Is there a way to determine if newDoc might have failed to create the document? What is the result of running the following?

use warnings;
use CouchDB::Client;

my $c = CouchDB::Client->new(uri => 'http://127.0.0.1:5984/');
my $db = $c->newDB('test');
my ($doc)

if ($db->docExists('12345')) {
    print "hello\n";
} else {
  $doc  = $db->newDoc('12345', undef, {'foo'=>'bar'})->create;
}

print $doc->retrieve('12345');
