LoveSeat: An Alternative to CouchDB Futon
Even if Windows only (note: check the comment thread for more details), it is exciting to see tools added to the CouchDB toolkit. And I do agree that sometimes instead of trying to bend an existing tool do the job you want it can be easier to build your own. Just think of it this way: it is in fact the whole philosophy behind NoSQL: instead of bending existing tools, we got these exciting new tools to our toolbox.
LoveSeat’s goals are:
getting out of utf-8 cr-lf hell, avoid having to escape quote strings, and avoid having to manually tweak json docs.
With the current version the following features are supported:
- connect to a database
- browse the databases
- design documents within a database
- CRUD design docs
- call views
In case you want to try out LoveSeat, source code is available on ☞ GitHub
