First, what Herwig said. :-) Second, it's not outside of the realm of possibility that clutch might eventually be able to take .cljs files (or clojure/cljs source inline via clutch macro), invoke the cljs compiler, and use its existing functionality to upload the resulting view functions' code to your couchdb instance.
It certainly would be pleasant to be able to write couch views in Clojure without messing with the view server setup (though clutch 0.2.5 simplifies this significantly). Of course, you'd lose access to the wealth of Clojure (and Java) libraries available with the Clojure view server, so the tradeoffs are multivariate. - Chas On Sep 13, 2011, at 6:24 AM, Herwig Hochleitner wrote: > Just a little remark: Keep in mind, that clutch > https://github.com/ashafa/clutch comes with a CouchDB view server that > can execute Clojure code. > So compiling to JS only seems desirable to me, when you can't > configure an additional view server on your CouchDB. > Performance wise, it should make no big difference, since JS views are > also executed on a separate view server. > > regards > > 2011/9/13 Pepijn de Vos <pepijnde...@gmail.com>: >> While reading about ClojureScript, I saw a couple of mentions of CouchDB as >> a use case for ClojureScript. >> Would anyone care to elaborate?
