[FIXED] java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.apache.http.impl.client.cache.CacheConfig

Issue

I'm trying to use CouchDB with JAVA. It's horrible!!! Here the code i found on the net:

package project.couchdb;

import java.net.MalformedURLException;
import org.ektorp.CouchDbConnector;
import org.ektorp.CouchDbInstance;
import org.ektorp.http.HttpClient;
import org.ektorp.http.StdHttpClient;
import org.ektorp.impl.StdCouchDbConnector;
import org.ektorp.impl.StdCouchDbInstance;
import org.ektorp.support.DesignDocument;


public class CouchConnect {

    public static void main(String[] args) throws MalformedURLException{

        //connection
        HttpClient client = new StdHttpClient.Builder().url("http://127.0.0.1:5984").build();
        CouchDbInstance dbIstance = new StdCouchDbInstance(client);

        //database
        CouchDbConnector db = new StdCouchDbConnector("test", dbIstance);
        db.createDatabaseIfNotExists();

        //document
        DesignDocument doc = new DesignDocument("test_doc");
        db.create(doc);
    }
}

The errors:

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/http/impl/client/cache/CacheConfig

I've just added some .jar because console gave me error like 'ClassNotFoundException' but this time i can't find the .jar file to add. Have someone te link to download the .jar or any other solution?

PS: I'm using eclipse on windows 10 if it's relevant

After adding the remaining .jar i have thhis errors:

Solution

You also need httpclient-cache in your list of libraries.

This seems pretty early to declare it "horrible".
