Christopher Bonhage commented on COUCHDB-1229:
----------------------------------------------
I encountered this as well; digging through src/couch_httpd_show.erl,
handle_doc_show_req/3 appears to handle the "/" character in Document IDs
properly:
DocParts = [DocId|Rest],
DocId1 = ?l2b(string:join([?b2l(P)|| P <- DocParts], "/")),
It seems like a bug that the _show handler joins the path parts back together,
but the _update handler does not.
Obviously / is an important character in URL paths, but I don't see how that
affects the trailing path parts here:
database/_design/ddoc/_update/handler/docidpart1/docidpart2
Am I wrong?
> _update handler doesn't support slashes in doc _id

> Key: COUCHDB-1229
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COUCHDB-1229
> Project: CouchDB
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: HTTP Interface
> Affects Versions: 1.1
> Reporter: Simon Leblanc
> Labels: URI, id, update
>
> Let's say you have:
> - a doc with _id foo/bar
> - a show function named baz
> - a update function named baz
> Then _show/baz/foo/bar is valid but _update/baz/foo/bar is not. Only
> _update/baz/foo%2Fbar works.
> This is particularly annoying when you want to rewrite /something/* to
> _update/baz/foo/* (rewriting /something/* to _show/baz/foo/* works perfectly).
