The easiest way to test DroidCouch is to create a new Eclipse project and run the test client |

If you don't already have Eclipse and the latest Android SDK, please install them. |

You also need a CouchDB server that you can access via HTTP. It can be either remote or local. |

See http://couchdb.apache.org/ for details on how to install CouchDB. |

Note: if you intend to run on a real phone, please specify a compatible SDK version. |
|

Currently we default to SDK 1.5, which works for most phones currently on the market. |

4. Change the file TestClient.java |
|
19 |
||
20 |
Find the line: //String HOST = "ADD_YOUR_OWN_COUCHDB_SERVER_HERE"; |
|
21 |
and add a valid URL to your own server. Note that the URL should end with a forward slash. |
|
22 |
||

5. Try running the project using "Debug as -> Android project" |
|
24 |
||
25 |
If everything works, you will see the test application in the emulator. |
|

After a few seconds, it should then display: All tests passed! |
