including external javascript libs
Hi,
I am trying to figure out the best way to include js libs in my couch
show,view,etc functions. I just realized the the examples in the couch book
with the !code and !json macros are specific to CouchApp. For instance I
ned to parse some ISO 8601 dates, and have a little date.js script that I'd
like to include in my functions.
Thanks In Advance

This doesn't work, because then if your application is replicated to a "standard" couch, it breaks. The robust solution is to include all your JavaScript code in the design document.

Is there a way to 'install' javascript files on the server so they
would be available to map/reduce functions? Can they be added to the
directory /share/couchdb/server ?
http://documentcloud.github.com/underscore/
Would be a handy library to have around.

the !code macro simply replaces itself with the content of the target. if you don't want to use couchapp, you have to insert your code yourself. "loading" from an external resource is not allowed since views wouldn't be side effect free (couch would not notice if the external code has been changed).
For loading code in show, list, update and validation functions you can use CommonJS-style modules (see http://wiki.apache.org/couchdb/CommonJS_Modules )
