-------------------------------------------
A bit better reference: http://dataprotocols.org/ndjson/ ||
https://github.com/ndjson/ndjson-spec
Sounds good for me.
> Wrong Content-Type for continuous changes feed
> ----------------------------------------------
>
> Key: COUCHDB-2562
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COUCHDB-2562
> Project: CouchDB
> Issue Type: Bug
> Security Level: public(Regular issues)
> Reporter: Nathan Vander Wilt
>
> When a client requests a continuous changes feed and includes an "Accept:
> application/json" header, the response comes back as "Content-Type:
> application/json" even though the content is not parseable as JSON.
> I think the proper thing to do in this specific case is to respond with "406
> Not Acceptable", or if this is considered too extreme and HTTP allows it,
> proceed anyway but claim "Content-Type: application/x-ldjson" instead (see
> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Line_Delimited_JSON#MIME_Type_and_File_Extensions).
> This is an issue that some acknowledged as a bug during the discussion on
> https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COUCHDB-604 but didn't get its own
> ticket.
