# Define a CouchDB view. The name of the view will be the concatenation
# of by and the keys joined by _and_
#
# ==== Example views:
#
# class Post
# # view with default options
# # query with Post.by_date
# view_by :date, :descending => true
#
# # view with compound sort-keys
# # query with Post.by_user_id_and_date
# view_by :user_id, :date
#
# # view with custom map/reduce functions
# # query with Post.by_tags :reduce => true
# view_by :tags,
# :map =>
# "function(doc) {
# if (doc['model'] == 'Post' && doc.tags) {
# doc.tags.forEach(function(tag){
# emit(doc.tag, 1);
# });
# }
# }",
# :reduce =>
# "function(keys, values, rereduce) {
# return sum(values);
# }"
# end
#
# view_by :date will create a view defined by this Javascript
# function:
#
# function(doc) {
# if (doc['model'] == 'Post' && doc.date) {
# emit(doc.date, null);
# }
# }
#
# It can be queried by calling Post.by_date which accepts all
# valid options for CouchRest::Database#view. In addition, calling with
# the :raw => true option will return the view rows
# themselves. By default Post.by_date will return the
# documents included in the generated view.
#
# Calling with :database => [instance of CouchRest::Database] will
# send the query to a specific database, otherwise it will go to
# the model's default database (use_database)
#
# CouchRest::Database#view options can be applied at view definition
# time as defaults, and they will be curried and used at view query
# time. Or they can be overridden at query time.
#
# Custom views can be queried with :reduce => true to return
# reduce results. The default for custom views is to query with
# :reduce => false.
#
# Views are generated (on a per-model basis) lazily on first-access.
# This means that if you are deploying changes to a view, the views for
# that model won't be available until generation is complete. This can
# take some time with large databases. Strategies are in the works.
#
# To understand the capabilities of this view system more completely,
# it is recommended that you read the RSpec file at
# spec/couchrest/more/extended_doc_spec.rb.
