Requirements ------------ [](#requirements) - PHP 7.0+ Installation ------------ [](#installation) fauxton-client is available on Packagist. To install it, type the following on your preferred command-line interface: ``` composer require chemem/fauxton-client dev-master ``` Fauxton ------- [](#fauxton) Fauxton, formerly Futon, is the name of the Couch Database web client. Like its predecessor, Fauxton is a robust web interface designed to ease interactions with CouchDB. The client ---------- [](#the-client) Fauxton-client is a PHP library written for the sole purpose of performing CouchDB operations such as creating databases, creating indexes and writing Mango queries. NoSQL vs SQL ------------ [](#nosql-vs-sql) Structured Query Language (SQL) is a popular approach to handling back-end information and follows Atomicity Consistency Isolation and Durability (ACID) conventions. Simply put, SQL databases allow those who use them to store unique data in relational, table structures. NoSQL, on the other hand, presents a different paradigm to handling data interactions: NoSQL standards are a manifestation of Basically Available Soft-state Eventually consistent (BASE) practices. Couch Database is a NoSQL database that follows a document-oriented, key-value pair format that is also convenient for manipulating data. Documentation ------------- [](#documentation) I advise that you read the [official CouchDB documentation](http://docs.couchdb.org/en/2.0.0/api/index.html)so as to better understand the fauxton-client. Also, reading the [fauxton-client wiki](https://github.com/ace411/fauxton-client/wiki/Introduction) is recommended and therefore, prudent. Running the unit tests ---------------------- [](#running-the-unit-tests) In order to run the unit tests, run the following command: ``` vendor/bin/phpunit -c phpunit.xml.dist ``` Dealing with problems --------------------- [](#dealing-with-problems) Endeavor to create an issue on GitHub when the need arises or send an email to Note ---- [](#note) In light of recent modification activity, the fauxton-client is temporarily unusable. ### Health Score 23 — LowBetter than 26% of packages Maintenance16 Infrequent updates — may be unmaintained Popularity12 Limited adoption so far Community11 Small or concentrated contributor base Maturity45 Maturing project, gaining track record Bus Factor1 Top contributor holds 99.3% of commits — single point of failure How is this calculated?**Maintenance (25%)** — Last commit recency, latest release date, and issue-to-star ratio.
