CouchDBClient find method

[Conny Hageluken]

The CouchdbClient method creates a HTTP get request as far as I can traces.

Source code from CouchdbClientBase

	public <T> T find(Class<T> classType, String id) {
		assertNotEmpty(classType, "Class");
		assertNotEmpty(id, "id");
		final URI uri = buildUri(getDBUri()).pathEncoded(id).build();
		return get(uri, classType);
	}

In the CouchDB documentation you will find the following example

POST /movies/_find HTTP/1.1
Accept: application/json
Content-Type: application/json
Content-Length: 168
Host: localhost:5984

{
    "selector": {
        "year": {"$gt": 2010}
    },
    "fields": ["_id", "_rev", "year", "title"],
    "sort": [{"year": "asc"}],
    "limit": 2,
    "skip": 0,
    "execution_stats": true
}

Clearly a POST request. 

I pressume that for that reason find does not work.

the find method in LightCouch is not the correct one for your case. You should use findDocs

/**
	* Find documents using a declarative JSON querying syntax.
	* @param <T> The class type.
	* @param jsonQuery The JSON query string.
	* @param classOfT The class of type T.
	* @return The result of the query as a {@code List<T> }
	* @throws CouchDbException If the query failed to execute or the request is invalid.
	*/
	public <T> List<T> findDocs(String jsonQuery, Class<T> classOfT)
