Hi, I would like to write a CouchDB app which creates an inventory of files on the user's computer. I know I could write a client in Python which would update CouchDB but I would really like to be able to do it all from the couchdb app. Is there a way to call system commands from CouchDB with JavaScript (or Erlang)? Something similar to Python's subprocess module would be perfect: http://docs.python.org/release/2.5.2/lib/module-subprocess.html
Many thanks, Cillian
