view question

Hi all,

I'm trying to get a simple view going.  Can anybody tell me what I'm
doing wrong here?  I'm using Apache CouchDB 0.8.0-incubating.

altais:~$ curl  -H 'Content-Type:application/json' --data
'function(doc) { emit(null, doc); }'
http://localhost:5984/mydb/_temp_view

returns:

{"error":"EXIT","reason":"{function_clause,[{cjson,tokenize,\n
                [\"function(doc) { emit(null, doc); }\",\n
             {decoder,unicode,null,1,1,any}]},\n
{cjson,decode1,2},\n                  {cjson,json_decode,2},\n
         {couch_httpd,handle_db_request,3},\n
{couch_httpd,handle_request,2},\n
{mochiweb_http,headers,4},\n                  {proc_lib,init_p,5}]}"}

Thanks in advance,
Paul.

You now longer just send the map function code, you need
to send a proper JSON object see "Ad Hoc Views" at
http://wiki.apache.org/couchdb/HttpViewApi and "View Definition
Changes" at http://wiki.apache.org/couchdb/BreakingChanges

Try replacing data:

	 --data '{"map" : "function(doc) { emit(null, doc); }"}'
