Allow URL rewriting to be specified as a user-defined function instead of a
regex pattern
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: COUCHDB-651
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COUCHDB-651
Project: CouchDB
Issue Type: Improvement
Affects Versions: 0.11
Reporter: David Richardson
URL rewriting is currently specified with a regular expression. A user-defined
function would make this more flexible and has the potential to be much clearer
than complex regex patterns. A regex pattern is a degenerate case of the
user-specified function.
One (but not the only) usage case is role-based document selection.
The role is retrieved from userctx and a startkey/endkey component is appended
to the URL to limit the scope of available documents.
