Add a _bulk_update handler similar to _update but for bulk document changes
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: COUCHDB-1303
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COUCHDB-1303
Project: CouchDB
Issue Type: New Feature
Reporter: Benjamin Young
_update handlers are great (and getting better!) for building RESTful API's
inside CouchDB. One limitation I found tonight is that _update can only do a
single document at a time. If the API I'm building needs to update multiple
docs (in a similar fashion to _bulk_docs), then an outside "proxy" script is
required. It would be ideal to have a _bulk_update handler to allow for the
same functionality as _update, but with the ability to insert multiple
documents at once.
Perhaps the current _update handler API could be extended to support multiple
IDs/documents, but a separate API endpoint would be seem reasonable if needed.
Thanks for considering this idea.
