Hi Rajarshi and Kashyap.
I found the methods explained in your article very interesting because the java commands are simple and almost easy to remember.
However, some years have passed and many things may have changed.
It seems Couchdb4j is no longer possibly so popular and is less maintained.
I would like to have some more advanced way(more advanced than curl) of communicating with CouchDB. What would you recommend today?
Would you still recommend Couchdb4j.
You may wish to even write a new article on this subject?
Lastly, being entirely new at java, I have set up Eclipse with all the dependencies but have failed to get a connection to Couch. Can you refer me to tutorials possibly where I can improve my knowledge of Eclipse/Java/Connecting to CouchDB etc.?
Many thanks for the explanatory article. Really appreciated.
