Anyone had any experience with CouchDB? There's been a bit of
discussion about it on the NZ Web Dev group.
http://groups.google.com/group/nz-web-dev
It would be an interesting presentation for WellRailed sometime!

Hi Nigel,
CouchDB is really great (if it fits)! I'm using it for my website and
it's being used as part of the backend for iwantmyname.com (I wrote
the iPhone app for them).
It's a bit cumbersome to overcome the relational table model mindeset
but if the document model is a good fit (and more often than not it
actually is) Couch is a really nice solution. Especially the
replication feature makes it easy to collaborate and to keep different
servers in sync (production, stage, development). You can just easily
work on your local CouchDB instance and then replicate your changes to
another machine - really nice.
There are already a few libraries out there that make it easy to use
CouchDB from within Rails:
http://github.com/langalex/couch_potato/tree/master
http://github.com/jchris/couchrest/tree/master
Cheers,
Stefan

This is good to know!
Are you using GlassFish in production deployment ?
There are tons of material available on Rails and GlassFish at:
http://blogs.sun.com/arungupta/tags/rubyonrails+glassfish
Feel free to use them in any manner.

Hm, yeah I suppose I could do that.
There is an erlang user group in Wellington (http://groups.google.com/
group/erlounge-wellington) and CouchDB will be one of the topics of
the next meeting (4th Mar 2009).
Cheers,
Stefan

Just changing the subject back to Meeting again.
Would be great to get a presentation on CouchDB by the way. Am almost
tempted to go to the erlang meet, but haven't programmed in a
functional language since Standard ML... some time ago

Hi all,
I talked to Lenz (runs the Erlang user group here in Wellington) and
we decided to hijack one of the Erlounge meetings (April 1st, 6pm) to
talk about CouchDB.
That meeting is not supposed to be Erlang specific, from Lenz's post
to the NZ-WEDEV list:
==================
what to expect:
we try to give you an insight into CouchDB from an application
developer point of view. we'll neglect the fact that we are a erlang
usergroup for a bit and focus on the language independent development
of applications on top of CouchDB, go into the HTTP interface a bit
and show you how to write views. if you are interested in CouchDB
don't miss it as we are of course there to answer your questions
==================
Cheers,
Stefan
