I want to use this to enable developers to manage the PouchDB from my server. I can handle CORS and requiring them to create a bookmarklet just gets in the way.

Can I just get the html/css/js files needed to just plunk it on my server?

unnecessary imo. just need a simple python -m SimpleHTTPServer or equivalent in node.

preferably, use same the same dependencies as pouchdb

I have previously created database with puton that cant be opened, while we will be fixing that in pouchdb itself, it would be handy if puton told me it couldnt open the database

This is just a suggestion, so feel free to close if its not something that interests you.

There has been a lot of work on a new admin interface to CouchDB to replace futon called fauxton. Its based on backbone so it should be possible to replace the backend and have it use pouchdb, the fauxton codebase has been built in a pluggable way so the front end is customisable and any ideas you had about interfaces could be built as plugins, but it would mean getting a whole bunch of functionality for free

https://github.com/cloudant-labs/couchdb/tree/fauxton/src/fauxton
https://npmjs.org/package/fauxton

if I create a document without an id it should just use .post

need more documentation on how to start contributing/development

The id / revision should probably stay visible while I am editing a document

when injecting bookmarklet.js $ is not defined. cannot assume that jquery is loaded

When I try to add a document then press cancel

The README says "Check out the PouchDB inspector for Chrome and PouchDB inspector for Firefox" but neither of those links work.

Do you have a fresher one? Or is there a better tool for this?

I dont quite know why, puton didnt seem to do much for me until I realised I needed to prefix the dbname with idb:// otherwise it tried to use the http adapter (is it using an old version of pouch?)

@zichun on second thoughts, using the Pouch on the page might make Puton unstable. We should have a Pouch.noConflict() method inside in PouchDB itself.

When I try to edit a document and enter

{'hello':'world'}

I get a syntax error

I cant seem to be able to close a view query I have opened

Originally discussed in: https://github.com/daleharvey/pouchdb/issues/381

I think it would be very useful for devs to be able to visualise the revision tree of a document, off the top of my head it would be possible to construct via public apis.

switching between tabs re-render the view, which is problematic when say, i'm editting a document halfway and need to look at a view query result etc.

When I collapse a document its revtree should probably hide

This is more about ui, entering a JSON string into a prompt is quite awkward, I think a textbox as is used for editing a document would be nicer

It may also be worth looking to integrate http://www.jsoneditoronline.org/ or something similiar (just the plain json view)

Either the Puton UI doesn't display or it states "No Existing Pouches" when in fact there is one. Tested with both localhost and public site.

Win 7 64, Chrome 35.0.1916.153 m

add a build system to generate bookmarklet

You should put up some documentation on how to use this as a generic DB frontend for JS webapps. It shouldn't a problem with CORS.

clicking on the bookmarklet takes a perceptible amount of time to load the entire thing..

http://puton.jit.su should point to a docs site.. (with a means to launch/add the bookmarklet)..

When we add/delete a document, the doc_count at the header does not update

I'm new to this, and so perhaps I'm missing something obvious, but when I load Puton, it tells me there are no existing pouches, when I know that there is at least one. In playing around with it, I have now created two additional databases that show up, although they are not accessible to the app that I am developing.

Please tell me what I am missing.

Thanks,
Wayne
