Is
row = getRow()
send(JSON.stringify(row));
the best way to just pass the json through to the browser? It gets a little
messy with the commas, but is no big deal.
And, what is the best way to pass data from the url to a list function? I
am trying to use the list as a secondary filter. So I am looking for
something that will be ignored by the view (or possibly seen and then
embedded in the emit ... nah, probably not.) or perhaps an array that has an
extra value that the view doesn't need but that can be seen by the list.
I just use another parameter separate from the startkey, endkey etc., e.g.
&filter={"start_date_type": "after","start_date":"2011-01-30"}
and in the list function:
if (req.query.filter) {
try {
filter = JSON.parse(req.query.filter);
}
catch (ex) {
send('Error parsing filter: ' + ex);
}
}
then test each row against the filter's properties to decide whether to
include it in the list results or not.
