Sync gateway call to ViewCustom in github.com/couchbaselabs why

Mobile Sync Gateway
1

Hi,

when i enable REST Logging i see

go-couchbase: call to ViewCustom(“sync_gateway”, “access”) in github.com/couchbaselabs/sync_gateway/base.couchbaseBucket.ViewCustom

in my sync gateway logs.

My syncconfig
{
“interface”: “:4984”,
“adminInterface”: “:4985”,
“log”: [“REST”],
“databases”: {
“android”: {
“server”: “http://localhost:8091”,…

1 What does this mean. is my syncgateway installation calling views installed on git?

i am getting stupendous delays in initial syncing. Please help.

@arjunblue

No this is referring to the map/reduce views in Couchbase Server.

Sync Gateway creates a number of map/reduce views to track the mapping of documents to channels and user access to channels.

This is expected behaviour.

Thanks Andy
but please help me out here when access view is defined in my installed copy of syncgateway (on my server) why is it referring or calling to ViewCustom(“sync_gateway”, “access”) in github.com/couchbaselabs/sync_gateway/base.couchbaseBucket.ViewCustom that is on bit bucket, this was my doubt.

excerpt from my logs

2012/01/28 22:29:39 go-couchbase: call to ViewCustom(“sync_gateway”, “access”) in github.com/couchbaselabs/sync_gateway/base.couchbaseBucket.Vi$
2012/01/28 22:29:39 go-couchbase: call to ViewCustom(“sync_gateway”, “access”) in github.com/couchbaselabs/sync_gateway/base.couchbaseBucket.Vi$

sync gateway should be calling or invoking sync map function like access in this case already installed on my server.

Thanks

Hi Arjun,

github.com/couchbaselabs/sync_gateway/base.couchbaseBucket.ViewCustom is just the namespace for the ViewCustom method within the sync gateway code - it’s not referring to an external github url.

Based on the information you’ve shared so far I can’t explain the delays you’re seeing in initial synchronization, but it’s definitely nothing to do with making calls to git.

Thanks,
Adam

Thanks Adam i have shared my issue of initial sync already but have not received any replies. i have been struggling with it.
link of sync issue

just while trying to debug it i found hit to external server but if its just namespace not an actual hit. i remain stranded. Please if you have some time have a look at above link.

Thanks
Arjun
