Couchbase Scala SDK 1.7

The Couchbase Scala SDK allows Scala applications to access a Couchbase cluster — Capella or self-managed.

Quickstart Guide | SDK Release Notes | Scala SDK API Reference

What’s the point of a fast and scalable database if it’s not easy to develop for? Couchbase gives you the Scala APIs to work with Capella, our managed solution, or self-managed options in your private Cloud or datacenter.

  • Data Ops (CRUD)

  • SQL++ Query (OLTP)

val json = JsonObject("foo" -> "bar", "baz" -> "qux")

collection.upsert("document-key", json) match {
  case Success(result)    => println("Document upsert successful")
  case Failure(exception) => println("Error: " + exception)
}
val statement = """select * from `travel-sample` limit 10;"""
val result: Try[QueryResult] = cluster.query(statement)
val request = SearchRequest.vectorSearch(VectorSearch(VectorQuery("vector_field", vectorQuery)))

val result: Try[SearchResult] = scope.search("vector-index", request)

Couchbase is a large platform — covering many services — and Couchbase SDKs are not thin wrappers generated around a REST API, but well thought out interfaces to the platform that make it easier to design and maintain your client code, and work with Couchbase in more natural ways for your platform. Install the SDK, and explore in the way that works best for you.

Installing the SDK via Scala Build Tool
libraryDependencies += "com.couchbase.client" %% "scala-client" % "1.7.5"

The links below will take you where you want to go — as will the navigation on the left-hand side of this page. But if you don’t know exactly where you need to go, try one of the following:

  • Our Quickstart Guide introduces the SDK with a quick install, and CRUD examples against the Data Service.

  • Couchbase’s familiar SQL-family query language and fuzzy search options (including vector search) are introduced on the Querying Your Data page.

  • The Scala SDK docs are, necessarily, just a sub-set Scala SDK API Reference — and a complete reference of all APIs can be found there.

  • For a fuller orientation, there is a guide to the Scala SDK docs
