Send data
---------
Key: COUCHDB-1219
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COUCHDB-1219
Project: CouchDB
Issue Type: New Feature
Reporter: Johnny Weng Luu
Priority: Minor
With CouchDB the application server landscape has changed. The database can now
handle almost all logic that is data related, eg. validation, updating,
formatting etc.
It has a HTTP server for incoming requests but one thing I find missing is a
HTTP client that can push the data to other servers.
What I have to do right now to send the data to an external service is to setup
a server (node.js) that listens on the _changes feed.
When there is a document meant for being delivered through email node.js will
send a HTTP request to a email service (sendgrid).
I think it would make sense if CouchDB could make HTTP requests on document
changes, so that we can eliminate that extra layer.
Why only HTTP server for data but not HTTP client for data.
(This would make even more sense if CouchDB was redesigned with node.js).
