an Elixir CouchDB client

Couchex

A native Elixir CouchDb client

Love CouchDB, love Elixir, however no current client for my beloved DB yet. This is work in process and currently only implements the most basic commands, it will (hopefully) be a full featured CouchDB client at some stage.

It is built on hackney and Poison and hopefully is fast. Future versions will implement worker pools for additional performance.

This is based on the Perl client Store-CouchDB.

Installation

First, add Couchex to your mix.exs dependencies:

def deps do
  [{:couchex, github: "norbu09/couchex"}]
  end

Then, update your dependencies:

  $ mix deps.get

Usage

    iex> {:ok, doc} = Couchex.Client.get(database, doc_id)
    iex> {:ok, res} = Couchex.Client.put(database, doc)
