pouchdb-legacy-utils

PouchDB 5.4.0 removed undocumented globals like PouchDB.ajax, PouchDB.utils, and PouchDB.Errors. This plugin adds them back in, in case you need it for backwards compatibility or for your tests.

Requires PouchDB 5.4.0+.

Install

npm install pouchdb-legacy-utils

Usage

var PouchDB = require('pouchdb'); // or pouchdb-core, etc.
PouchDB.plugin(require('pouchdb-legacy-utils'));

Now you have PouchDB.utils, PouchDB.Errors, and PouchDB.ajax, just like in PouchDB pre-5.4.0.

Shouldn't 5.4.0 have been a major version bump?

Yeah, probably. We didn't realize how many people were using these undocumented, unrecommended APIs, though. Hence this plugin.
