Question

I am using Spring-MVC LightCouch and CouchDB and I have custom Views that need to be inserted into the DB on deployment. I have found the LightCouch has a method for pulling documents “from desk” as noted on their website:

DesignDocument designDoc = dbClient.design().getFromDesk("example");  
Response response = dbClient.design().synchronizeWithDb(designDoc);

This Works good from within JAVA code, however I need to be able to do it in the Spring ApplicationContext.xml I have more than one so I would like to mimick the call of:

dbClient.dessign().synchronizeAllWithDB()

How would I do this in the bean definition of the ApplicationContext I already have this:

<bean id="dbClient" class="org.lightcouch.CouchDbClient" lazy-init="false" destroy-    method="shutdown">
<constructor-arg value="couchdb.properties" />
</bean> 

Answer 1

I ended up having to make a bean that synchronized the database on init and created that when the app starts
