Is it possible to load a database with indexes ?

[larryaubstore]

Hi,

I don't know if it's possible but I have the following use case:

Offline mode on mobile:

Step 1. Load each database with https://github.com/nolanlawson/pouchdb-load
Step 2. Create indexes with https://github.com/nolanlawson/pouchdb-find with 'createIndex' method.

Is it possible to create indexes on the server side with CouchDB and load them with 'pouchdb-load' instead of creating them on the client side ?

I ask this question because it takes a lot a time to create indexes on the client side. Can we 'bundle' indexes in files generated with https://github.com/nolanlawson/pouchdb-dump-cli

Step 3 Online mode. Handoff to regular replication mode db.replicate.

Sorry, there is currently no way to precompute indexes. If you're writing a mobile app, you can precompute the SQLite database itself; instructions are here: https://pouchdb.com/2016/04/28/prebuilt-databases-with-pouchdb.html

Thank you ! It exactly what I need for my mobile app.
