Ability to set limit for queries

[stickbyatlas]

Hi folks,

I was surprised to discover that the query function in the adapter was implemented without the ability to specify a limit param, meaning that query results will always return 25 results or less. Is there a reason that the adapter implements query with only the ability to set a selector and a sort param? I've currently got around this limitation by overriding query in my application adapter, but I'm puzzled as to why this feature was omitted in the first place.

Anybody care to elaborate?

It is a breaking change introduced in CouchDB 2.1.0 as far is I can tell. See pouchdb-community/relational-pouch#81

I think that you can actually specify a limit and skip to normal queries in the adapter. The documentation is just not explicitly stating it, instead referring to the pouchdb-find documentation (https://github.com/pouchdb/pouchdb/tree/master/packages/node_modules/pouchdb-find). Noticed that the link in the documentation is broken though.

The issue linked above refers to "internal" queries that ember-pouch performs when following hasMany links.

I was mistaken above, the limit and skip are currently ignored by the adapter. In #193 the implementation is on its way.
