-------------------------------------
Summary: Feature request: _all_docs?exclude_ddocs=true
Key: COUCHDB-2227
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COUCHDB-2227
Project: CouchDB
Issue Type: Wish
Security Level: public (Regular issues)
Reporter: Nolan Lawson
Design docs are included in {{\_all_docs}} results, which is by design (hyuk
hyuk). However, this can be surprising and unwanted behavior for new users,
and plus, sometimes it's tricky to exclude them, e.g. if your docids come both
before and after the {{_}} character:
{code:javascript}
{"total_rows":6,"offset":0,"rows":[
{"id":"Bar","key":"Bar","value":{"rev":"1-967a00dff5e02add41819138abb3284d"}},
{"id":"Foo","key":"Foo","value":{"rev":"1-967a00dff5e02add41819138abb3284d"}},
{"id":"_design/temp","key":"_design/temp","value":{"rev":"1-ee20bd300ce7ffa18e9ef1144fa50fd4"}},
{"id":"_design/temp2","key":"_design/temp2","value":{"rev":"1-9b626494fef9a884a383345540c29e97"}},
{"id":"bar","key":"bar","value":{"rev":"1-967a00dff5e02add41819138abb3284d"}},
{"id":"foo","key":"foo","value":{"rev":"1-967a00dff5e02add41819138abb3284d"}}
]}
{code}
What I would like is a query param like {{exclude_ddocs}}, which defaults to
false and would only return non-design documents, but otherwise function
exactly the same. What {{offset}} and {{total_rows}} would do in this case is
up to you.
Workaround: The best workaround is to do two separate queries, one with the
parameters {{endkey=%22_design/%22}} and the other with
{{startkey=%22_design0%22}}. But this is not particularly elegant.
