This is turning into an incredible rabbit hole of programming languages and slightly relates to the recent discussion on that. So far, I've come across: Go, Python (2 and 3), Erlang, C (somehow?), JavaScript, Bash, Groovy (mostly via Gradle), and that's not even touching on the languages in use here!
Anyways, the CouchDB patch to support DNS SRV records looks like a fruitful approach, so I'm trying to fix up the existing PR first before attempting the operator-based route. I did look at KubeDB, and it looks neat, though notes on how to create a new database integration are scarce at the moment. That framework does look very useful, though, for building a proper K8s operator for CouchDB which would make our own Helm charts simpler.
