replication users

Are there any special considerations when replicating the _users database as opposed to normal databases? Is this a good way to share users between servers that should share users and trust one another?

Re: Common security pattern?

If a user can access a document via Futon, he can access via the CouchDB API if he knows what he's doing. The data is exposed one way or the other if you store it in documents that users can access. There is no key-level protection on a document that I am aware of. Correct me if I'm wrong, someo

Pete, You need to write a view that returns more than just LogTopicToLogEntryMap. Have it return the topic and entries too and then you can use include_docs to get it all in one query. On Mon, Nov 30, 2009 at 5:05 PM, Pete Hodgson wrote: > Roger, please accept my apologies. I'll be sure to n

Lists are capable of building up arbitrary data structures much like what a client would have to do to sort it. I don't know if there is some limit on the memory usage that a list can have. If there is I have not heard of it. Right now I'm using lists to do 'joins' of my multi-doc-type views. I

You have two options. 1) use couchdb-lucene 2) emit multiple rows for each document. something like this: function(doc) { var iterDate = doc.startDate; var endDate = doc.endDate; while (iterDate < endDate) { emit(iterDate); iterDate.setDay(iterDate.getDay() + 1) // mak
