Hello everyone, been stalking the mailing list for a while and thought this
might be worthy of a post as I was asked to solve it, yet, I couldn't!
Let's take the classic blog example document with the following fields/values:
"_id": "1f2fc3955b91aed5e7369f0b0ba8214e",
"_rev": "1226709986",
"Author": "Bradford",
"Type": "Post",
"Body": "Just mentioning this for a sample blog post.",
"PostedDate": "2008-07-02T23:22:12-04:00",
"Subject": "My Fine Blog Post",
"Tags": ["octopus","hockey","squidward","bradford","recreation"]
Next, I'd like to find each blog post that contains ANY of the following tags
["octopus","hockey"]. Now, generally speaking this isn't so bad. We could
write a simple view:
function (doc) {
if (doc.Type == 'Post') {
for (var i = 0;i < doc.tags.length; i++) {
emit(doc.tags[i],doc);
}
}
}
We would get back each one of our tags as a key, yea? Only if we supplied one
at a time. So how does one go about supplying a range, array (not sure what
we'd call it here) of keys to be searched on?
http://...?key=["octopus","hockey"] maybe? I'm unsure of the plan of attack
for such a thing. Maybe I'm just going about it in the wrong direction. Any
thoughts?
