Pretty simple actually. You can see a example of an hierarchal tree here: http://probablyprogramming.com/2008/07/04/storing-hierarchical-data-in-couchdb/ You would propably want to use UUIDs as IDs instead of the names like in that example. For the lang bit you would probably use a value with an object with locales for names instead of multiple values in the root of the document. Such as: name = {"US-en": "Front Page", "IS-is":"Forsíđa"} -- Jón Grétar Borgţórsson On Thu, Mar 18, 2010 at 8:53 AM, wrote: > Hello, > > can you help me to understand how i can translate the following mysql > innodb example to an couch db structur. > > > http://img163.imagevenue.com/img.php?image=97975_relationalDatabaseExample_122_89lo.jpg > http://pastie.org/875065 > > the foreign keys are only to show the relations. > > My main problem is to understand how to build the menu in couch db. > Do i have the parent id structur. > > How do you do that usably witch couchDb? > > Heiko > > > >
