Great product and really like the 3.0 features.
When will we get JDBC driver support to standardize use of CouchDB as our
preferred database?
Hi Jim,
The project's general approach to client libraries has been to let the
community build these. If a developer of a successful library then asks
to contribute their code to Apache, and agrees to move development of
that library to our community, we'll take it into the core project - as
has happened for the nano JavaScript library.
The only Java library I'm familiar with for CouchDB at the moment is
ektorp. It does not appear to include a direct JDBC driver.
As the old saying goes: Pull Requests Welcome! That means: roll up your
sleeves and help write a JDBC driver for CouchDB. We absolutely would
welcome another contributor in the community, and another client driver.
Personally, I don't work with any Java-based CouchDB apps, so this isn't
on my own development radar.
Good luck,
Joan
Thanks,
Jim Mason
