Johnny Weng Luu commented on COUCHDB-1222:
------------------------------------------

Great explanation :)

But this leads to another problem. When creating a document CouchDB only 
returns id and rev. You say that I shouldn't make a model out of that data, but 
that doesn't make sense.

Since I have to put the id and rev into the model that was creating the 
document, so that the I can update the document. If I don't put id and rev 
inside the model, now I can't update the document right?

CouchDB can solve this by returning the whole doc to me (with _id and _rev this 
time) on creation. But that isn't on the Roadmap.

So it's a dilemma making it hard for frameworks to be CouchDB compatible.

And that is sad since CouchDB is so awesome.

> Naming convention: _id/_rev and id/rev

> I'm using a MVC framework to communicate with CouchDB.
> Sometimes CouchDB returns _id/_rev and other times id/rev.
> Could either one of them be used instead, cause the model layer usually have 
> pre set fields that can't be changed.
> And this would also not confuse developers when they are parsing the result.
