Greenkeeper badge Circle CI

A JS API for CouchDB that does the heavy lifting

Slouch is a good alternative to nano:

  • You don't have to create an instance for each DB
  • Supports native promises
  • Supports iterators
  • Automatically throttles connections to DB to avoid max_dbs_open errors
  • Automatically persists connections with exponential backoff in case DB restarts or connection is dropped
  • Works in node and in the browser
  • Provides upserts and "get and update" functions
  • Support for optionally ignoring conflicts, missing docs, etc...
  • Designed for CouchDB 1, CouchDB 2 and CouchDB 3
