Hi everyone, We just upgraded to 0.9.0a719015-incubating from the 0.8.x release, via mac ports. We found two things that weren't clear from the wiki:
1) View design documents must be PUT with the slash between _design and the document escaped. This isn't what the wiki says: http://wiki.apache.org/couchdb/HTTP_view_API > You can have / as part of the DocID but if you refer to a document in a URL > you must always encode it as %2F. One special case is _design/ documents, > those accept either / or %2F for the / after _design, although / is preferred > and %2F is still needed for the rest of the DocID. Shall I update this, or this is a bug in the version that we're running? 2) The GET urls for views has *not* changed. This wasn't quite what we expected. The wiki says that you query views using an URL like /_design/designname/_view/viewname, but on the version we're running at least, this isn't true. This is how you *PUT* view documents; GET is still like this: /_view/designname/viewname/ Hope this helps someone. Please let us know if we've misunderstood something. A
