bigbluehat / annotator-couchapp Goto Github PK

Hi,

I'm trying to use your code with couchdb (not pouchdb). But for some reason it does not trigger any highlight not the "annotationCreated" hook.

I suspect this is because your/couchdb api implementation does not follow the standard annotator (2.x) API and returns {"ok":true,"id":"xxx","rev":"xxx"} instead of the document itself.

If I change annotator http storage code from:

HttpStorage.prototype.create = function (annotation) { 
    return this._apiRequest('create', annotation);
};

to:

HttpStorage.prototype.create = function (annotation) { 
    this._apiRequest('create', annotation);
    return annotation;
};

then it works.

What do you think? What is the best way to solve this?

Thanks
