Paul Joseph Davis commented on COUCHDB-486:
-------------------------------------------

I think Jan has a good point. Though I'm not sure I'd execute it quite like that. If we go through with the source tree reorganization then having a couch_db_client.erl, couch_view_client.erl etc etc is what I've seen in other projects.

> I'm attaching a patch that routes non-purely-functional calls into core CouchDB modules through a new couch_api module.  I also went ahead and wrote down dialyzer specs for everything in couch_api.  I think this will be a useful reference, will make the codebase a bit more accessible to newcomers, and will help us maintain better separation between the purely functional httpd layer and the core (useful in e.g. partitioning work).
