There should be a ticket to make view responses include the view_seq and to expose doc._local_seq via a GET parameter. It's much better to know what seq your state is current as of, than to miss updates. > Add "now" option for ?since parameter on _changes > ------------------------------------------------- > > Key: COUCHDB-650 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COUCHDB-650 > Project: CouchDB > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: HTTP Interface > Reporter: Randall Leeds > Priority: Minor > Attachments: 0001-add-since-now-option-to-continuous-catch-edge-cases-.patch > > > As per a discussion on IRC with mikeal, jan_____, whartung, and rnewson: > Having _changes?since="now" allows clients to listen to only new changes without making two requests (one to extract seq from /db, and one _changes). -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
