Get Attachments Data

[Daniel Rodriguez]

Hello guys/gals, 

I am currently working with the latest release of the API (0.1.3). 

Here is my code snippet: 

Map<String, Attachment> doc = __couchDbClientPt.find(Document.class, planId).getAttachments();

return doc.get("connectivityMatrix.json").getData();

When I try to get the attachment content through Attachment.getData() I am always getting null in return. 

Is there any other way to retrieve attachment data or is that the API does not provide the means for it? Apart from the byteArray-to-file reconstruction of attachments...

Thank you in advance

Daniel

By default, attachment data isn't returned, you need to request it along with the document.
The way to do that, by adding a parameter to find(), eg:

Map<String, Attachment> doc = __couchDbClientPt.find(Document.class, planId, new Params().attachments()).getAttachments();
