Getting started with !LotusScript and the CouchDB API.

This is an example of wrapper classes that use LS2J to send requests to a CouchDB server from !LotusScript. This could be useful to move data between Domino databases and CouchDB databases. The !LotusScript code roughly tracks the structure of the Ruby code.

== Advanced API ==

This !LotusScript API for couch is designed to be familiar to !LotusScript developers. It wraps up all the communication with the CouchDB server, all the JSON code and looks quite a lot like dealing with documents in a domino database. This is very much a work in progress.

To copy a Notes database to a CouchDB database you might use the following code in an agent:

{{{
Sub Initialize
  Dim doc As couchdoc
  Dim ses As New NotesSession
  Dim db As notesdatabase
  Set db=ses.currentdatabase
  Dim cserver As couchserver
  Set cserver=New couchserver("http://localhost","5984","")	'replace with your server location
  Set cdb=New couchdb(db.name,cserver)
  If Not cdb.exists Then
    cdb.create
  End If
  Dim ndoc As NotesDocument
  Dim dbdocs As notesdocumentcollection
  Set dbdocs=db.alldocuments
  Set ndoc=dbdocs.GetFirstDocument
  While Not ndoc Is Nothing
    Set doc=cdb.createdocument(ndoc.UniversalID)
    Forall i In ndoc.Items
      Call doc.additem(i.name,i.text)
    End Forall
    doc.save
    Set ndoc=dbdocs.GetNextDocument(ndoc)
  Wend
End Sub
}}}

Copy the code below into the declarations section of the agent:
