> Key: COUCHDB-1779
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COUCHDB-1779
> Project: CouchDB
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: Database Core, HTTP Interface
> Reporter: Sebastian Podjasek
> Priority: Minor
>
> I'm wondering would it be possible to implement PATCH methods for document
> attachments.
> I'm currently facing a theoretical problem to upload large files over GSM
> network, my storage back-end is CouchDB with our own API served in front-end.

> processing of document after receiving last chunk, it would be great to just
> invoke this:
> PATCH

> HTTP/1.1
> Content-Type: application/octet-string
> Range: bytes=1200-1300
> Content-Length: 100
> What do you think about this. Is it theoretically possible.
