CouchDB is now very popular and has received support from IBM and has become a sub-project under Apache. CouchDB is developed using Erlang and the installation platform uses Ubuntu, but it should also be available on other Linux platforms

Download the CouchDB installation file first. Go to the CouchDB official website from the source. The version is 0.9.1.

Http://couchdb.apache.org/downloads.html

Because CouchDB is a new project and is not included in the Debian repository, it cannot be found through apt. Therefore, it is compiled and installed in the form of source code package, which is the dependency package of CouchDB.

Sudo apt-get build-dep couchdb

Sudo apt-get install libbench js-dev libicu-dev libcurl4-gnutls-dev libtool

In README of CouchDB, it should be noted that libicu38 is to be installed, but the shitou reported an error saying that Mi was found. Later, apt-file search libicu found that it was not libicu38, instead, there is a libicu36 package. install it.

2. Extract

Tar-zxvf apache-couchdb-0.9.1.tar.gz

3. Start Installation

Cd apache-couchdb-0.9.1

./Configure

Make

Sudo make install

OK. installation is complete.

We recommend that you do not use root to run CouchDB for security reasons.

4. Start couchdb

Sudo couchdb

5. Access: http: // 127.0.0.1: 5984/_ utils/

-B runs the CouchDB service for the background

-D to disable the couchdb Service

The default CouchDB configuration file is in/usr/local/couchdb/etc/couchdb/couch. ini, and the port is 5984.

Now let's test it. shitou uses ruby, and the connected database uses code from the official website. couchdb_ruby.rb:

Require 'net/http'

Module Couch

Class Server
Def initialize (host, port, options = nil)
@ Host = host;
@ Port = port;
@ Options = options;
End

Def delete (uri)
Request (Net: HTTP: Delete. new (uri ))
End

Def get (uri)
Request (Net: HTTP: Get. new (uri ))
End

Def put (uri, json)
Req = Net: HTTP: Put. new (uri)
Req ["content-type"] = "application/json"
Req. body = json
Request (req)
End

Def post (uri, json)
Req = Net: HTTP: Post. new (uri)
Req ["content-type"] = "application/json"
Req. body = json
Request (req)
End

Def request (req)
Res = Net: HTTP. start (@ host, @ port) {| http |
Http. request (req)
}
If (not res. kind_of? (Net: HTTPSuccess ))
Handle_error (req, res)
End
Res
End

Private

Def handle_error (req, res)
E = RuntimeError. new ("# {res. code }:#{ res. message} \ nMETHOD:" +

"# {Req. method} \ nURI: # {req. path} \ n # {res. body }")
Raise e
End
End
End

Start now and you will see the welcome page. All testsuite run success are done!

After CouchDB is started, CouchDB can be used normally. It seems that CouchDB is quite simple and quick to use. It provides almost all the language support and hopes CouchDB will grow better and better.
