Current status of CouchDB and MongoDB support?

[Jim Allman]

Hi all,

I'm currently working in web2py v2.4.5, and it looks like our project would benefit from adding a second, NoSQL database. I've searched the archives of this forum and the history of DAL code in the web2py repo, but it's still not clear to me whether either CouchDB or MongoDB is really "done". Is anyone using this in a production site? Are there major bugs or missing features?

I see that the DAL code is pretty compact, so I might be able to help if it needs attention. But I'm still learning about web2py and NoSQL databases so I'm not ready yet.

Thanks for any guidance,

I have made some enhancements to the original mongodb adapter (see the project issues list). I suppose it has any of the non-experimental sql adapter features. Currently, there's a minor issue with trunk about matching None values in queries and it could be a GAE issue too: (there's a thread about it at web2py-developers)
