Ottoman is intended to be an easy to use CouchDB API for Mono/.NET applications. Please excuse the mess, this is a new project and we are trying to get everything in order. We will be setting up a project site, forum, and issue tracker. This will be an active open source project and backed by a company. We have big plans for this library. Please feel free to contact one of the contributors if you have any questions as we get everything situated. == A little disclaimer Ottoman at it's current state is pre-alpha software and still under heavy development. Please be aware that important areas such as the public API may see backwards incompatible changes between versions. We will do our best to keep this from happening and the decision to make a breaking change will not be taken lightly. == Repository Organization We recommend reading the great branching model that Vincent Driessen wrote up. It will help in understanding our development process when it comes to Git. * http://nvie.com/git-model == Roadmap We want to go ahead and share the goals of the project and provide the features that Ottoman will include. Some of these features are already done, we just haven't pushed them up yet. Once I get to the first iteration, the development branch will include the features for the next iteration as they are completed. Here are the features of Ottoman being developed: * Automatic serializing/deserialing of your entities. Conventions will be used over configuration for saving/loading of entities. Of course, you will be able to override these conventions by supplying your own. For example, the convention will be to use the property name Id on your entities. You will be able to override this convention by specifying another name of the property if it differs from the default convention. * Using the unit of work pattern and using the document revisions feature of CouchDB. Ottoman will be able to detect changed entities and batch the changes up into one request. This will cut down on the chatter between your application and CouchDB. * Maps RESTful HTTP error codes returned from CouchDB to meaningful exceptions. * Specify an Id generator to use for your entities. The default convention will be a Guid generator. We will also include a Hi/Lo generator. * Seamless integration, no inheriting and overriding of our objects, allowing better separation of your domain and it's persistence store. * LINQ support for querying your views/design documents inside of CouchDB. We will not be supporting temporary views, since they do not perform well. Temporary views are mainly used for prototyping a design document. * Ottoman will be Mono 2.8 and .NET 4.0 compatible. Here's a gist to give you an idea of what the API will look like: * http://gist.github.com/440871 The first iteration will include everything needed to store, retrieve, and delete documents. The second iteration will include everything needed to query your views/design documents inside of CouchDB with LINQ. The third iteration will include everything to store, retrieve, and delete document attachments. This will also be the first alpha. Further iterations will include deleting, replicating, and compacting databases. Basically server and database administration through Ottoman. At which point we will reach a Beta period until the final 1.0 release. == References SineSignal web site http://sinesignal.com CouchDB web site http://couchdb.apache.org == License Copyright 2010 SineSignal, LLC.
