Couchdb update without rev

If you need to connect to a database with an unverified or self-signed SSL certificate, you can re-initialize your ConnectionPool as follows only applicable for Python 2.

If the server is configured to delay commits, or previous requests used the special X-Couch-Full-Commit: false header to disable immediate commits, this method can be used to ensure that any non-committed changes are committed to physical storage. Without an argument, this will try to prune all old revisions from the database.

With an argument, it will compact the index cache for all views in the design document specified. Note that it is generally better to avoid the create method and instead generate document IDs on the client side.

This is due to the fact that the underlying HTTP POST method is not idempotent, and an automatic retry due to a problem somewhere on the networking stack may cause multiple documents being created in the database. To avoid such problems you can generate a UUID on the client side. Python since version 2. In the case the document has been updated since it was retrieved, this method will raise a ResourceConflict exception.

Without an argument, returns database information. With an argument, return information for the given design document. Note that this may require a request to the server unless the name has already been cached by the info method. Uses a single HTTP request to purge all given documents.

Purged documents do not leave any meta-data in the storage and are not replicated. The return value of this method is a list containing a tuple for every element in the documents sequence. ResourceConflict if the update failed. If an object in the documents list is not a dictionary, this method looks for an items method that can be used to convert the object to a dictionary.

Effectively this means you can also use this method with mapping. For example:. This is significantly more efficient than using a JavaScript filter function and is the recommended option if filtering on document attributes only.

If the selector object is missing from the request body, the error message is similar to the following example:. If the selector object is not a well-formed JSON object, the error message is similar to the following example:.

If the selector object does not contain a valid selection expression, the error message is similar to the following example:. If the map function emits anything for the processed document it counts as accepted and the changes event emits to the feed.

For most use-practice cases filter functions are very similar to map ones, so this feature helps to reduce amount of duplicated code. You need to be sure, that they are ready to handle documents with alien structure without panic.

Moreover, you cannot make such filters dynamic e. Table of Contents User Guides 1. Introduction 2. Replication 3. Design Documents 4. Best Practices Administration Guides 1. Installation 2. Setup 3.
