Use one of these techniques to install node and npm without having to sudo. Discussed in more detail at http://joyeur.com/2010/12/10/installing-node-and-npm/ Note: npm >=0.3 is *safer* when using sudo.
echo 'export PATH=$HOME/local/bin:$PATH' >> ~/.bashrc
. ~/.bashrc
mkdir ~/local
mkdir ~/node-latest-install
cd ~/node-latest-install
curl http://nodejs.org/dist/node-latest.tar.gz | tar xz --strip-components=1
./configure --prefix=~/local
make install # ok, fine, this step probably takes more than 30 seconds...
curl https://www.npmjs.org/install.sh | sh

The CouchDB replicator database

1. Introduction to the replicator database

A database where you PUT/POST documents to trigger replications and you DELETE to cancel ongoing replications. These documents have exactly the same content as the JSON objects we used to POST to /_replicate/ (fields "source", "target", "create_target", "continuous", "doc_ids", "filter", "query_params".

Replication documents can have a user defined "_id". Design documents (and _local documents) added to the replicator database are ignored.

The default name of this database is _replicator. The name can be changed in the .ini configuration, section [replicator], parameter db.

Simple example of a Node.js proxy to CouchDB GET requests
var http = require('http'),
request = require('request'), // request module from https://github.com/mikeal/request
url = require('url');
http.createServer(function (req, res) {
var href = url.parse(req.url,true).href;
request('http://127.0.0.1:5984' + href).pipe(res);
}).listen(1337);
// now try something like http://127.0.0.1:1337/your_db_name/_all_docs/?limit=10

A very basic example in Javascript of how to attach a file to a CouchDB document. This will work wether or not the Document ID you define exists.

A very basic example in Javascript of how to attach a file to a CouchDB document. This will work wether or not the Document ID you define exists.
Log in at /_utils, upload this file to a document, and then view it for your own uploader. See the code for comments. ajaxSubmit() is the magic that attaches
as long as the Couch Doc exists because you can't submit a new Couch Document with an attachment.
