Paul Joseph Davis updated COUCHDB-651:
--------------------------------------
Skill Level: Regular Contributors Level (Easy to Medium)
> Allow URL rewriting to be specified as a user-defined function instead of a
> regex pattern
> -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: COUCHDB-651
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COUCHDB-651
> Project: CouchDB
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Affects Versions: 0.11
> Reporter: David Richardson
>
> URL rewriting is currently specified with a regular expression. A
> user-defined function would make this more flexible and has the potential to
> be much clearer than complex regex patterns. A regex pattern is a degenerate
> case of the user-specified function.
> One (but not the only) usage case is role-based document selection.
> The role is retrieved from userctx and a startkey/endkey component is
> appended to the URL to limit the scope of available documents.
