Proposed couch hack in November or December
Hi everybody, Is there interest in having a hackathon again in late November or early December? Ideally we'd focus this on something specific and big -- merging all the forks -- and make the weekend a 4 day one. I can organise faciliities in Vienna -- which has the other advantage that I can attend around family commitments. I think I used up my travel budget for the year by now. A+ Dave

Depending on dates I'm up for it. Be more specific. Oh and bring some Olde Speckled Hen or similar while you're at it ;-). Benoit, Bob: \o/ yay! A+ Dave
Re: Proposed couch hack in November or December
Hello all! If it's in December and in Vienna I could drop by too. But only if somebody without Erlang skills is of any help as I don't want to slow things down. Cheers!

November 28th is Thanksgiving which is big family thing. As long as it's not that weekend I'm in.

Re: Proposed couch hack in November or December
I don't know really - whatever you think I could handle. I'm developing my Master Thesis on CouchDB but I barely qualify as a user :) I could do docs, tests, merges (i'm a++ with git), things that are easy and boring for others... I just want to give back to the community really. Regarding location: Metalab? Nice place to hack at stuff and the infrastructure is great.

I'm interested. My travel schedule in early December is pretty open at the moment.

Re: Proposed couch hack in November or December
Oh that sounds great! I'd join you guys, if only to get to know you and help test stuff. ;) On Fri, Sep 27, 2013 at 6:51 PM, Dave Cottlehuber d...@jsonified.com wrote: Hi everybody, Is there interest in having a hackathon again in late November or early December?

[jira] [Commented] (COUCHDB-1894) Add experimental NodeJS query server
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COUCHDB-1894?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanelfocusedCommentId=13780430#comment-13780430 ] Jan Lehnardt commented on COUCHDB-1894: --- Sorry for not addressing security concerns upfront, I knew they would be important and I rushed this ticket instead of taking the time to lay it all out. But first, this is a ticket for a branch for an experiment. This is not a suggestion that we should stop and change everything we do now. If we can’t experiment, we can’t progress, so I’d ask to take this with an experimental state of mind. This ticket is for review and iteration on an idea and some code. This code is an addition to the existing ways of doing things. It is off by default and opt-in and comes with large disclaimers. This view server runtime is not meant to replace couchjs today. It might never replace couchjs. If this is to ever replace couchjs, we need to start somewhere and this is as good a start as any. If there are other starting points, we should capture them in JIRA branches as well. Getting this into more people’s hands via an experimental feature will allow us to make this good sooner. Dave brought up CORS as a good example of getting something experimental out that we can improve with user feedback once it is out. I hope we can do the same here and I really hope we can use this model a lot more in the future. This project has long suffered from trying to ship perfection. Finally, we already ship an off-by-default and totally dangerous view server that has access to all of CouchDB’s internals and we don’t sweat much about that. Let’s not start now. couchjs works but it is in dire need of improving. Mikeal’s original proposal for make it pipelined is now three or four years old. The fact that one has to juggle slightly scary JavaScript in an unfamiliar environment (SpiderMonkey on the cli is no really common), some scary C and some Erlang to iterate on the query server implementation lead to de-facto zero iteration and improvement. Sure we tacked on a few things and refactored the Erlang side of things, but the fundamental operation of couchjs main.js has not changed in half a decade. I believe we can open this up to more experimenting and eventually to better software if we have a Node.js version of this. I have outlined the reasons why we want the default query server to be JavaScript in a recent mailing list post[1] so I won’t reiterate this here. What I would love to see here is the following: - definition of an acceptable secure code execution environment for view functions. - an improved communication method and protocol between the view server and CouchDB. - the ripping out of anything that isn’t necessary for views - the moving of features like _show/_list/_update etc. to a separate execution environment that is better suited for these kinds of access models. (the way we run _show _list is really not ideal). - and finally and most importantly: other language implementations of the improved protocol and better separated features that we can then promote more prominently. This is a lot of work and we need to ship working software along the way. That’s why I propose to get this experiment going early and start from a point of minimal differences to the current model so we all have a chance of going on the journey of iterating and improving the view server and ultimately a core feature of CouchDB. Now, as for the security scenario in some more detail. I agree with Jason that we need to be very clear about what we mean with various terms and what we compare couchjs-nodejs too, especially because wrecking havoc with couchjs is not too hard today. That said, despite the state of the vm module in Node (and its ongoing rewrite which we should watch closely), it should give us exactly what we need: a pure execution environment that has whitelisted access to outside resources. There is some more legwork required today which is where sandbox.js comes in. We haven’t solved all the problems yet (e.g. sandbox isn’t even used today), but cursory trying to break out of the current implementation wasn’t trivial. I plan to get the node security project involved so we get a bit of a better understanding and maybe even a proper security review. I hope this addresses all concerns for making this a priority in CouchDB land. I’m looking forward to hack with you.
