DreamSeat usage

Basics

Synchronous

// assumes localhost:5984 and Admin Party if constructor is left blank
var client = new CouchClient();
var db = client.GetDatabase("Northwind");

// get document by ID (return a object derived from [JObject](http://james.newtonking.com/projects/json/help/html/T_Newtonsoft_Json_Linq_JObject.htm))
var doc = GetDocument<JDocument>(string id);

// get document by ID (strongly typed POCO version)
var myObj = db.GetDocument<MyObject>("12345");

// You can also use the asynchronous method signatures asking to Wait()
var db2 = client.GetDatabase("Northwind", new Result<CouchDatabase>()).Wait();

Asynchronous

// assumes localhost:5984 and Admin Party if constructor is left blank
var client = new CouchClient();
client.GetDatabase("Northwind", new Result<CouchDatabase>()).WhenDone(
    a => DatabaseOpened(a),
    e => ProcessException(e)
    );
}
