Exciting!

[nolanlawson]

Very interested in where this goes. :)

[srsgores]

Is there a reason why this isn't ready to be merged? What's needed in order to get this working?

[backspace]

@fivetanley specifically said

not ready to merge yet

for one!

[simonexmachina]

@fivetanley can we get an update on this please. What is required to get this moving forward/merged?

[broerse]

If we switch to NPM like this #162 what is needed for FastBoot?

Hi folks - first time building a Fastboot-enabled application in Ember, and struggling to get PouchDB queries working on the server side. When I try to create a new PouchDB instance to communicate directly with a CouchDB 2.0 server over HTTP, I keep getting the following error:

ReferenceError: navigator is not defined

I'm using an unadulterated install of ember-pouch, which brings down the kitchen-sink version of PouchDB I believe. This version uses browser-based AJAX libraries, and doesn't selectively switch to node libraries when they're not available. Is there an easy workaround to this that I'm missing?

[broerse]

@stickbyatlas We switched from loading pouchdb in bower to loading the browserified bundel from pouchdb. We should switch to the node version depending on a fastboot check. Not sure how to write test for this. Hope is works?? @fivetanley do you have time to change this PR depending on the new NPM only ember-pouch ?

@fivetanley What do you want to do with this PR. Make it your summer project ;-)
