[PATCH] Improved Accept/Content-Type negotiation
------------------------------------------------
Key: COUCHDB-234
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COUCHDB-234
Project: CouchDB
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: HTTP Interface
Affects Versions: 0.9
Reporter: Brian Candler
Priority: Minor
Attachments: couchdb-mime.diff
Suggested improvement for Content-Type of responses
Return Content-Type: application/json unless:
* client provides an Accept: header; and
* header includes text/plain, text/* or */*; and
* header does not have application/json earlier in the list
This is not proper RFC 2616 negotiation - q factors are ignored - but maybe
it's better than current behaviour. Tested with Firefox (which still views
responses as text), but not other browsers.
