Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between couchbase and @cbjsdev/cbjs ?

Cbjs is basically couchbase plus thousands of lines of TypeScript on top of it.
There are also a few runtime additions, like chainable sub-doc operation or throwOnSpecError.

Can I just replace couchbase with @cbjsdev/cbjs ?

Yes. Make sure you don't fall in one of the edge cases documented here and you'll be good.

How is it tested ?

All the tests of the official library have been implemented.
They have been ported to vitest to guarantee their isolation and migrated to TypeScript.
Hundreds of tests and thousands of assertions have been added to not only test the runtime behavior but also test the function signatures and overall, the types.

Cbjs is currently tested on GitHub Actions against Node.js 18 and Couchbase Server 7.2.4 and 7.6.1.
