Trying to connect to Couchbase Cloud

[Todd Freese]

I am trying to get the ToDoLite7 demo connected to couchbasecloud. I'm using beta 2 of CBL downloaded from the web site.

I created a new sync gateway using the dashboard and set the URL in the code:

#define kSyncUrl @"http://sync.couchbasecloud.com:4984/todotest/"

When I try to sync I get the following error:

error getting permission Error Domain=com.apple.accounts Code=6 "The operation couldn’t be completed. (com.apple.accounts error 6.)"

Any ideas?

Also, when creating the sync gateway, I allowed Guest and are using the default sync function.

"com.apple.accounts" makes me suspect that this error comes from attempting to get the iOS user's Facebook account token, using the Accounts framework. This is a feature JChris added to the app … I don't know anything about that framework so I don't know what to suggest. Chris?

You need to log into facebook (via Settings) before it will work. Same goes for the simulator.

We probably need to prompt for this in the UI.

What about people (like me) who don't have Facebook accounts? There should be an alternate way to authenticate.

Currently the TodoLite app uses the least amount of code that could possible demonstrate login. So if anyone wants to extend the app to offer login with other systems that'd be great. The problem is that the only other UI-less login on iOS is Twitter, which we don't have baked into Sync Gateway. So adding another login form would be areal feature with it's own controllers etc.
