slouch

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 both CouchDB 1 and CouchDB 2
