I started to use it quite some time ago and now decided to extract the wrapper I am using, which proved to work quite well. I now talked several times in my blog about CouchDb__ and gave `a talk`__ on the `PHP Unconference`__ on this together with Nils__. I started to use it quite some time ago and now decided to extract the wrapper I am using, which proved to work quite well. __ http://couchdb.org __ http://kore-nordmann.de/talks/08_04_unconf_document_storage.pdf __ http://www.php-unconference.de/ __ http://www.naderman.de/ The wrapper is called PHPillow, lays on top of the Couch and offers even more comfort laying anything into the database. :) It has complete API documentation, currently a test coverage of >95%, tutorials and practical examples included. Even I would call it alpha - as CouchDB is still alpha at the current state - you can expect it stay quite stable API wise, as I rely heavily on it in other projects and therefore won't break too much. CouchDB, as a document based database, is really fun to use and offers some unique features - especially with the really cool view features it has. The website__ and wiki__ are good starting points to learn more about it. __ http://incubator.apache.org/couchdb/docs/overview.html __ http://wiki.apache.org/couchdb/ You can check the wrapper out at `svn://arbitracker.org/phpillow/trunk`__ - I am looking forward to any feedback. More details on the project and usage are included in the README. __ svn://arbitracker.org/phpillow/trunk Update ====== I added a small and short project page about PHPillow here on my website at the usual place. It includes the readme__ and the tutorial__ which are availabale in the repository. __ /projects/phpillow/index.html __ /projects/phpillow/tutorial.html Trackbacks ========== Comments ======== - Jan at Thu, 22 May 2008 18:39:32 +0200 Awesome :) - sven tietje at Thu, 22 May 2008 21:52:11 +0200 hi kore, great! ´looks great -> exactly what i am looking for. i`ll implement my varnish + couchdb solution in the upcoming weeks ;-) perphaps i`ll get in touch with you to implement a proxy behavior into phpillow. greets sven - britg at Mon, 26 May 2008 22:19:57 +0200 Thanks for sharing this! - blub at Wed, 24 Jun 2009 01:14:55 +0200 Hi! At first thanks for your good work and your great documentation! I'm interested in using couchdb with PHP. And I would like to see an other application how other people use it. Did someone know an OpenSource PHP/couchdb application?
