• Full documation can be found here.
• Source code is available at here.

How to use

You can initialize it in your server and use it in your other files or even other plugins.

Single module with many files

In your server.coffee have something like this:

Hapi = require 'hapi'
new require('puffer')( { host: '127.0.0.1', name: 'default' } )

Above line will create an instance of couchbase which you can use in your other files as an example in your userModel.coffee you can use this:

bucket = require('puffer').instance
bucket.insert( 'doc1', { color: 'red' } )
      .then( (d) -> console.log d )

Multiple Hapi Plugins

In your server.coffee have something like this:

Hapi = require 'hapi'
db = new require('puffer')( { host: '127.0.0.1', name: 'default' } )
 
server.register { 
  register: require('myPlugin'), 
  options: { bucket: db } 
}, (err) ->
  throw err if err
  server.start()

Above line will create an instance of couchbase which you should pass to plugins. In your myPlugin module you can do this:

exports.register = (plugin, options, next) ->
  bucket = options.bucket
  bucket.insert( 'doc1', { color: 'red' } )
        .then( (d) -> console.log d )
