API CouchDB Adapter

Requirements

DADI API Version 2.0.0 or greater

Tests

To run the test suite you'll need a CouchDB server running on localhost with the default port of 5984. If you've changed the default port, modify the test configuration file at config/couchdb.test.json. This file is created from config/couchdb.test.json.sample the first time the test suite is run.

Run the tests:

$ git clone https://github.com/dadi/api-couchdb.git
$ cd api-couchdb
$ npm test

Configuration Files

Configuration settings are defined in JSON files within a /config directory at the root of your API application. DADI API has provision for multiple configuration files, one for each environment that your API is expected to run under: development, qa and production.

The naming convention for CouchDB configuration files follows the format couchdb.<environment>.json

For example:

couchdb.development.json
couchdb.qa.json
couchdb.production.json
