Hello everybody,
my name is Alexander Thomas. I'm a freelance web developer from Vienna, Austria.
After playing around with CouchDb a bit I finally decided to give it a try in a
first real life project. So in case my question is trivial, don't hesitate to
RTFM me and give me a (helpful) pointer.
I have a document type called 'story'. A story can have multiple sections as
embedded documents, stored in an array.
{
"_id": "story_14c2f7f84c9701",
"_rev": "4-abf15eac70a379c9a60b889c9e73357e",
"type": "story",
"title": "Untitled",
"modified": "2010-07-03 20:27:35",
"sections": [
{
"text": "test 1",
"author_id": id_of_author
},
{
"text": "test 2",
"author_id": id_of_author
}
]
}
Each section may have a different author so I store authors in different
documents to avoid duplicates.
Reading the available documentation I was able to connect the story itself to
an author but what I would like to have is a view, which collects one / all
stories + the information of the author for each embedded section.
Thank you in advance.
Regards,
Alex
