View for multiple IDs

[Martin Hewitt <ma...@gmail.com>]

Hi all,

How would I create a view  to retrieve documents with the IDs (i.e.
non-numeric, non-sequential):

["asdf", "powsf", "aaaa"]

I would like the three documents that match these IDs, is this doable
in one view or should I just retrieve them individually?

Thanks,

Martin

Though I wonder what purpose it solves to make a view specifically for three
documents only, but if so, you could check for doc._id in the view function
to be one of those names and emit(doc._id, doc) in that case, doing nothing
otherwise

you can query the view with a post containing a json document like:

{"keys": ["key1", "key2", ...]} See http://wiki.apache.org/couchdb/HTTP_view_API#Querying_Options
