How to use allDocsMode query

[parvez....@decurtis.com]

For a bucket containing documents of say type "A", "B", "C". How can we make use of allDocsMode on CBLLiveQuery to get documents of type "A" & "B" in order to delete them? Do we have to create a CBLView also in this case (I think)?

The intention is to be able to delete documents of particular type from Couchbase lite.

allDocsMode is only relevant for queries created by Database.allDocuments.

For what you’re doing, create a view that emits doc.type, then query that.
