I am currently trying to figure out if CouchDB is suitable for my use-case and if so, how. I have a situation similar to the following:
First set of documents (let's call them companies):
{
"_id" : 1,
"name" : "Foo"
}
{
"_id" : 2,
"name" : "Bar"
}
{
"_id" : 3,
"name" : "Baz"
}
Second set of documents (let's call them projects):
{
"_id" : 4,
"name" : "FooProject1",
"company" : 1
}
{
"_id" : 5,
"name" : "FooProject2",
"company" : 1
}
...
{
"_id" : 100,
"name" : "BazProject2",
"company" : 3
}
Third set of documents (let's call them incidents):
{
"_id" : "300",
"project" : 4,
"description" : "...",
"cost" : 200
}
{
"_id" : "301",
"project" : 4,
"description" : "...",
"cost" : 400
}
{
"_id" : "302",
"project" : 4,
"description" : "...",
"cost" : 500
}
...
So in short every company has multiple projects, and every project can have multiple incidents. One reason I model the data is, that I come mainly from a SQL background, so the modelling may be completely unsuitable. The second reason is, that I would like to add new incidents very easily by just using the REST-API provided by couchdb. So the incidents have to be single documents.
However, I now would like to get a view that would allow me to calculate the total cost for each company. I can easily define a view using map-reduce and linked documents which get's me the total amount per project. However once I am at the project level I cannot get any further to the level of the company.
Is this possible at all using couchDb? This kind of summarising data sounds like a perfect use case for map-reduce. In SQL I would just do a three-table join, but it seems like in couchDb the best I can get is two-table joins.
As mentioned you cannot do joins in CouchDb but this isn't a limitation, this is an invitation to both think about your problems and approach them differently. The correct way to do this in CouchDb is to define data structures called for example : IncidentReference composed of :
The project id
And the company id
That way your data would look like :
{
"_id" : "301",
"project" : 4,
"description" : "...",
"cost" : 400,
"reference" : {
"projectId" : 1,
"companyId" : 2
}
}
This is just fine. Once you have that, you can play with Map/Reduce to achieve whatever you want easily. Generally speaking, you need to think about the way you are going to query your data.
Hi all i'm using Xcode 7 and swift2 but for some weird reason i'm unable to set an data object of type JSON, i've tried using different types and they seem to come up on the intellisense but for some reason JSON is available when it previously was..
The error i'm getting is
Use of undeclared type JSON
This is the format of my data in a blank swift file it's worth note mentioning that using the word JSON doesn't turn green like it normally should.

Compiler have all rights to throw that error. There is no data type called JSON existing in Swift. You should use dictionary instead.
I followed the article here to create my first Passbook pass.

In the end I created the pkpass file but when I drag and drop the file on the simulator I get the following:
Any ideas? I checked the system logs in the console app and it does not display any messages.
When I email the pkpass as an attachment to myself this is what I see.
There is something wrong with the way you've signed your pass. When I open the pass on my iPhone, I get this in the logs:
Invalid data error reading pass pass.com.azamsharp.blindscoupon/123456. The passTypeIdentifier or teamIdentifier provided may not match your certificate, or the certificate trust chain could not be verified.
Double check your certificate and values match. You must also remember to include the WWDC certificate when signing the manifest.
When using the IOS API, I'm making a call to connect via the ApigeeDataClient connectEntities method. I pass in the type "users", then the user's uuid, then connectionType "likes", with the connectee type of "songs" and the song's uuid.
Example:
ApigeeClientResponse *response = [_dataClient connectEntities:#"users" connectorID:_apigeeUser.uuid connectionType:#"likes" connecteeType:#"songs" connecteeID:song.uuid];
When I make the connection, it says successful, but when I look at the data on the server, it seems to save the connection incorrectly. For example, for the song, I see:
connecting :likes :/songs/b523a6aa-bb39-11e4-a2bb-35673af856e9/connecting/likes
It looks like the song's uuid isn't in the connecting path.
The same is true for the connection related to the user. It's the user's uuid that seems to be connected to the same user. The uuid is that of the song's uuid, not the user's. When I make the call to getEntityConnections, like so:
ApigeeClientResponse *response = [_dataClient getEntityConnections:#"songs" connectorID:_apigeeUser.uuid connectionType:#"likes" query:nil];
It returns an error, saying "expected song, but got user's uuid.
Entity c831e1c4-2e6e-11e4-94ce-299efa8c6fd5 is not the expected type, expected song, found user"
In looking in Apigee itself, in the data section, I see the following snippet:
"connections": {
"likes": "/users/c831e1c4-2e6e-11e4-94ce-299efa8c6fd5/likes"
}
The song's uuid is missing. Even when I try to update the JSON directly on the server, basically adding the song's uuid to the end, it says it's saved, but it removes the song's uuid.
Even just using the curl method to make a connection doesn't work. For example:
curl -X POST http://api.usergrid.com/peterdj/sandbox/users/bc2fc82a-bfa3-11e4-a994-b19963f1779d/likes/c37f1eaa-bfa3-11e4-9141-97b3510c98e6
When I make that call, I get this

"application":"0baaf590-2c1b-11e4-9bb5-11cb139f1620",
"params":{
},
"path":"/users/bc2fc82a-bfa3-11e4-a994-b19963f1779d/likes",

},

],

Notice that the resulting connecting path seems correct when it's returned, but when do another GET curl, as so:

Is this a bug with the entity connections with Apigee/Usergrid or am I doing something wrong?
Thanks
Well, turns out, thanks to the comments by #remus, I've figured it out.
In this call:
ApigeeClientResponse *response = [_dataClient getEntityConnections:#"songs" connectorID:_apigeeUser.uuid connectionType:#"likes" query:nil];
The connection needs to be "users", not "songs". Works now. Thanks #remus
I am trying to run queries against the JIRA API and get results in which I can see the dates and times that each issue went through a status change.
E.g.: Run a query to grab all issues with a certain assignee and see, along with the rest of the information, timestamps for when each issue changed from "Open" to "Resolved".
Is this possible?
EDIT: I have tried expanding the changelog, but while that tells me what status changes a ticket went through (e.g., that the particular ticket transitioned from "Open" to "Resolved" and then from "Resolved" to "Closed"), it doesn't tell me WHEN these transitions occurred.
Turns out that each of the transition objects showing the status changes have a "created" field that contains the time and date the transition occurred, which I feel is a bit of a misnomer, but there it is. An example object inside the "histories" array in the expanded changelog object:
{ "author" : { "active" : true,
