Subject: Newbie problem with template path
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit

I am having a problem to understand the path where the engine looks for
the files included with the !json and !code macros.

More exactly: I am having a

{
   "_id": "_design/example",
   "_rev": "11-4ca79b908a6278eeb8d4d5e2e6488fb5",
   "views": {
       "foo": {
           "map": "function(doc){ emit(doc._id, doc._rev+'QQQ')}"
       }
   },
   "shows": {
       "my": "function(req, doc) {
                // !json templates.edit
                return template(templates.edit,{})  ; }"
   }
}

and

http://localhost:5984/mydatabase/_design/example/_view/foo

as expected. However

http://localhost:5984/mydatabase/_design/example/_show/my

produces a

{"error":"normal","reason":"{gen_server,call,\n
[couch_query_servers,\n
{ret_proc,{proc,<0.21518.0>,<<\"javascript\">>,\n
      {couch_os_process,prompt},\n
{couch_os_process,set_timeout},\n
{couch_os_process,stop}}}]}"}

I am having a non-empty

{
   "_id": "_design/template/_show/my",
   "_rev": "2-7051cbe5c8faecd085a3fa619e6e6337"
}

but this does not seem to help here. Moreover, where do I place the
template content into this object ?


I never got that part working so probably it is just a very stupid
newbie error...

Best
