For each record in the local file, decide whether it's different from what's in CouchDB. If it is, PUT the document to the database. How to tell whether it's different depends on what's in your file. If you have timestamps it's pretty easy. Otherwise you may have to do something like storing a local side file with checksums of every document, and then comparing the values in the file against the saved checksums. The checksum file can also store the rev ID from the last time you saved to CouchDB, which will make saving easier. —Jens
