Indexing doc._local_seq

[sameersegal]

CouchDB 1.6 has added the ability to pass _local_seq (or seq) of the doc to the view if the design-doc has options.local_seq = true. I want to use with couchdb-lucene but I am unable to make it work?

Here is the design doc:

{
   "_id": "_design/changes",
   "_rev": "5-e894a1ea6a6768acb22e6597425de4b2",
   "language": "javascript",
   "options": {
       "local_seq": true
   },
   "fulltext": {
       "replication": {
           "index": "function(doc) {\n  if(doc.context){\n\n    var ret = new Document();    \n    ret.add(doc.context,{field:'context',store:'yes'});\n    ret.add(doc._id,{field:'id',store:'yes',analyze:false});\n    ret.add(doc._rev,{field:'rev',store:'yes',analyze:false});\n    ret.add(doc._local_seq,{field:'seq',store:'yes',analyze:false});\n\n    return ret;\n  }\n}   "
       }
   }
}

I am happy to help in building this feature if some can point me to the relevant portion of the source code.

Best, Sameer

the _local_seq option for views has been around much longer than couchdb 1.6, but couchdb-lucene does not support it. Patches are welcome, of course. I'd start by checking couchdb source code for the places where 'local_seq' occurs and then read DatabaseIndexer.java.

Thanks - I'll work on it and get back to you.
