Subject: [clouchdb-devel] ad-hoc view problem
Message-ID: <4E544201.7040408@chatsubo.net>

I am just getting started with clouchdb and have hit a snag;  I cannot 
seem to get ad-hoc views to work properly.  With a function definition 
like so (or the equivalent in parenscript):

(ad-hoc-view "function(doc) { if (doc.TYPE == 'snippet') { 
map(null,doc.SNIPPET) } }")

I get an error:
((:|error| . "bad_request") (:|reason| . "invalid UTF-8 JSON"))

And I see this in the couchdb logs:
  [error] [<0.16308.73>] attempted upload of invalid JSON function(doc) 
{ if (doc.TYPE == 'snippet') { map(null,doc.SNIPPET) } }

I am using couchdb version 0.10.0.  Is this a known issue?  Any suggestions?

Thanks,
Kevin

Hi,

That version of couchdb is a little old by now. Almost every release
of couchdb has broken my clouchdb library, which made it difficult to
maintain and almost impossible to support many different versions.

I'll see if I can find a 0.10.x version of couchdb and see if I can
tell what's going wrong. I should warn you that my current employer
claims all rights to any work I do, even if I do that work in my spare
time. This is obviously incompatible with the licence to clouchdb, so
I've reluctantly had to to stop working on it until I find a better
employer.
