IndexedDB adaptor about lawnchair

[mikeal]

I'm implementing all of CouchDB on top of IndexedDatabase.

I've been getting regular builds from some people at Mozilla as they've been implementing it. Here is the latest one:

This is rad. Good looks, mikeal.

Any idea when this adaptor will make it into the trunk? Is anyone implementing this as yet?

[paulirish]

So far the IndexedDB is very volatile and so it's not ready to write for yet. Even mozilla exposes it as mozIndexedDB, i believe.

[mikeal]

that's also because the mozilla implementation still includes stuff that they have proposed go in to the spec but hasn't been officially added yet.

Yes, I was working on indexeddb the last few days (FF4beta) and its totally unusable, super unstable. And the documentation is virtually non existent. So I guess this will just have to wait.

Thanks

I've actually found it to be fairly stable.

I'm using a large portion of the API and all my unit and performance tests are passing.

Some exceptions can be ambiguous and parts of the API may only be documented on the mailing list right now but if you want to try and learn from example you can check out http://github.com/mikeal/IDBCouch .

So, I think imma gonna close this issue for now... thinking as we see Couch move to more places Lawnchair is only going to be a client/wrapper lib.
