The most efficient way to update a lot of docs currently is to download all
of the docs via a view query - try the `includedocs` query parameter - and
then to bulk update those docs with a single POST request.

There is no mechanism for updating through the view directly.

Hi
       CouchDB takes care of the view slicing for you (see
http://wiki.apache.org/couchdb/HTTP_view_API. You'd write a view that emits
some key:values, and then do the query you describe (?key=foo) to return
only the values with key = foo. You can also do startkey=foo and endkey=bar
to get a slice of the view (e.g. look for continuous data in a range). You
don't need to worry about this in writing your view, since the view is
generated for all keys.
Cheers
