Design Document Size
Hi All,
Is there a way to view the file size (in kb, mb, gb, etc.) of a design
document view either in Futon or through the command line? My
database.couch files are in /var/lib/couchdb/0.10.0. I'm running
couchdb on Ubuntu 10 through Amazon ec2.
Thanks!
Lauren

Hi,
I think the .dsgname_design is a directory containing the actual view
files (based on a checksum of the design document).
The 4096 bytes you are seeing is probably the 'size' of the directory
entry on disk itself.
Best regards,
Jeroen Janssen

The file size within the .dsgnname_design files for both of my very
large design documents is 4096 bytes. I am assuming this is just some
sort of heading rather than the entire view itself. Based on what I'd
read, I thought a large view could drastically increasing the size of
a database. Is it being stored somewhere else or is this just how a
design document works?

Thanks! I was almost there... I just didn't ls for hidden files.

The view files are in a folder called views in the db folder that contains
the db files. Futon can't help you here but a simple stat check can give
your app the info or an ls command on the command line.
