FindHasMany is limited to 25 (default) hits about relational-pouch

[muziejus]

For a bit of clarification on @rhysdavies1994’s workaround: you can enlarge the find default in Fauxton by:

1. clicking on the gear on the left menu (Config), which takes you to http://127.0.0.1:5984/_utils/#_config/

2. choosing “Add Option” at the top

3. Filling in mango for “section,” default_limit for “name” and something large (50000) for “value.” On reload, it should look something like:

@muziejus solution working like a charm. Here's another pic:

(just put a bigger number in limit)

I've had this exact same issue using ember-pouch with CouchDB and went through hours of exploration of messing with adapters and scouring through documentation to eventually come to a simple workaround.

As mentioned above, CouchDB 2.1.0 added the default limit. With ember-pouch v5.0.0 you can now set limit on query, but this didn't affect findHasMany for me.

By searching through the apache/couchdb source code I found there is an undocumented mango section in the CouchDB configuration: https://github.com/apache/couchdb/blob/master/rel/overlay/etc/default.ini#L280-L285

Therefore if you don't want a limit, you can just set a high limit under mango.default_limit through Fauxton or by modifying your config file.

@rhysdavies1994 I did't know that. Not sure this is what we shout advise but until we fix this for findHasMany it is a good workaround.

I am not aware there is a limit. Will investigate. On https://bloggr.exmer.com/ it will return more than 25 Posts. See https://bloggr.exmer.com/authors/D8F61FBC-A9C4-0318-851B-228507CDC032 after this record is loaded. https://github.com/broerse/ember-cli-blog/blob/master/app/models/author.js

Hmm... I wonder if this is only when running against CouchDB: http://docs.couchdb.org/en/2.1.0/api/database/find.html?highlight=limit#db-find

Perhaps PouchDB does not have a default limit?

My scenario is that I use Ember-Pouch running against a PouchDB syncing to CouchDB on the iPad, and in the browser running straight against the same CouchDB.

We run everything against Cloudant or CouchDB 1.6 and it does not have this limit. I see this limit in your CouchDB 2.1.0 doc but it does not state how to disable it.

@nolanlawson Is this fixed/addressed in the newest pouch-find.

@afinne Cloudant has this limit but we never saw it because if you use find on the local pouch it does not have this limit. So it is only the backend that has this limit. We stil need to fix this somewhere. I think this module is perhaps the correct place to fix this and not in pouchdb-find.
