Thanks for the response,
The reason I have it the way I do is the same IP can show up multiple
times on different dates and the application allows the user to enter
an IP and a date range and see each time the IP has been entered in
the db.
So 90% of the queries are something like:
emit([doc['ip'], doc['created_at']], null);
http://localhost:5984/foo/_design/test/_view/by_ip_and_created_at?startkey=
["27.0.0.1" ,"2009/08/01"]&endkey=["27.0.0.1","2009/08/16"]
Now the customer wants a page that can show ALL ip's in a given date
range and as a result I was trying to use the views already defined.
So if I need to query data both ways, any suggestion.
Thanks,
Ryan

If I want all of the IP's in a given date range (2009/08/13 -
2009/08/16)
what is the right way to construct the query? The hang-up is
trying to
figure out the right value for the first item in the key to act as
a '*'
That's because you can't. The answer is to swap the order of your
emit, thus:
emit([doc.ip, doc.date], null) -> emit([doc.date, doc.ip], null)
And then use:
http://localhost:5984/foo/_design/test/_view/by_ip_and_created_at?startkey=
["2009/08/13",
null]&endkey=["2009/08/16", {}]
