David Pilato commented on COUCHDB-1263:
---------------------------------------
Sure.
I'm working on the Elastic Search river. I add an option to discard
_attachements on client side.
But I was wondering if it could be a nice idea to have it on the server side.
At first, I thought that the _changes API was giving all fields (and the
attachment content itself) with the include_doc=true option. But as far as I
can see, _changes API provides only meta informations about attachments, not
the attachment itself.
So my improvement doesn't really improve something (I mean in term of speed and
data transfert size).
I think we can close this issue as a "won't be fix" issue...

> It could be useful to have a filter on attachements in _changes API.
> A call like below (note the filter_attachements=true new option) :
> http://localhost:5984/myindex/_changes?feed=continuous&heartbeat=10000&include_docs=true&filter_attachements=true
> will remove the _attachments field for each response.
> A JIRA seems to talk of a more wild improvement
> https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COUCHDB-390, but I would like to have a
> really easier way for attachements.
