[jira] Created: (COUCHDB-324) startkey and endkey don't work with ~ or %7E

startkey and endkey don't work with ~ or %7E
--------------------------------------------

                 Key: COUCHDB-324
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COUCHDB-324
             Project: CouchDB
          Issue Type: Bug
         Environment: svn -r763553
            Reporter: Brian Candler


The following range queries don't work as expected

  startkey="a"&endkey="a~"
  startkey="a"&endkey="a%7E"

(Aside: I was hoping to use "foo" to "foo~" as a reasonably clean way of querying "any key beginning with foo")

The following testcase shows this for "a~", since query doesn't encode it. However I wasn't sure how to test for "a%7E" cleanly.

+  var rows = db.query(queryFun, null, {startkey: "a", endkey: "a~"}).rows;
+  T(rows.length == 3); // a, A, aa
+  var rows = db.query(queryFun, null, {startkey: "a~", endkey: "b"}).rows;
+  T(rows.length == 1 && rows[0].key == "b");
 };

Here are the actual results obtained using curl:

$ curl -X POST -d '{"map":"function(doc) { emit(doc.foo, null); }"}' 'http://127.0.0.1:5984/test_suite_db/_temp_view?startkey="a"&endkey="a~"'
{"total_rows":26,"offset":7,"rows":[
{"id":"7","key":"a","value":null},
{"id":"8","key":"A","value":null}
]}
$ curl -X POST -d '{"map":"function(doc) { emit(doc.foo, null); }"}' 'http://127.0.0.1:5984/test_suite_db/_temp_view?startkey="a"&endkey="a%7E"'
{"total_rows":26,"offset":7,"rows":[
{"id":"7","key":"a","value":null},
{"id":"8","key":"A","value":null}
]}

But what I was expecting was the same as range "a" to "az":

$ curl -X POST -d '{"map":"function(doc) { emit(doc.foo, null); }"}' 'http://127.0.0.1:5984/test_suite_db/_temp_view?startkey="a"&endkey="az"'
{"total_rows":26,"offset":7,"rows":[
{"id":"7","key":"a","value":null},
{"id":"8","key":"A","value":null},
{"id":"9","key":"aa","value":null}
]}

[jira] Resolved: (COUCHDB-324) startkey and endkey don't work with ~ or %7E

Posted by "Brian Candler (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>.
     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COUCHDB-324?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Brian Candler resolved COUCHDB-324.
-----------------------------------

    Resolution: Invalid

This is expected behaviour from the Unicode Collation Algorithm. I have added some notes on this to
http://wiki.apache.org/couchdb/View_collation
