Hi Daniel

Good to know the state of ShyCouch and CouchCamping - partly because I'm collecting Camping links and checking their current state:
http://dave.camping.sh

I'd like to add any Camping apps you're working on to the above, if they're public.

Dave

Hi David,

Unfortunately, both the ShyCouch and CouchCamping libraries are far from production ready. The former was mostly a learning project, and the latter was.. bad for many more reasons than just that. I don't think either are of any use for examples, or for something you'd try to support in your new project.

However, I'm actively working on some apps where I'll be using Couch as the data store, so I'm happy to work with you on generating some better, more workable examples.

I noticed that you emailed me privately about ShyCouch - sorry for not having replied yet; I'll get back to you a bit later on when I have some more time.

In the meantime, IIRC Jenna has a Couch library that she used in Camping that doesn't have much bloat and is more Ruby-ish.

Hi !
First a short update on the camping "on the fly" hosting. Everything is done and tested on the backend. We are just building the frontend (coded using camping) but we are fighting with the strange behavior of the embedded sqlite database (one of my developers is using windows and things are even less user friendly there) - this is not a big issue for the user database but mostly for users that might want to store sqlite backed up. We are getting there thou !

I have seen some traces of camping working with couchDB using ShyCouch but for an odd reason I cannot get the example working....

NoMethodError: undefined method `CouchDatabase' for ShyCouch:Module

and other errors. Couchcamping gem is also based on shy couch so I guess if one doesn't work the other will be broken too .. ? I wrote to the writer of the lib but before doing more tests has anyone worked on camping + couchdb (even for a quick sample) ? If yes can you email me your working code ? In theory one good thing is that couchdb runs over http so it would be very easy to offer free database and even distribute it across two different severs. I am interested also to get some real cases with
couchdb so that we might use it at work too.

Thanks in advance
David
