Implementations

Interoperability

Implementations of the Shopping List demo app share a data model. This allows the demo apps to be interoperable with one another. For example, a user could plan a shopping trip with a desktop app built using Electron and PouchDB. The same user could then use a native app built using Kotlin and Cloudant Sync while shopping for groceries. Much of the design of this data model is inspired by the CouchDB Best Practices collection from eHealth Africa.

Shopping List Example

{
  "_id": "list:cj6mj1zfj000001n1ugjfkj33",
  "type": "list",
  "version": 1,
  "title": "Groceries",
  "checked": false,
  "place": {
    "title": "Healthy Living",
    "license": "Data © OpenStreetMap contributors, ODbL 1.0. http://www.openstreetmap.org/copyright",
    "lat": "44.46282415",
    "lon": "-73.1799710198028",
    "address": {
      "supermarket": "Healthy Living",
      "road": "Dorset Street",
      "city": "South Burlington",
      "county": "Chittenden County",
      "state": "Vermont",
      "postcode": "05406",
      "country": "United States of America",
      "countryCode": "us"
    }
  },
  "createdAt": "2017-08-21T18:40:00.000Z",
  "updatedAt": "2017-08-21T18:40:00.000Z"
}

Notes:

_id: Unique identifier for the document. Generated from the following values, separated by colons:
- Document type (list).
- Collision-resistant ID (cuid).
type: Document type (will always have a value of list for a shopping list).
version: Document schema version.
title: User-generated title for the shopping list.
checked: Has this shopping list been fully checked off?
place: Associates the shopping list with a geolocation. Derived from OpenStreetMap's Nominatim search tool. The example above is derived from the following search:

http://nominatim.openstreetmap.org/search/Healthy%20Living%20Vermont?format=json&addressdetails=1&namedetails=1

createdAt: Date and time at which the document was created. Expressed as a simplified extended ISO format in zero UTC offset (which can be generated in JavaScript with new Date().toISOString()).
updatedAt: Date and time at which the document was last updated. Expressed as a simplified extended ISO format in zero UTC offset.

Shopping List Item Example

{
  "_id": "item:cj6mn7e36000001p9n14fgk6s",
  "type": "item",
  "version": 1,
  "list": "list:cj6mj1zfj000001n1ugjfkj33",
  "title": "Mangos",
  "checked": false,
  "createdAt": "2017-08-21T18:43:00.000Z",
  "updatedAt": "2017-08-21T18:43:00.000Z"
}

Notes:

_id: Unique identifier for the document. Generated from the following values, separated by colons:
- Document type (item).
- Collision-resistant ID (cuid).
type: Document type (will always have a value of item for a shopping list item).
version: Document schema version.
list: The unique identifier of the parent shopping list
title: User-generated title for the shopping list item.
checked: Has this shopping list item been checked off?
createdAt: Date and time at which the document was created. Expressed as a simplified extended ISO format in zero UTC offset (which can be generated in JavaScript with new Date().toISOString()).
updatedAt: Date and time at which the document was last updated. Expressed as a simplified extended ISO format in zero UTC offset.

Here is an example of a Mango / pouchdb-find / Cloudant Query selector that fetches a single shopping list's items:

{
  "selector": {
    "type": "item",
    "list": "list:cj6mj1zfj000001n1ugjfkj33"
  }
}

Note that the above query can also be used to get a count of items within a shopping list by simply using the Array.length property (or equivalent) and accounting for the shopping list document being included in the results. Since PouchDB just runs every reduce function in memory, there is no benefit to using a _count reduce function when using PouchDB. The Cloudant Sync libraries for iOS and Android do not support map/reduce (but do support Cloudant Query / Mango).

Geolocation Context Example

A geolocation context is used to notify the user when the geolocation capability of their device has indicated that they are near a place associated with a shopping list. This provides the user with quick access to the shopping list for their current geographic context.

{
  "_id": "geo:drguywpyxp4t:cj6mn7e36000001p1q02dlz5q",
  "type": "geo",
  "list": "list:cj6mj1zfj000001n1ugjfkj33",
  "version": 1,
  "notified": false,
  "createdAt": "2017-08-21T18:57:00.000Z",
  "updatedAt": "2017-08-21T18:57:00.000Z"
}

Notes:

_id: Unique identifier for the document. Generated from the following values, separated by colons:
- Document type (geo).
- Geohash of the place.lat and place.lon values from the associated shopping list at a precision of 12 (which can be generated in JavaScript using the latlon-geohash module).
- Collision-resistant ID (cuid).
type: Document type (will always have a value of geo for a geolocation context item).
list: The unique identifier of the parent shopping list
version: Document schema version.
notified: Has a notification already been sent for this geolocation context? Note that the geolocation context document may be deleted after a notification has been sent and the corresponding shopping list has been fully checked off.
createdAt: Date and time at which the document was created. Expressed as a simplified extended ISO format in zero UTC offset (which can be generated in JavaScript with new Date().toISOString()).
updatedAt: Date and time at which the document was last updated. Expressed as a simplified extended ISO format in zero UTC offset.

Here is an example of a Mango / pouchdb-find / Cloudant Query selector that utilizes the built-in _all_docs view to query for geolocation contexts near the current geolocation coordinates of the device (the value drguyw below is the geohash of the user's location at a precision of 6, or ±0.61 km):

{
  "selector": {
    "_id": {
      "$gte": "geo:drguyw",
      "$lte": "geo:drguyw\uffff"
    }
  }
}
