Benoît, I did what you proposed and it behaves exactly as before
Ok i did some testing and this is what I figured out.
This is my testing setup: I created a new database (test) that doesn't use
any VHost rules.
Inside it I created a design document that only has rewrites field. I will
present test results exactly as per configuration I used.
I always sent the same document contained in file "example" - namely:
{
"type": "comment"
}
Below are the test results:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
## Test 1:
# rewrites config:
[
{
"to": "../..",
"from": ":db"
}
]
# Executed command 1.1:
$ curl -d @example -H "Content-type:application/json" -e
http://localhost:5984/test http://localhost:5984/test/
{"ok":true,"id":"ce8b504d63666c9257cc07537c00aa70","rev":"1-505a221d0aef5d664f29d6afdae01293"}
# Comment: expected result - everything is fine.
# Executed command 1.2:
$ curl -X PUT -d @example -H "Content-type:application/json"
http://localhost:5984/test/_design/test/_rewrite/test/randomid324324
{"error":"not_found","reason":"missing"}
# Comment: result expected since there is no ID parameter passed through -
due to the rewrite rule

Apparently these are two different issues.
First handling of rewrites for POST requests and the second is the problem
with Content types?
Also I would be extremely happy to find out what are more exact rules for
pattern matching? I have found this site (
http://caolanmcmahon.com/on_designs_undocumented.html) which provides some
answers. I have also read somewhere that rewriting is basically Erlang
pattern matching ... so should I read up more about the topic in Erlang
documentation?
There is also a question I have that wasn't answered anywhere - is it
possible for multiple rewrites to apply to single request? If so what is the
precedence? If not - what is the precedence in that case.
Thank you for any response.
Kind regards, -Janez
