Setup Replication

curl -X POST http://localhost:5900/_replicate -d '{"source":"http://REMOTE:5900/cc_sms", "target":"cc_sms", "continuous":true}'

curl -X POST http://localhost:5900/_replicate -d '{"source":"cc_sms", "target":"http://REMOTE:5900/cc_sms", "continuous":true}'

WARNING: continuous replication is not stored after CouchDB restart on CouchDB 0.10.

Create test documents and check that you can see both on both servers

curl -X PUT http://localhost:5900/cc_sms/bloup -d '{"title":"Hello, I am from the ground"}'

curl -X PUT http://REMOTE:5900/cc_sms/bloup -d '{"title":"Do not panic, I am from the Internet"}'

Create Permanent Views

Using the "Temporary View" link on http://localhost:5900/_utils, create two different views and save them as permanent:

• cc/kannel

function(doc) {

if (doc.direction == 'outgoing' && doc.status == 'created') {

emit(doc, null);

}

}

• cc/rapidsms

function(doc) {

if (doc.direction == 'incoming' && doc.status == 'created') {

emit(doc, null);

}

}

• cc/processed

function(doc) {

if (doc.direction && doc.status == 'processed') {

emit(doc, null);

}

}
