Hi, I'm mostly stuck on the "JSON meets Rhino" part. I have tried for a while to grok it, and it's not coming. Specifically, I want to fetch the document from couchdb (as JSON, obviously) and then pass it to a user-defined function written in Javascript, and then index the return value. This will allow custom filtering.
Additionally, I can index the output of views fairly easily, Paul's original couchdb-lucene did that, so I could pinch from there. I suspect all three kinds of indexing are useful including the current index-everything approach. I'm swamped with 'real' work right now which is why progress has slowed. One notable change is that it compiles under 1.5 for those OS X users out there. B. On Tue, Feb 24, 2009 at 3:51 PM, Adam Groves <[email protected]> wrote: > Thanks for the reply Paul.
