CouchDB and Rust blogs
Hi All,
I've been playing around with the rust language quite a bit recently and
using it to write some rust related side projects. I've recently finished a
CouchDB View Server written in Rust using V8. Here is a blog post about
that details the new View Server protocol for CouchDB 4.x and my Rust
implementation
https://www.garrensmith.com/blogs/fortuna-rs-couchdb-view-server
A few weeks back I also wrote about a miniCouchDB implementation I wrote in
Rust during a Cloudant Hack week.

Cheers
Garren

Wow that's very cool man, I'll read it and share it with my fellow
rustaceans!

Hi Jan,
Thanks, one of my first attempts https://github.com/garrensmith/fortuna was
embedding v8 as a nif. It was my first nif and the implementation is wrong,
but it did prove it was possible and something we could consider going
forward. The one thing I'm not 100% sure of is moving V8 across threads.
Paul and I have had a discussion around that and we can't find good
evidence on whether moving V8 across threads is a good or bad idea. I
happened to speak to Ryan Dahl about it in the deno discord channel and he
recommended against it. I think a good starting point would be to use
https://github.com/rusterlium/rustler to create a nif and then use some of
the code from fortuna.
Also, I'm not sure embedding Deno would work. The Deno isolate is designed
to run in an async environment, so I think rather using standard v8 would
be better.
Cheers
Garren

Congrats Garren, this is really cool! :)
One related question: have you pondered embedding a JS engine into Erlang itself as well?
