This file inserts random image descriptors in Couch DB. # of records to be inserted is passed as argument. It assumes that couchdb is locally installed and running. All the modules of import list needs to be installed to use this. Sample command would be "python couchdb_generate.py <Number of records>" . Table Name will be "test"+<Numberofrecords>.
