Clarification needed #22

Closed macintux closed 11 years ago

Not sure what this paragraph means (specifically the opening clause):

Though not implemented in Pipe, Riak KV's mapreduce implementation is the primary user of the Spidermonkey JavaScript engine---the second use is precommit hooks.

coderoshi commented 11 years ago

typo. should have been "Though now implemented in Pipe"

Ok, but what does Pipe really have to do with it?

coderoshi commented 11 years ago

Because the javascript is configured under KV, even though it's actually a Pipe thing.

macintux commented 11 years ago

Not sure it adds enough value for the mental whiplash I experienced.

coderoshi commented 11 years ago

I think "under riak_kv, though implemented in Pipe" is descriptive enough to answer the fair question "why isn't this configured under riak_pipe".
