I need help with CouchDB offline feature.

[aaamitsingh]

Hi All,
I am new to CouchDB just watched a few tutorials and want to use this DB with python on my next project.

In my app, I want to use an offline-first feature where I'm going to store the temperature of a multiple truck engine(suppose 100 trucks). For recording the temperature I'm going to use Raspberry pi.

a. Here I want to use the offline-first feature because the truck will be travelling to a remote area where the network will not be available sometimes and that time I want to store the data into to local database and once it will get the network the data will be sync to main CouchDB server.

b. and on the raspberry pi due to low memory availability, I only want to store the temperature data of a day or week but on the server, I want to store the temperature for a 1-2 year.

In some tutorial, I have read that this can be done with the PouchDB but as I'm not using browser-side application so I cant use this.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

may be couchdb server on rpi + nodejs on rpi + nano library? nodejs app store data to couchdb then couchdb replicate to main server when network is available.

To answer your question, PouchDB can be used on the server using Node.js
