Push2Couch

Push to Couch push2couch.sh is a script that allows you to push a flat structure of folders and subfolders into CouchDB as design documents. The script has the following input arguments:

--protocol CouchDB server protocol. Default http
--server   CouchDB server name or IP address. Default localhost
--port     CouchDB server port. Default 5984
--user     CouchDB user name
--password CouchDB password
--db       Database name, it must exists. Mandatory argument
--help     Display help message

The argument for database name --db must be supplied. This folder contains the database structure. Each subfolder in the database folder represnts the name of a desing document. Like in the schema bellow:

test_db
      |_ app
      |_ fullddoc

This means that we may upload into test_db database the following design documents: _design/app, _design/fullddoc. The script will delete them if they already exists in the database.

Inside each folder representing a design document the following subforder structure may exists:

test_db
      |_ app
      |_ attachments
      |      |... [JS CouchApp]
      |      |... [source files]
      |_ ddoc.json

All documents found in attachments folder will be attached to the design document. The JSON structure in ddoc.json will be loaded as such and replace the existing structrure of the desing document. The structure of the JSON file is:

{
	"language": "javascript",
	"views":{
		"viewName":{
			"map":"function(doc){ ... }",
			"reduce":"function(){ ... }"
		},
		"lib":{
			"libName":"function nametoExport(){ ... } 
			exports['libName'] = nameToExport"
		}
	},
	"lists":{
		"listName":"function(head, req){ ... }"
	},
	"updates":{
		"updateName":"function(doc, req){ ... }"
	},
	"shows":{
		"showName":"function(doc, req){ ... }"
	},
	"filters":{
		"filterName":"function(doc, req){ ... }"
	},
	"full_text":{
		"indexName":{
			"index":"function(doc){ ... }"
		}
	},
	"rewrites": [
		{
			"to":"",
			"from":"",
			"method":"",
			"query":{}

		} 
	],
	"validate_doc_update":"function(newDoc, oldDoc, userCtx){ ... }"
}

Proxy Replication

This is an actual couchapp allowing you to replicate small (10MB-100MB) databases behind proxy server. The application uses PouchDB as an intermediate server so the the size limitation is imposed by the browser IndexDB constraints. First step is to replicate remote database to tmp_proxy PouchDB database in browser and then, if replication is successful, to replicate tmp_proxy database to local database.

Install

curl -X PUT http://localhost:5984/proxy-replication
./push2couch.sh --db=proxy-replication

Usage

Open in your browser the follwoing link: http://localhost:5984/proxy-replication/_design/app/index.html and fill-in the remote and local databases to be replicated, then click Replicate button. You will see the replication process log on your page.

Enjoy!

p2c

Is the light version of Push 2 Couch and deals with the attachments only. Please use push2couch.sh instead.

couchapp-wrapper

A wrapper for couchapp to sync CouchDB ddoc back and forth with local repository. This script has a lot of hardcoded names, ports, protocol and has to be adapted for particular usage.
