http://code.google.com/p/ecouch

- It assumes that the inets application is running
Features
- Follows all the OTP design principles
- Can run stand-alone with its own supervision tree or be included inside an existing supervision tree
- Guarantees synchronism between calls and their responses
erlcouch
It is quite easy to throw together a quick interface to CouchDB in Erlang using inets or ibrowse because CouchDB API is so easy. On such interface currently exists at:
http://code.google.com/p/erlcouch/ Documentation can be found as part of the library.
NOTE: erlcouch was discontinued, but picked up and pushed along at http://github.com/bdionne/erl-couch/
erlang_couchdb
Another Erlang library exists as erlang_couchdb. It is actively development and tries to do as little as possible.
http://github.com/ngerakines/erlang_couchdb/ There's a branch implementing a transactional layer for it. Scroll down for documentation: http://github.com/astro/erlang_couchdb/tree/couch_lier
