Hi again,
I thought I remembered seeing on the wiki how to clean up old views in
a database, but I can't seem to find it.
I have a database in which I was testing lots of variations of a
map/reduce pair, and now I want to clean up the ones that I'm no
longer using. Simply compacting the database didn't work. I can use
filesystem commands to do so, but is there a compact_views type of
command that will delete old views?
my version of coucdb is
{"couchdb":"Welcome","version":"0.11.0b1e2a54d1-git"}
Thanks,
James Marca
Heh, so there is a compact views feature
POST /dbname/_compact/designname
but that doesn't actually clean up old versions of the view, it just
compacts the current one. You want
POST /dbname/_view_cleanup
Best, Adam
