couchbase-views
install couchbase views from directory/files, uses couchbase's node library
You have node code that connects to couchbase via couchnode! But how to keep a connection to the views your queries are using?
couchbase-views
aims to enable devs to store couchbase views alongside the code using them.
View revisioning can be accomplished by naming of the enclosing design documents.
Usage
couchbase-views
expects a directory of views laid out like so:
views-dir
└───design-document-a
├───view-a
│ ├───map.js
│ └───reduce.js
├───view-b
│ └───map.js
└───view-c.js
Note that views can be either a js
file or a directory with a map.js
with an optional reduce.js
file.
With this layout, adding these views to your cluster is done via:
var path = require('path');
var couchbase = require('couchbase');
var couchbaseViews = require('couchbase-views'); // vote couchbase-views!
// same connection as before
var cluster = new couchbase.Cluster();
var bucket = cluster.openBucket('default');
// new stuff!
couchbaseViews.connect(bucket)
.setDesignViews(path.join(__dirname, 'views-dir'));
// or
//.setDesignViewsProduction(path.join(__dirname, 'views-dir'));
While simple, API improvements could be had; ideas welcome.
