# CouchDB2

CouchDB v2.x Python 3 interface in a single module.
Also a command line tool; [see below](#command-line-tool).

Most, but not all, features of this module work with CouchDB version < 2.0.

## Installation

```
$ pip install couchdb2
```

This module relies on `requests`: http://docs.python-requests.org/en/master/

## News

- 1.8.4
  - Added **get_bulk**: Get several documents in one operation.

## Example code

```python
import couchdb2

server = couchdb2.Server()   # Arguments required according to local setup
db = server.create('test')

doc1 = {'_id': 'myid', 'name': 'mydoc', 'level': 4}
db.put(doc1)
doc = db['myid']
assert doc == doc1

doc2 = {'name': 'another', 'level': 0}
db.put(doc2)
print(doc2)
# {'_id': '66b5...', '_rev': '1-f3ac...', 'name': 'another', 'level': 0}

db.put_design('mydesign', 
              {"views":
               {"name": {"map": "function (doc) {emit(doc.name, null);}"}
               }
              })
result = db.view('mydesign', 'name', key='another', include_docs=True)
assert len(result) == 1
print(result[0].doc)         # Same printout as above, using OrderedDict

db.destroy()
```

### compact
```python
db.compact(finish=False, callback=None)
```
Compact the CouchDB database by rewriting the disk database file
and removing old revisions of documents.

If `finish` is True, then return only when compaction is done.
In addition, if defined, the function `callback(seconds)` is called
every second until compaction is done.

### compact_design
```python
db.compact_design(designname)
```
Compact the view indexes associated with the named design document.

### view_cleanup
```python
db.view_cleanup()
```
Remove unnecessary view index files due to changed views in
design documents of the database.

### get
```python
doc = db.get(id, rev=None, revs_info=False, default=None)
```
Return the document with the given id, or the `default` value if not found.

### get_bulk
```python
doc = db.get_bulk(ids)
```
Get several documents in one operation, given a list of document ids,
each of which is a string (the document id), or a tuple of the
document id and revision.

Returns a list of documents. If no document found for a specified id
or (id, rev), the value None is returned in that slot of the list.

### put
```python
db.put(doc)
```
Insert or update the document.

If the document is already in the database, the `_rev` item must
be present in the document; its value will be updated.

If the document does not contain an item `_id`, one will be added
having a UUID4 value. The `_rev` item will also be added.

### update
```python
db.update(docs)
```
Perform a bulk update or insertion of the given documents using a
single HTTP request.

The return value of this method is a list containing a tuple for every
element in the `docs` sequence. Each tuple is of the form
`(success, docid, rev_or_exc)`, where `success` is a boolean
indicating whether the update succeeded, `docid` is the ID of the
document, and `rev_or_exc` is either the new document revision, or
an exception instance (e.g. `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.Document` objects.

`docs` : a sequence of dictionaries or `Document` objects, or
objects providing a `items()` method that can be used to convert
them to a dictionary.

Returns an iterable (list) over the resulting documents.

### delete
```python
db.delete(doc)
```
Delete the document.

### purge
```python
db.purge(docs)
```
Perform purging (complete removing) of the given documents.

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.

### get_designs
```python
data = db.get_designs()
```
Return the design documents for the database.

CouchDB version >= 2.2.

### get_design
```python
data = db.get_design(designname)
```
Get the named design document.

### put_design
```python
db.put_design(designname, doc, rebuild=True)
```
Insert or update the design document under the given name.

If the existing design document is identical, no action is taken and
False is returned, else the document is updated and True is returned.

If `rebuild` is True, force view indexes to be rebuilt after update. 
This may take some time.

Example of doc:
```
  {"views":
    {"name":
      {"map": "function (doc) {emit(doc.name, null);}"},
     "name_sum":
      {"map": "function (doc) {emit(doc.name, 1);}",
       "reduce": "_sum"},
     "name_count":
      {"map": "function (doc) {emit(doc.name, null);}",
       "reduce": "_count"}
  }}
```

More info: http://docs.couchdb.org/en/latest/api/ddoc/common.html

### view
```python
result = db.view(designname, viewname, key=None, keys=None,
                 startkey=None, endkey=None, skip=None, limit=None,
                 sorted=True, descending=False,
                 group=False, group_level=None, reduce=None,
                 include_docs=False)
```
Return a [ViewResult](#viewresult) object, containing
[Row](#row) objects in the attribute `rows` (a list).

If `include_docs` is True, then `reduce` is forced to False.

### get_indexes
```python
data = db.get_indexes()
```
Return a list of all indexes in the database.

CouchDB version >= 2.0.

### put_index
```python
db.put_index(fields, ddoc=None, name=None, selector=None)
```
Store a Mango index specification. CouchDB v2.x only.

- `fields` is a list of fields to index.
- `ddoc` is the design document name. Generated if none given.
- `name` is the name of the index. Generated if none given.
- `selector` is a partial filter selector, which may be omitted.

Returns a dictionary with items `id` (design document name; sic!),
`name` (index name) and `result` (`created` or `exists`).

CouchDB version >= 2.0.

### find
```python
data = db.find(selector, use_index=None, limit=None, skip=None, sort=None,
               fields=None, bookmark=None, update=None)
```
Select documents according to the Mango index selector.

Returns a dictionary with items `docs`, `warning`, `execution_stats`
and `bookmark`.

CouchDB version >= 2.0.

### explain
```python
data = db.explain(selector, use_index=None, limit=None, skip=None, sort=None,
                  fields=None, bookmark=None, update=None)

CouchDB version >= 2.0.

### get_attachment
```python
fileobj = db.get_attachment(doc, filename)
```
Return a file-like object containing the content of the attachment.

### put_attachment
```python
rev = db.put_attachment(doc, content, filename=None, content_type=None)
```
`content` is a string or a file-like object.
Return the new revision of the document.
The revision in the input `doc` is **not** changed.

If no filename, then an attempt is made to get it from content object.

### delete_attachment
```python
rev = db.delete_attachment(doc, filename)
```
Delete the attachment. Return the new revision of the document.
The revision in the input `doc` is **not** changed.

### dump
```python
(ndocs, nfiles) = db.dump(filepath, callback=None)
```
Dump the entire database to a tar file.

If defined, the function `callback(ndocs, nfiles)` is called 
every 100 documents.

If the filepath ends with `.gz`, then the tar file is gzip compressed.
The `_rev` item of each document is kept.

A tuple `(ndocs, nfiles)` is returned.

### undump
```python
(ndocs, nfiles) = db.undump(filepath, callback=None)
```
Load the tar file, which must have been produced by `dump`.

If defined, the function `callback(ndocs, nfiles)` is called 
every 100 documents.

NOTE: The documents are just added to the database, ignoring any
`_rev` items.

A tuple `(ndocs, nfiles)` is returned.
