Mhh. There may have been a misunderstanding here:
all I want to do is to invoke the equivalent of curl http://localhost:5984/users/_design/openid/_view/users_by_openids?key=<openid> but from inside an authorization handler. Multiple openids can be mapped to a single user, so I can't retrieve by user id as the default handler does. cheers On Tue, Jan 12, 2010 at 4:51 PM, Paul Davis <[email protected]> wrote: > Matteo, > > While you could technically do this, it's quite a violation of the > properties required for map functions.
