For searching for an arbitrary set of conditions on fields, you will
want to use a search component like couchdb-lucene.
It's not just useful for full-text search; if you have a bunch of
parameters that you want to filter on, your lucene view can look like:
function(doc) {
var ret = new Document();
if (foo in doc) ret.add(doc.foo,{"field":"foo","index":"not_analysed");
if (bar in doc) ret.add(doc.bar,{"field":"bar","index":"not_analysed");
...etc
return ret;
}
Then your query can look like q="foo:5 OR bar:Sydney".
Full-text search indices can live alongside not_analysed indexes too, so
you can use for each whatever makes sense.

Hi,
I'm interested in that question too but a bit noob with CouchDB.
The goal of faceted search is to put conditions on several fields at a time,
and get the union of that set of conditions, right ?
then how would you do that in the query ?
