After using Couchbase::View in a few projects, I quickly tired of having to reference the API docs for the specific options needed. This gem adds some simple methods to make configuring a View before the query is executed.

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'couchbase-view-helpers'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install couchbase-view-helpers

require 'couchbase/model'

class Post < Couchbase::Model
  attribute :title
  attribute :body
  attribute :draft

  view :all, :by_draft_status
end

Normal View access:

drafts = Post.by_draft_status(key: true)
all    = Post.all(descending: true)

With ViewHelpers:

drafts = Post.by_draft_status.key(true)
all    = Post.all.desc

Supports will_paginate and kaminari style pagination. Normal View pagination:

page  = 3
per   = 20
skip  = (page - 1) * per
limit = per
page  = Post.all(skip: skip, limit: limit)

With ViewHelpers:

page = Post.all.paginate(page: 3, per_page: 20)
# or
page = Post.all.page(3).per(20)

1. Full coverage of all options (key ranges, etc.)
2. Integrate pagination and other defaults in the class level view declaration.

1. Fork it
2. Create your feature branch (git checkout -b my-new-feature)
3. Commit your changes (git commit -am 'Add some feature')
4. Push to the branch (git push origin my-new-feature)
5. Create new Pull Request
