Overview

TouchDB-Android is the Android port of TouchDB by Jens Alfke (jens@couchbase.com). For information on the high-level goals of the project see the iOS README. This document will limit itself to Android specific issues and deviations from the iOS version.

Current Status

• Ported core functionality present in TouchDB-iOS as of Jan 22.
• Unit tests pass

Requirements

• Android 2.2 or newer
• Jackson JSON Parser/Generator

License

• Apache License 2.0

Known Issues

• Exception Handling in the current implementation makes things less readable. This was a deliberate decision I made to make it more of a literal port of the iOS version. Once the majority of code is in place and working I would like to revisit this and handle exceptions in more natural Android/Java way.

TODO

• Finish porting all of TDRouter so that all operations are supported
