Consider using couchbase standard URI scheme

[ingenthr]

I'm new to PureScript, but after learning a bit more about this I looked into the source to better understand how connections are established and created.

I came across the section on Couchbase URIs.:

purescript-quasar/src/Quasar/Mount/Couchbase.purs

Line 73 in 32568a0

unless (scheme == Just uriScheme) $ Left "Expected 'couchbase' URL scheme"

You may not have been aware of it, but we do have a documented connection string format that may be useful to use here. It's standardized across all of the SDKs and many of our CLI tools. You'll find details here:
https://github.com/couchbaselabs/sdk-rfcs/blob/master/rfc/0011-connection-string.md

One thing I couldn't determine from browsing all of the source is if you're using any of our libs already. You'd, of course, get the connstr for free if you do along with loadbalancing, understanding topology changes, etc.

Thanks for the comment!

This library is for the front-end of SlamData, so the URL format you see here is for the Couchbase connector in Quasar (the back-end component) rather than something that will be used to talk to Couchbase directly.

Ah, Quasar was the thing I didn't find when searching github.com/slamdata. :) I'd not followed quite yet all of the dependency graph. Thanks!

By the way, looking underneath, it looks like it's using our client through scala.
