I haven't kept up to date with CouchBase for quite some time. The first support I saw for Android was the Erlang version of the server that needed to be installed separately from the app. How is this meant to be working (when there's Android support)? Will everything needed to write an Android app be bundled with the app?

Couchbase Lite is native code for iOS and Android, weighing in at significantly less than 500kb.

It's part of your app runtime, so for something like an Android PhoneGap app, you'd include our library to a normal PhoneGap container and then interact with the database via Ajax calls to localhost.

For normal Dalvik apps you just do normal Java code to talk to the database. Same story on iOS, but with Objective-C.

Does that answer your question?

Yes, thanks! Sounds excellent!

Any ETA on Android support?
