Jan Lehnardt commented on COUCHDB-2541: --------------------------------------- Are you proposing we should have such a tool? Or do you have one? There is https://github.com/dscape/futoncli which aims to do something similar and afaik @dscape is up for donating it to the ASF. Maybe we can roll it into the `couchdb` script (by way of clever wrapping, I don’t want to do all this in pure shell :), so it is all one thing. (maybe this is a bad idea, dunno :) Either way though, I really like this :) > couchdbctl > ---------- > > Key: COUCHDB-2541 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COUCHDB-2541 > Project: CouchDB > Issue Type: New Feature > Security Level: public(Regular issues) > Reporter: Alexander Shorin > > couchdbctl is CouchDB control service utility that aims to help users manage > and inspect their CouchDB instance, keeping it well and health. > Few ideas what it may do: > - register users with easy: > {code} > $ couchdbctl users add Jan > Password: > {code} > hides routines to create /_users/org.couchdb.users:Jan document with all > required fields; > - run service operations: > {code} > $ couchdbctl db compact > {code} > - connect to node and provide shell: > {code} > $ couchdbctl attach > {code} > - run security audit as like as > [audit-couchdb|https://github.com/iriscouch/audit_couchdb] or > [couchdb-auditor|https://github.com/kxepal/python-couchdb-auditor] does; > {code} > $ couchdbctl audit > {code} > - see erltop; > {code} > $ couchdbctl top > {code} > - monitor stats and active tasks in realtime; > - run replications with single command without worry about JSON and required > fields: > {code} > $ couchdbctl replicate foo http://example.com/bar --continuous --create-target > {code} > - check cluster health, add/remove nodes to it; > - explain errors in logs: > {code} > $ couchdbctl errors > [error] [<0.125.0>] {error_report,<0.30.0>, > {<0.125.0>,crash_report, > [[{initial_call,{couch_file,init,['Argument__1']}}, > {pid,<0.125.0>}, > {registered_name,[]}, > {error_info, > {exit, > {{badmatch,{error,eacces}}, > [{couch_file,init,1, > ... > eacess error - insufficient or invalid permissions, please verify that > couchdb user has all r permissions to the following paths: > /var/lib/couchdb - read+write > /var/log/couchdb - read+write > /etc/couchdb - read+write > /usr/lib64/couchdb/erlang/lib/couch-2.0.0/priv/lib - read > {code} > And so on and so forth.
