Re: delete key value pair?

[Tommy Chheng]

I'm using Ruby/CouchRest

I tried this way but setting it to nil only sets the value to null
Person.all.each do |p|
 p[:name] = "#{p[:first_name]} #{p[:last_name]}"
 p[:first_name] = nil
 p[:last_name] = nil
 p.save
end

if i don't assign the first_name, it'll just be the previous value.

Thanks,
Tommy

Sure, but it'd just be a regular document update (PUT), requiring you to GET the entire document first, so you've got the rest of the fields and an up-to-date revision.

Which language/library are you using? Perhaps someone here will produce an example.

How can i delete just a key-value pair but not the whole document?

Ex: { "first_name": "blah", "last_name": "last"} , i want to delete the kv pair "first_name": "blah" but not the whole document.

Thanks,
