workaround for url rewrite formatting
Hi,
I'm on v1.0.2 of couchdb and having problems formatting rewrite queries correctly. I keep getting %22 (double quotes) around numeric tokens extracted from the url.
I saw this fix which will be included in v1.1 and allows for the proper formatting of extracted tokens https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COUCHDB-1074
But since I can't use the development branch, can anyone recommend a workaround?
Thanks :)

I can't speak to anything other than that in terms of usage. The
commit to the 1.1.x branch was r1128189 if anyone wants to update the
docs at [1].

The URL referenced earlier [1] is from CouchBase and is not at all the
official release notes for Apache CouchDB. You'll want to contact them
directly if they have an error or if perhaps they have downstream
patches relating to the rewriter.

Damn, looks like I wasted my time then. There should be an
announcement and an update to the release notes so others don't do the
same.

I just tested out exactly this rewrite in CouchDB 1.1.0 and it fails
to match the URL "/2011-06-07". I've implemented a client-side version
of this rewriter in Kanso (http://kansojs.org) that works, but there's
not much point me pushing it until it also works on CouchDB.
Has anybody got this working?

The improved URL Rewriter in CouchDB 1.1 now supports variables within a path, so the earlier URL is now possible written as /<year>-<month>-<day>. The same format is used with the "to" and "from" portions of a rewrite rule, so the above example would look something like this (if documents were delimited with colons rather than dashes):

I don't remember to have written that.

There is a brief description near the bottom of this page
http://docs.couchbase.org/couchdb-release-1.1/index.html
More flexible URL rewriter
Prior to CouchDB 1.1 the rewriter could only collect variable information delimited by forward slashes. URL's like /:year/:month/:day was possible, but not /:year-:month-:day. The improved URL Rewriter in CouchDB 1.1 now supports variables within a path, so the earlier URL is now possible written as /<year>-<month>-<day>. The same format is used with the "to" and "from" portions of a rewrite rule, so the above example would look something like this (if documents were delimited with colons rather than dashes):
{
"from":"/<year>-<month>-<day>",
"to": "_show/calendar/<year>:<month>:<day>"
}

Thanks, is there a description somewhere of what "More flexible URL
rewriter" means in the release notes?
Thanks
