How to search with couchdb nano

I am trying to search couchdb with nano, as described here:

https://github.com/dscape/nano#dbsearchdesignname-searchname-params-callback

But I get 'document is missing attachment'.

var config = require('./config.js');
var nano = require('nano')(config.dbhost);

var couch = nano.db.use('my-database');

couch.search('object-views', 'by-content', {q: 'hello'}, function(err, data) {
    if(err) {
        console.log('ERROR ', err);
    } else {
        console.log(data);
    }
})

EDIT this is my view code:

function (doc) {
  if(doc.type && doc.type==='message') {
    emit(doc.text.toLowerCase(), 1);
  }
}

So I looked inside nano code and found that the search is designed for Cloudant only. It calls a view of type "search".

So instead of calling _designdoc/name/_view/something, it calls:

_designdoc/name/_search/something

So basically, use db.view
