Integrating xamarin, CouchBaseLite, MVVMCross and SyncGateway such that View changes with database

Question

I am working on a xamarin project where i use CouchBase Lite as my Local database. I also want to use MVVMCross library. Could anyone specify where should i include couchbase-Lite library, MVVMCross - hot tuna library(like class library or portable class library or platform specif project) such that view model gets notified about the changes in Couchdatabase.

Basically i want to change the view whenver there is a change in database i want to change the view with mvvmcross. Am using syncgateway to sync with server Couchbase bucket.

I am new to Xamarin, MVVM and CouchBaselite. I couldnt find any concrete example for all this.

Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

I would perhaps just use the CouchBaseLite Xamarin Component. If you are wanting to access this in your PCL Core project you will probably have to create some sort of wrapper around the component and inject it properly into each platform. You can use the MvvmCross plugins wiki to get you started.
