Couchbase JRuby Model

Unofficial port of Couchbase Ruby Model to JRuby. The only changes in this gem over the original is to load the (also) unnoficial Couchbase JRuby Client.

Rails integration

To generate config you can use rails generate couchbase:config:

$ rails generate couchbase:config
create  config/couchbase.yml

It will generate this config/couchbase.yml for you:

common: &common
  hostname: localhost
  port: 8091
  username:
  password:
  pool: default

development:
  <<: *common
  bucket: couchbase_tinyurl_development

test:
  <<: *common
  bucket: couchbase_tinyurl_test

# set these environment variables on your production server
production:
  hostname: <%= ENV['COUCHBASE_HOST'] %>
  port: <%= ENV['COUCHBASE_PORT'] %>
  username: <%= ENV['COUCHBASE_USERNAME'] %>
  password: <%= ENV['COUCHBASE_PASSWORD'] %>
  pool: <%= ENV['COUCHBASE_POOL'] %>
  bucket: <%= ENV['COUCHBASE_BUCKET'] %>

Examples

require 'couchbase/model'

class Post < Couchbase::Model
  attribute :title
  attribute :body
  attribute :draft
end

p = Post.new(:id => 'hello-world',
             :title => 'Hello world',
             :draft => true)
p.save
p = Post.find('hello-world')
p.body = "Once upon the times...."
p.save
p.update(:draft => false)
Post.bucket.get('hello-world')  #=> {"title"=>"Hello world", "draft"=>false,
                                #    "body"=>"Once upon the times...."}

You can also let the library generate the unique identifier for you:

p = Post.create(:title => 'How to generate ID',
                :body => 'Open up the editor...')
p.id        #=> "74f43c3116e788d09853226603000809"

There are several algorithms available. By default it use :sequential algorithm, but you can change it to more suitable one for you:

class Post < Couchbase::Model
  attribute :title
  attribute :body
  attribute :draft

  uuid_algorithm :random
end

You can define connection options on per model basis:

class Post < Couchbase::Model
  attribute :title
  attribute :body
  attribute :draft

  connect :port => 80, :bucket => 'blog'
end

Validations

There are all methods from ActiveModel::Validations accessible in context of rails application:

class Comment < Couchbase::Model
  attribute :author, :body

  validates_presence_of :author, :body
end

Views (aka Map/Reduce indexes)

Views are stored in models directory in subdirectory named after the model (to be precious design_document attribute of the model class). Here is an example of directory layout for Link model with three views.

.
└── app
    └── models
        ├── link
        │   ├── total_count
        │   │   ├── map.js
        │   │   └── reduce.js
        │   ├── by_created_at
        │   │   └── map.js
        │   └── by_view_count
        │       └── map.js
        └── link.rb

To generate view you can use yet another generator rails generate couchbase:view DESIGNDOCNAME VIEWNAME. For example how total_count view could be generated:

$ rails generate couchbase:view link total_count

The generated files contains useful info and links about how to write map and reduce functions, you can take a look at them in the templates directory.

In the model class you should declare accessible views:

class Post < Couchbase::Model
  attribute :title
  attribute :body
  attribute :draft
  attribute :view_count
  attribute :created_at, :default => lambda { Time.now }

  view :total_count, :by_created_at, :by_view_count
end

And request them later:

Post.by_created_at(:include_docs => true).each do |post|
  puts post.title
end

Post.by_view_count(:include_docs => true).group_by(&:view_count) do |count, posts|
  p "#{count} -> #{posts.map{|pp| pp.inspect}.join(', ')}"
end
