Setting up Ottoman

Requirements: NodeJS/NPM, Docker, VS Code

Setup the database:

docker pull couchbase:7.0.0-beta
docker run -d --name cb7 -p 8091-8096:8091-8096 -p 11210-11211:11210-11211 couchbase:7.0.0-beta

Visit the locally running web admin at: localhost:8091

Setup New Cluster with name & password

Configure Disk, Memory, Services with at least: data, query, index services checked.

Add a bucket named travel

With the database now up and running, let's clone a NodeJS project with some sample files we can use to learn Ottoman:

git clone https://github.com/httpJunkie/intro-to-ottoman-v2.git && cd intro-to-ottoman-v2 && npm install && code .

This will clone the NodeJS project, change directories into the project, install dependencies, and now VS Code will now be open.

With this in place we should be able to run the individual files one at at time:

node createAirline.js

This should add documents to your travel bucket. Next we can run:

node findAirline.js
node findWithQueryBuilder.js

Now let's update that file:

node updateAirline.js

You will notice a change in the document's callsign

This should give you a basic understanding of how to create an Ottoman project and get started!
