Hi,
Objective : is to create an user which will be in _users collection and then
provide eventdb member access to the user.
things I tried out
1. For adding user
curl -X PUT http://admin:*****@localhost:5984/_users/org.couchdb.user:dan -H
"Accept: application/json" -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{"name":
"dan", "password": "apple", "roles": [], "type": "user"}'
which results in below message
{"error":"not_found","reason":"Database does not exist."}
I searched on google for this error and come to know that system collection
like _users are moved to port 5986 hence I fired below api
curl -X PUT http://admin:*****@localhost:5986/_users/org.couchdb.user:dan -H
"Accept: application/json" -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{"name":
"dan", "password": "apple", "roles": [], "type": "user"}'
I was able to create an user. (please note port number 5986)
2. Provide eventdb member access to dan
I executed below command to provide an access
curl -X PUT http://localhost:5984/eventdb/_security -u admin:***** -H
"Content-Type: application/json" -d '{"admins": { "names": [], "roles": [] },
"members": { "names": ["dan"], "roles": [] } }'
which returns below result for me
{"ok":true}
3. Accessing eventdb using dan's credential
curl -u dan:apple http://localhost:5984/eventdb
it results in
{"error":"unauthorized","reason":"Name or password is incorrect."}
I was following documentation at
http://docs.couchdb.org/en/2.0.0/intro/security.html
thanks for your help.
