Can someone tell me or point me to documentation on how to view CouchDB's document metadata; how to add additional 'comments' at the document attribute level? There isn’t really any separate metadata for CouchDB documents. The metadata is simply a set of reserved document properties/attributes whose names begin with an “_”, such as “_id”, “_rev”, “_attachments”, etc. If you want to add a comment-like attribute, just pick a new name that’s neither _-prefixed nor being used for any other purpose by users of your documents. —Jens
