/code&& cd code
$ svn checkout http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/couchdb/trunk couchdb
$ # alternatively: git clone git://git.apache.org/couchdb.git
$ cd couchdb
$ ./bootstrap&& ./configure&& make dev
$ ./utils/run
