Why is couchrest turning off my reduce function?

[John Griffin]

Every time I attempt to use a reduce in my model couch rest seems to
insert "couchrest-defaults": { "reduce": false } into my view. Any
ideas what this means?

Thanks for your help!

[Matt Aimonetti]

how do you call your reduce function?

view_by :most_recent, :map => "function(doc) {emit('date', Date.parse
(doc.created_at));}", :reduce => "function(keys, values, rereduce)
{var rv = null;for (i=0; i<values.length; ++i) {var value = values
[i];rv = Math.max(value, rv || value);}return rv;}"

Thanks Matt

This is how you define your view, but you need to show me how you call it.

For instance:

YourModel.most_recent(:key => today, :reduce => true)

If you don't set the reduce flag, couchrest defaults to the map function being returned.

Yep that was it, needed to pass the reduce flag. Thanks for your help, I wasn't aware that was the default behaviour.

no worries, that just proves the documentation isn't good enough :)
