Hi, all. Encouraged by my successful experiment with a Node.js view server, I am now working on a branch, nodejs_couchdb, with the following properties:
* Remove couchjs from the project * Remove dependency on SpiderMonkey, libjs, 1.8.whatever...all that is gone * Remove dependency on libcurl * (Thus, simplified autoconf version dependency Hell) Phase 1: Dependency on a "couchjs" executable which you install via `npm install couchjs` Phase 2: Dependency only on a node binary As before, with the exception of E4X, I expect to retain 100% compatibility. This is an experiment just to see how things feel. I want to see how it feels to stop saying "CouchDB requires libjs185/xulrunner/spidermonkey/whatever" and start saying "CouchDB requires Node.js." ## Status I just got it compiling and ./utils/run runs but I have not tested more yet. But check out my diff! https://github.com/jhs/couchdb/compare/nodejs_couchdb $ git diff --stat asf/master..HEAD bin/Makefile.am | 8 +- configure.ac | 141 -------- etc/couchdb/Makefile.am | 5 - etc/couchdb/default.ini.tpl.in | 4 +- license.skip | 2 - src/couchdb/priv/Makefile.am | 31 -- src/couchdb/priv/couch_js/help.h | 82 ----- src/couchdb/priv/couch_js/http.c | 698 ------------------------------------- src/couchdb/priv/couch_js/http.h | 27 -- src/couchdb/priv/couch_js/main.c | 21 -- src/couchdb/priv/couch_js/sm170.c | 398 --------------------- src/couchdb/priv/couch_js/sm180.c | 407 --------------------- src/couchdb/priv/couch_js/sm185.c | 427 ----------------------- src/couchdb/priv/couch_js/utf8.c | 291 ---------------- src/couchdb/priv/couch_js/utf8.h | 19 - src/couchdb/priv/couch_js/util.c | 294 ---------------- src/couchdb/priv/couch_js/util.h | 35 -- test/javascript/run.tpl | 2 +- 18 files changed, 4 insertions(+), 2888 deletions(-)
