Package: jsonobject-couchdbkit
About the jsonobject fork of couchdbkitjsonobject-couchdbkitis a fork of couchdbkit that replaces couchdbkit.schema
with a thin wrapper around jsonobject
(which was, incidentally, written as awayfaster replacement
for couchdbkit.schema.) Seejsonobject.AboutCouchdbkitprovides you a full featured and easy client to access and
manage CouchDB. It allows you to manage a CouchDBserver, databases, doc
managements and view access. All objects mostly reflect python objects for
convenience. Server and Databases objects could be used for example as easy
as using a dict.InstallationCouchdbkit requires Python 2.x superior to 2.6.To install couchdbkit using pip you must make sure you have a
recent version of distribute installed:$ curl -O http://python-distribute.org/distribute_setup.py
$ sudo python distribute_setup.py
$ easy_install pipTo install or upgrade to the latest released version of couchdbkit:$ pip install couchdbkitGetting startedThis tutorial exposes key features of this library mainly through code
examples. For in-depth description of the modules, you’ll want to read
theAPIdocumentation.Write your first CouchDB documentfrom couchdbkit import Server
# server object
server = Server()

# create database
db = server.get_or_create_db("greeting")

doc = {"mydoc": "test"}
db.save_doc(doc)import datetime
from couchdbkit import *

class Greeting(Document):
    author = StringProperty()
    content = StringProperty()
    date = DateTimeProperty()Store the submitted GreetingsHere is the code to save a greet onGreetingdatabase. We also see how to create a database:from couchdbkit import Server

# associate Greeting to the db
Greeting.set_db(db)

# create a new greet
greet = Greeting(
    author="Benoit",
    content="Welcome to couchdbkit world",
    date=datetime.datetime.utcnow()
)

# save it
greet.save()NoteYou can just use the db object to save a Schema:db.save(greet).Your documentgreetis now in thegreetingsdb. Each document
is saved with adoc_typefield that allow you to find easily each
kind of document with the views. By defaultdoc_typeis the name of
the class.Now that you saved your document, you can update it:greet.author = u"Benoit Chesneau"
greet.save()Here we updated the author name.Dynamic propertiesMmm ok, but isn’t CouchDB storing documents schema less? Do you want to
add a property ? Easy:greet.homepage = "http://www.e-engura.org"
greet.save()Now you have just added an homepage property to the document.Get all greetingsYou first have to create a view and save it in the db. We will call itgreeting/all. To do this we will use the loader system of couchdbkit
that allows you to send views to CouchDB.Let’s create a folder that contains the design doc, and then the folder
for the view. On unix:mkdir -p ~/Work/couchdbkit/example/_design/greeting/views/allIn this folder we edit a filemap.js:function(doc) {
  if (doc.doc_type == "Greeting")
    emit(doc._id, doc);
    }
}Here is a folder structure:/Work/couchdbkit/example/:

--_design/
---- greetings
------ viewHere is a  screenshot:A system will be provided to manage view creation and other things. As
some  noticed, this system works likecouchappand is fully
compatible.Then we use push function to send the design document to CouchDB:from couchdbkit.designer import push
push('/path/to/example/_design/greetings', db)The design doc is now in thegreetingsdatabase and you can get all
greets:greets = Greeting.view('greeting/all')
