does jquery.couch actually work ?
I believe no. I have yet to see a working snippet of code where it runs
without couchapp (and not even sure with couchapp )
then there is broken documentation - take the Bradley Holt blog - nicely
organized but not accurate. Take the example of user signup.
$.couch.signup(userDoc, "secretpassword"), {
success: ......
}
The resulting http request is listed as:
PUT http://localhost:5984/_users/org.couchdb.user%3Abob
but where is the actual username and password in the http request ?
I can accept that we might be missing something, but can anyone vouch
that they actually have this working in a non couchapp app?

There's nothing particularly hard in looking at what's going on over the wire. For instance, the Net tab in Firebug (or any other browser debugging tool) will show you the request, with full headers, body, etc.
I have yet to experiment with that, but the Couch API is also a great match for Angular's bindings and deferreds.

Also, to be aware, there are other light js libs for access couchdb. A
new favorite of mine, courtesy of Caolan McMahon, is couchr, which
can be found here:
http://jamjs.org/packages/#/details/couchr
Works the same in the browser and in node.
There is also browser-request: from iriscouch.
https://github.com/iriscouch/browser-request
I am sure there are others as well.
The above are a little more modern then jquery.couch.js Hope that helps

I know there's a problem with the cross domain, however, having real
trouble getting around it. Currently the nginx config I listed is not
working.
I'm puzzled by the "/_couch" prefix (what does the underscore do ?) how
does that change the cross domain problem ?

John,
It seems you are serving your html from port 80, but it is trying to
access couchdb on port 5984. That is a cross domain request.
using couch.jquery.js I think what you can do is fiddle with
$.couch.urlPrefix = "/_couch";

Do you get anything in either CouchDB or nginx logs?

Yup, you'll need to proxy CouchDB so that everything appears to come from the same server. http://wiki.apache.org/couchdb/Nginx_As_a_Reverse_Proxy might be a decent place to start.

Hey John,
http://bradley-holt.com/2011/07/couchdb-jquery-plugin-reference/ might be a useful reference for you.
I've got a working example that I'll put online tomorrow. It uses backbone Events to communicate when someone logs in/out, but if you don't need/want that removing it should be easy enough.
Cheers

The hash is not needed for Couchdb 1.2, but is required for <1.2. (be aware that Cloudant has Couchdb v 1.0.2)

no not in Backbone, just in our own html5 and jquery code. Going thru
the jquery.couch lib and futon lib, I started to document the needed
calls - still not quite there - for example, to create a user (reader
type) do you still have to create the password hash first or does couch
now do that ....

You're trying to do login/session/logout in Backbone? Give me a few days
and I can write up an example app.

actually that's what we are looking at now - just having trouble trying
to run login, session, logout from the REST call

Hi John,
I've got jquery.couch.js working in a few places, I'll try to extract a
gist on teh train home tomorrow. If you can put your code somewhere
(ideally in a live setting, like Iris or Cloudant) I'm happy to take a look
at it.
That said, jquery has moved on a lot more than jquery.couch.js, and
jquery.couch.js is starting to show it's age. All jquery.couch.js really is
is an aide-mémoire for the CouchDB API, and learning that is more useful
IMHO since it's portable across languages. Recently I've been just using
jquery calls to Couch directly without the jquery.couch.js in the middle.
It works well, and there's one less moving part. Hooking up something like
Backbone is also simple and can be done without any additional
libraries/connectors.
Cheers
Simon

Check out Futon's source. That is about as canonical an example as you're
going to get.

okay, but this is missing (ie left for reader to figure out - which is
difficult - we're trying to work thru all this but examples would make
it easier
I can accept that we might be missing something, but can anyone vouch

any example ? gist ? snippet?
