Drupal + CouchDB
Earlier today, Tim Milwood authored a post detailing the work he’s done with Drupal and CouchDB to expose the compatible endpoints with the PHP-based CMS.
Releases
grunt-couchdb 0.1.0 (Node) – The best Grunt plugin ever.
Major Discussions
make (see thread)
Jan Lehnardt is proposing shipping CouchDB 2.0 sooner than later and adding integration with all the different operating systems as needed in order to create an intermediate solution allowing to ship 2.0 sooner.
db/_all_conflicts (see thread)
Robert Kowalski and co have a hackweek to work on creating a list of conflicts in Fauxton for every database (provided by CouchDB) to give users better abilities to handle conflict resolution.
Calculating Revision IDs outside erlang… (see thread)
In this discussion Michael Fair recommends changing the term_to_binary computation to use the {minor_version, 1} option in the rev_id calculation, to assist with replicating the md5 for the revision id of documents with floats – which currently is causing a headache.

CouchDB Use Cases, Questions and Answers
Use Case:
- CouchDB dev/run for TLS for erlang distribution (RSA or ECC), Robert Newson
- AvanceDB: An in-memory database implementing a large subset of the CouchDB REST API. AvanceDB has blistering fast document lookup and map/reduce performance. If you are currently using CouchDB and struggle with view build times then AvanceDB should be a seamless replacement for your view workload.

Time to relax!
- “Watching old Soviet military parades may not seem like the best use of your time, and to be honest, it probably isn’t. But there’s something weirdly transfixing about them. It’s really easy to get drawn in by the pomp and circumstance, to get hypnotized by the bugles and drums and rhythmic marching.” – Relax with hours and hours of Soviet military parades
- “…making time for stress release is more important than you might think. According to the Mayo Clinic, the more regularly we feel stressed, the harder it is for our bodies to return to our normal ‘non-stressed’ state, meaning that our bodies can become full of stress hormones like adrenaline and cortisol even in low stress situations. This flood of hormones can lead to high blood pressure, sleep problems, heart issues, and even certain forms of cancers.” – The 9 Best Relaxation Videos on YouTube
- “I find even pubs to be overwhelming, so nightclubs are just awful with all the noise, sound and crowded people. It’s much easier and more comfortable for me to talk to my friends on Skype or Facebook than to force myself into an uncomfortable and intimidating situation.” – ‘I’d rather chill in and relax’: why millennials don’t go clubbing
- “Stress and anxiety strike almost everyone from time-to-time. It can be made worse by lack of sleep, the wrong mindset and unwanted intrusive thoughts. The collection of articles below describe how to sleep better, change unhelpful thought processes and tackle everyday stress and anxiety.” – Unwind: The Science of Rest, Relaxation and Sleep
- “Sleep is one of humanity’s great unifiers. It binds us to one another, to our ancestors, to our past, and to the future. No matter who we are, we share a common need for sleep. Though this need has been a constant throughout human history, our relationship to sleep, and our understanding of its vital benefits, has gone through dramatic ups and downs.” – The Sleep Revolution: Transforming Your Life, One Night at a Time
