Figure out an elegant way to speify views

[robertkeizer]

As of #12 a basic view per class will be done.

There should be an elegant way to define views, such that not every combination of every attribute is its own view.

[robertkeizer]

May have to resort to a default of massive view ( bottom of the page ).

Other alternative is more complex, but would be more efficient at higher document count:

Multiple views, one for each attribute, with the key being [ name_of_class, name_of_attribute, value_of_attribute ]. And the value being the document ID.

Using the following so far.

function(doc) {
  if( doc["+name"] && doc["+name"] == 'Person' ){
    for( var attr in doc ){
      if( attr != "+name" && attr.charAt( 0 ) != "_" ){
        emit( [ attr, doc[attr] ], null );
      }
    }
  }
}

That yields something similar to:

{"total_rows":108,"offset":0,"rows":[
{"id":"d802d119b101502a980eb5970e002834","key":["age",22],"value":null},
{"id":"d802d119b101502a980eb5970e002c18","key":["age",52],"value":null},
{"id":"d802d119b101502a980eb5970e003bb8","key":["age",102],"value":null},
{"id":"d802d119b101502a980eb5970e003ed3","key":["age",102],"value":null},
{"id":"d802d119b101502a980eb5970e004cf4","key":["age",102],"value":null},
{"id":"d802d119b101502a980eb5970e00572e","key":["age",102],"value":null},
{"id":"d802d119b101502a980eb5970e0057b4","key":["age",102],"value":null},
....
{"id":"d802d119b101502a980eb5970e01b763","key":["first_name","al"],"value":null},
{"id":"d802d119b101502a980eb5970e01be56","key":["first_name","al"],"value":null},
{"id":"d802d119b101502a980eb5970e002c18","key":["first_name","joe"],"value":null},
{"id":"d802d119b101502a980eb5970e002834","key":["first_name","Robert"],"value":null}
]}

Something to think about: complex values of attributes.. if that will still work in an elegant fashion. Should, but worth noting in this issue to think about more.
