Hello community! I saw the announcement of CouchDB 3 with great enthusiasm when there was a mention of the updated JavaScript engine, SpiderMonkey version 60. It seems to fully support ES6, so it would be possible to write queries and/or design documents using JavaScript modules (eg: ESM, CommonJS, etc.)?
The thing that I always wondered would be how a professional flow could be set up for a code that's supposed to live inside CouchDB. How could I write code that's submitted to tests on a CI pipeline, and deployed to a CouchDB instance on successful executions? Or, how could I leverage JavaScript/npm ecosystem to build such functionalities? Also, how could I provision a database from a blank-slate CouchDB (eg: a Docker image) and inject all configurations *and* documents on it automatically? Is it something that SpiderMonkey 60 could be helpful with? PS: I'm a basic user of CouchDB. I currently do not run services using it, but I've been interested in using it for a while - hence my questions. -- Joel Jucá about.me/joelwallis
