Hi,
first, couchdb is just beautiful! :) (using 0.8.1-incubating from
MacPorts)
I am very new, and have read the available docs and several blog posts.
Can you drill into a doc with a simple GET?
Say I have a doc like:
{"_id": "a", "_rev": "123", "foo":{"bar": 1}, "big-ass-prop": "huge
amount of stuff"}
Ideally I would like to be able to call something like:
http://127.0.0.1:5984/mydb/a/foo
to return {"bar":1} and avoid downloading "big-ass-prop"
Is this or something like it possible?
(I realize "foo" is a 'sibling' of the _id in the document, but it is
probably treated more like a parent in the DB?)
If not possible, is it possible to create some kind of default action/
filter/? that does something like the above? That is, reads the
request uri, recognizes it is a document and that there is extra path
info which should be used to resolve a property.
thanks,
-Rob
