Question

I am trying to do this with node.js and riak-js

db = require('./riak-js/lib').getClient({host: "localhost", port: "8098" });
console.log db

Note, this is Coffee-Script code.

The db variable always ends up as { }

I have cloned the latest version of riak-js from github. I have also tried the npm distributed version, but always the same result.

I have a single node of riak running on my local machine. I can access it with any browser with url localhost:8098

Does anyone have any suggestion why this is failing for me?

It is just an empty object, the magic is in it’s prototype 🙂

try this:

db = require('riak-js').getClient({ debug:true })

db.save 'tests', 1, { works: 'fine' }, (err) ->
  db.getAll 'tests'
