Hello, I have some sound files in a couchdb database (not related to web2py). My web2py application has access to this database, and I want to stream the sound files so that they can be listened with the HTML audio tag, like this:
<audio src="http://www.myserver.com/.../track06.mp3"; preload="auto"></audio> I am planning to do this streaming as follows: response.stream(open(filename),chunk_size=4096) But I have some open questions: 1. My "filename" is not in the local filesystem, but in a couchdb database, accessible via REST. How can I "open" that? 2. What kind of request will the audio tag send when it is activated, GET/POST/...? Can this be handled with web2py? Thanks, Daniel --
