Note: Adding the Auth header manually like this is **not** a good idea in
nano 9:
``` javascript
requestDefaults: {
headers: {
Authorization:"Basic " + new
Buffer("admin:"+cdbpass).toString('base64')
}
}
```
Because this will cause nano to log passwords on errors, see [this
issue](https://github.com/apache/couchdb-nano/issues/255). [This
commit](https://github.com/apache/couchdb-nano/commit/c84d0a43b13edc888a2a339f7fb057ad66d3d3fe)
shows how passwords are redacted.
So if you don't want to use cookie auth (which requires to await
`nano.auth(..)`), this is a good way to go with special characters inside the
password:
``` javascript
const opts = {
url: `http://couchdb:5984`,
requestDefaults: {
headers: {
auth: {
username: "admin",
password: "/Pa$$|w0rd^",
},
}
}
}
const couchdb = nano(opts)
```
