Paul Joseph Davis commented on COUCHDB-587:
-------------------------------------------
I think the "external script" refernece in COUCHDB-393 is misleading. That was
meant as "a script not under CouchDB's control." Passing port info along to the
_external handlers should be cake. There should be an example of grabbing that
port info in couch_httpd.erl somewhere after the loop starts as it writes that
to the log.
Also 393 would've been trivial had a -S option not been vetoed.

> Project: CouchDB
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Reporter: Mark Hammond
>
> When requests are made to an external, couch DB provides a 'peer' item in the
> request info with the address of the couchdb instance (eg, 127.0.0.1).
> CouchDB should also provide the port on this address, so externals can
> reliably make requests back to couch.
> The comments in COUCHDB-393 imply this might not be trivial.
