Store Revision of Attachments
-----------------------------
Key: COUCHDB-217
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COUCHDB-217
Project: CouchDB
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: Sven Helmberger
I'm writing some multi-app hosting thing and besides using couchdb as database
it also stores all images and stylesheets and scripts etc for the applications
as attachments. I have one couchdb database per app and
store all resources on a single document to keep the same relative hierarchical
structure I have in my apps.
I can now fetch that document and use it to quickly find out the name, lenght
and content-type of all my attachments. When the document revision changes I
know that at least one of the attachments has changed, but I don't know which.
Wouldn't it be possible to store the revision in which the attachment was
created with the attachment?
_attachments could then contain these revisions as additional property and
couchdb could use that revision as ETag when serving the attachment content
which would be better than using the documents revision like it is now.
I don't know the code, so I don't know wheter this is possible..
