Simple example of a Node.js proxy to CouchDB GET requests
var http = require('http'),
request = require('request'), // request module from https://github.com/mikeal/request
url = require('url');
http.createServer(function (req, res) {
var href = url.parse(req.url,true).href;
request('http://127.0.0.1:5984' + href).pipe(res);
}).listen(1337);
// now try something like http://127.0.0.1:1337/your_db_name/_all_docs/?limit=10

init.d script for node.js for debian

# SOME INFOS : fairly standard (debian) init script.
# Note that node doesn't create a PID file (hence --make-pidfile)
# has to be run in the background (hence --background)
# and NOT as root (hence --chuid)

The CouchDB replicator database

1. Introduction to the replicator database

A database where you PUT/POST documents to trigger replications and you DELETE to cancel ongoing replications. These documents have exactly the same content as the JSON objects we used to POST to /_replicate/ (fields "source", "target", "create_target", "continuous", "doc_ids", "filter", "query_params".

Replication documents can have a user defined "_id". Design documents (and _local documents) added to the replicator database are ignored.

The default name of this database is _replicator. The name can be changed in the .ini configuration, section [replicator], parameter db.
