Redirect from _list function?

[Zachary Zolton]

Hello,

Should I be able to do a redirect from a _list function?

I ask because I've tried defining the following _list function:

function(head, req) {
  return {
    'code': 301,
    'headers': { 'Location': 'http://www.google.com/' }
  };
}

And, here's what happens when I try to hit it:

$ curl -i 
'http://localhost:5984/db/_design/ddoc/_list/test-redirect/some-view?key=%22foo%22'
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Vary: Accept
Transfer-Encoding: chunked
Server: CouchDB/0.11.0a9fd42dc1-git (Erlang OTP/R12B)
Etag: "46014W5JDRLKZF5SECP2D44YH"
Date: Thu, 24 Sep 2009 22:23:14 GMT
Content-Type: application/json

curl: (56) Received problem 2 in the chunky parser

Obviously, this does not look like a redirect.  :^(  Do I seem to be
doing anything wrong here?


Thanks!

Zach
