Joan Touzet commented on COUCHDB-1894:
--------------------------------------

I'm -1 on this until such time as it no longer wildly violates the assumed =
constraints on the viewserver model and provides strictly a view server, no=
t a "query server" or a "JS execution environment." If sandbox.js solves th=
at, then so be it, but I do not want to let users think it's OK to abuse th=
e view server protocol/provision in the server to provide arbitrary coproce=
ssing ability.

> Let=E2=80=99s clean up and merge Jason Smith=E2=80=99s Node.js query serv=
er into ASF land and ship it as opt-in and experimental.
> I=E2=80=99ve prepared a branch that does the following:
>  - remove fancy extra features like app server handlers and the visual de=
bugger support for now
>  - make it a drop-in replacement for couchjs
>  - bundle the code in src/couchjs-node
>  - add a new query server language =E2=80=9Cnodejs=E2=80=9D that people c=
an use
>  - include sandbox.js from https://github.com/KlausTrainer/sandbox.js (no=
t hooked up yet)
> The query server is not installed by default and users can install them i=
n two ways:
> 1. from source:
>     $ cd src/couchjs-node
>     $ npm link
> 2. from NPM:
>     $ npm install couchjs # add @1.x.x for once the module mirrors CouchD=
B version numbers for forward compat)
> And then they can uncomment and update the [query_server] line in local.i=
ni.
> * * *
> Open work items on the view server:
>  - make it work with CLI tests
>  - fix remaining test cases in web test runner
>  - hook up sandbox.js from https://github.com/KlausTrainer/sandbox.js
