it is based on my_first_couchdb_plugin skeleton

Compile

To compile your code, simply run:

make

The output should be something like this:

rebar compile
==> couchdb_currentdate_plugin (compile)
Compiled src/couchdb_currentdate_plugin.erl

The compiled results are stored in a directory called ebin/.

Create Plugin

make plugin

and you will see something like this:

> make plugin
rebar compile
==> couchdb_currentdate_plugin (compile)
