2010-11-05HTTP proxy handler.Paul Joseph Davis
The second of two new features to replace the _externals protocols. This allows users to configure CouchDB to proxy requests to an external HTTP server. The external HTTP server is not required to be on the same host running CouchDB. The configuration looks like such: [httpd_global_handlers] _google = {couch_httpd_proxy, handle_proxy_req, <<"http://www.google.com">>} You can then hit this proxy at the url: http://127.0.0.1:5984/_google If you add any path after the proxy name, or make a request with a query string, those will be appended to the URL specified in the configuration. Ie: http://127.0.0.1:5984/_google/search?q=plankton would translate to: http://www.google.com/search?q=plankton Obviously, request bodies are handled as expected. git-svn-id: https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/couchdb/trunk@1031877 13f79535-47bb-0310-9956-ffa450edef68
